Companion certificate
Each card membership year, upon renewal of this card, you receive a Delta SkyMiles Companion Certificate valid for a round-trip domestic First Class, Delta Comfort+®, or Main Cabin flight. Payment of no more than $80 for flight fees is required, and terms apply.
If you often have someone traveling with you, a companion certificate can be extremely valuable. Depending on the cabin you choose and the cost of the flight, you can easily save $500 or more with a companion certificate.
Free checked bag
You and up to eight travel companions on the same reservation can check one bag free of charge. The first checked bag normally costs $30 per segment with Delta, so this could save you $60 per round-trip flight. Many airline credit cards have this perk, and it's a must if you usually check a bag when you fly. Terms apply.

Global Entry/TSA PreCheck fee credit
This Delta card covers your membership fee with either Global Entry ($120) or TSA PreCheck (up to $85). You can use your statement credit every four years with Global Entry, or every 4.5 years with TSA PreCheck. Terms apply, select enrollment required.
Global Entry can cut your wait time at U.S. customs when returning to the country. TSA PreCheck allows you to go through expedited security lanes at many U.S. airports. While both programs have their benefits, Global Entry includes a TSA PreCheck membership, so it's the clear choice.
