Card Highlights
Chase Aer Lingus Visa Signature Card is a Credit Card
With a credit card, you can carry a balance and accrue interest if necessary. Note this is not advised by me. The points game does not work well, if you are carrying a balance and accruing interest. See #4 in Let’s Get Started To Earning Free Travel.
Card Rewards
Earn Avios with the card as a member of AerClub. Learn about the Aer Lingus AerClub Avios program here.
