Things to Look Out For
- High annual fee of $395, requires frequent flying to justify

- More complex perks compared to entry-level cards, best suited for heavy spenders and frequent travelers
Our Take
The Atmos Rewards Summit is designed for frequent Alaska or Hawaiian Airlines flyers who want lounge access, companion awards, and faster elite status qualification. The annual fee is steep, but the value of the welcome bonus, lounge passes, and companion benefits can easily outweigh the cost if you travel often. Casual travelers may find the cheaper Atmos Ascent card more practical, while the Summit shines for those seeking premium perks and status acceleration.
