Reply To: Best reward card for overseas use?

Curve and NatWest Travel is not the same proposition at all. You need a premium plan to get 1% back on curve and excludes gbp/eur. The free plan as mentioned above is terrible now.

NatWest card u get 1% back on accommodation and transport and 0.1% back on all others.

I’m on curve legacy black so quite lucky and mainly use this. So just put down any other credit card as a hold for hotels and checkout pay with curve.

But if I was new to all this today, I would be getting the NatWest travel card for the bigger ticket items + Chase debit for the smaller bits. Take the cashback and purchase avios via ba boost if you really want it. Not worth paying fx fees for avios.
