There might be special value for this type of card depending upon your situation. Cash is universal, so I prefer cash back cards.

Agree that the Southwest card is good, but not great. We use it because Southwest (and to a lesser extent Jet Blue) has by far the most and best priced direct flights between Orlando and Bradley airports, which is the best flying option between our two homes.
