How many travel credit cards is too many? It’s one of the most common questions travelers ask, and the answer isn’t as simple as a number.

In this episode, Chris and Katie break down how many travel credit cards actually make sense based on your travel goals, spending habits, and ability to stay organized. They talk through common fears around credit scores and annual fees, share signs you might have too many cards, and explain when opening another card can actually help your travel strategy.

Whether you’re just getting started or already deep into points and miles, this episode will help you decide when to open your next card, when to pause, and when fewer cards might lead to better travel.
