 TITLE: The Best Luxury Credit Cards of 2018 CONTENT: ### Best Luxury Card With Rewards: Chase Sapphire Reserve®\n**Overview**: The Chase Sapphire Reserve® not only offers an impressive suite of benefits, but also a world-class rewards program. For starters, you'll earn 60,000 points after you spend $4,000 in purchases over the first 3 months, plus 3 points per dollar spent on travel and dining, and 1 point per dollar spent elsewhere.\nWhat makes that offer so special is that your points are worth 50% more if you use them to book travel through Chase. So, 60,000 points could be worth $750. Alternatively, you can transfer your points to any of the issuer's airline and hotel partners. The card charges a $550 annual fee.\n**Here are some other details to know**:\n*   A $300 annual travel credit as reimbursement for travel purchases.\n*   Access to more than 1,000 airport lounges through the Priority Pass network.\n*   Up to a $100 statement credit for a Global Entry or TSA Pre✓ application fee.\n*   Special rental privileges with National Car Rental, Avis, and Silvercar.\n*   Trip cancellation or interruption insurance.\n*   Lost luggage reimbursement.\n*   Trip delay reimbursement.\n*   Emergency evacuation and transportation coverage.\n**Benefits**: Among the other luxury credit cards we reviewed, the Chase Sapphire Reserve® offers the best all-around package. The card's annual fee is mostly offset by the card's travel credit, and you can easily make up for the rest of it with the card's other various perks.\n**Drawbacks**: Despite the card's benefits, a $550 annual fee is still too much for some. And the card doesn't offer as many elite perks as some of the others we reviewed. Depending on your preference, it might not be the best option for you. END
