Why it earns its spot

  • +One companion certificate use can outvalue the $350 fee
  • +MQD Headstart plus MQD earn on spend is a real status shortcut

Where it costs you

  • Companion certificate has blackout and fare-class fine print
  • $350 is a lot if you do not fly Delta several times a year

The Compound Verdict

This card lives or dies on the companion certificate. If you reliably book a domestic round trip with a colleague or spouse each year, it pays for itself. If you will not use the cert, drop to the Gold Business.
