American Express targets millennials with no-fee Delta credit card

For its latest airline card, American Express is looking for people who don’t travel. Yet. AmEx will debut the Blue Delta SkyMiles credit card this week, offering 2 miles per dollar spent at US restaurants and on Delta Air Lines purchases, and 1 mile per dollar spent everywhere else. It will be one of the few airline co-brand cards that don’t come with an annual fee, a decision AmEx and Delta made to appeal to millennial travellers, said Eva Reda, the lender’s executive VP of consumer partnerships and product development. The new card’s benefits won’t include priority boarding, free baggage check or airport lounge privileges offered with other Delta cards. <br/>
