Considering a new credit card to fuel your travels? Start here, and thanks for your support.

The best way to accumulate any miles and points is through credit card sign-up bonuses. Plain and simple.

Thanks to our partnership with CreditCards.com, The Forward Cabin now has several was in which you can support the blog, all while applying for your favorite miles and points credit cards.

Looking for a credit card?

You’ve come to the right place! First and foremost, I want to thank you for your support of this blog.

On the menu bar above…

…you’ll see a drop down list of credit card types…

…each linking to a page where you can peruse the various benefits of each specific credit card.

You’ll also find an option to apply. If you do, and are approved for the card, I may receive a commission for your generosity, and I thank you wholeheartedly for your support.

At the bottom of each blog post, you’ll also see a similar looking widget for a variety of credit cards. Clicking the “apply now” button will take you to a similar page like above, again where you can see a list of credit cards, their bonuses, benefits and options to apply.

But Jamie, why is this important?

Well, to be honest, it’s not the most important blog post of the week. It’s not breaking news, nor is it a new aircraft, route, or meal change. That said, it’s a way you can support this blog if you’ve felt that over the course of time you’ve learned something new. I try to publish posts on this blog that are interesting – in many cases, something unique, in other cases my opinion on something. If you find the blog helpful, and you learn something new from what I publish, I’d appreciate your support to keep this blog running by considering applying for a credit card through the above channels. Do you have to? Certainly not, but I appreciate your generosity.

As a warning, if you can’t use credit responsibly, please don’t apply for any new credit cards. Your free trip to Australia, a luxurious one night stay in Paris, or a cruise on the mediterranean isn’t worth the interest you’ll accrue if you don’t use your credit card similar to a debit card.

Let Me Know

If there’s a better offer on a credit card than what you see by using the links above, comment on the particular post you’re reading to let others know. Always apply for the better offer, even if it means not supporting me.
