About this video:
In this video I go through an unboxing of the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant card from American Express. I talk about why I’ve added this card to my wallet, go through some of its benefits, and discuss why I believe having this card makes sense for me.

With a whopping $650 annual price tag, the Bonvoy Brilliant is a luxury hotel and travel card that can sometimes be difficult justifying. After over a year of being on the fence, I finally added this card to my wallet and couldn't be more excited about it. Now join me as I explore and answer the real question - is it actually worth it?

I love that some people get value out of this card. It’s not for me, personally, because I find Bonvoy points to be worth ~0 for me.

I am considering this card, I normally stay at IHG property's and have the IHG credit card through Chase. IHG will always be my #1 pick but I'm looking for a good backup Brand, the 25 / month in food credits with the status are enough for me. Most of my travels are in Asia and I get upgraded almost every stay with IHG, getting upgraded to a Suite is amazing especially when you only book a basic or high floor room.

Great video man.

What limit did you get approved for? I’m thinking of applying but I’ve seen online the min limit for the brilliant is 3100 and I would hate to have a premium card with a limit anywhere CLOSE to that.
