if you travel international then Amex Plat - else, Chase Sapphire Reserve. I dropped the plat when it went to 695/yr. I think Chase UR points are better and more flexible than Amex.

I have the amex green card. Platinum has awesome benefits, but it's like $750/year.

When I was researching both cards I went with Chase route. Just fit was I was looking for more, been happy with my decision. Here's a good article so you can decide for yourself.
