Is this card right for you?
An accessible entry to the Avion program — same flexible points as the Avion VI, with no income requirement, in exchange for a flat (no travel-bonus) earn rate.
People earlier in their career who want into the Avion ecosystem without an income gate.
Anyone who values flexible, never-expiring points but can't clear the Avion VI's $60k bar.
You spend meaningfully on travel
the Avion VI's 1.25x travel rate earns more for the same fee.
You want cash back or spend heavily in foreign currencies.
Watch-outs Flat 1x earn is modest — the welcome bonus and point flexibility are the real draw, not the earn rate.
