  • +Two free checked bags plus Premier Access smooths every trip
  • +5x on United spend is the best earn rate in the lineup

The Compound Verdict

Buy this card for the lounge, not the miles. If you would pay for a United Club membership anyway, the math is settled before the credits even start. If you fly United fewer than once a month, the Quest does the job at half the fee.
