Ask any points and miles enthusiast, and they’ll tell you welcome offers are one of the most important parts of their strategy. The welcome offers we’ve earned with our cards have helped us book some great trips, both in the U.S. and abroad.
If you’re a frequent Delta Air Lines flyer, you’re probably eyeing one of its cobranded cards to help make your experience more enjoyable. Since American Express limits cardmembers to one welcome bonus per lifetime, applying for a Delta Amex card at the right time is very important.
In this guide, we’ll go over the offer history and best time to apply for each Delta card so you’re never in the dark about when to apply. Keep in mind that offers can change at any time, and some listed on this page may no longer be available.
Note that we’ll only discuss publicly available welcome offers here. However, you might receive targeted offers with more bonus miles.

Delta SkyMiles Blue American Express Card
If you want to start with a no-annual-fee Delta card (see rates and fees), the Delta SkyMiles Blue is for you. While it lacks the perks of more premium Delta cards, it still offers enough to make it worthwhile for the occasional Delta flyer.
Currently, new cardholders can earn 10,000 bonus miles after spending $1,000 on purchases in the first six months of card membership.
Highest welcome offer
The highest welcome offer we’ve seen on the Delta Blue Amex allowed new cardmembers to earn 15,000 bonus miles after spending $1,000 on purchases in the first three months of card membership (no longer available).
When to apply
If you see an offer over 10,000 miles, it’s a great time to apply. We haven’t seen this card receive a limited-time offer in several years, so it may not be worth waiting a long time for a potential elevated offer if you’re interested in applying.
