Hi!

I'm looking to get another credit card because there's a couple of upcoming trips: one or two domestic, and one international (US - Hong Kong). Also want to treat my mom to a nice trip when she comes to visit in summer of 2024 (business class flight roundtrip US - hong kong, nice hotels etc).

Based on the info below, what do you think would make sense?
