Upward of 50 credit cards reward their customers with flights, upgrades, car rentals, hotel stays, and cruises. Each card differs in the kinds of prizes and the ways they're doled out, so what's the smartest approach for you? To figure that out, you need to do a bit of honest self-examination. For people who travel and spend a fair amount, one card's great rewards program may more than outweigh its annual fee. Others have no need to worry about a card's high annual percentage rate (APR) because they never leave a balance. People who don't charge all that much should realize that they'll probably never qualify for certain rewards. Which card is right for you depends on what kind of traveler-and spender-you are.
