It seems like you’re comparing between Venture X and Preferred?
I’d take a look at transfer partners and go from there.
Both have pretty tight personal card restrictions (2 personals on C1 and 5/24 on Chase).
I have both cards.
I applied for Venture X first and then CSP shortly after.
I like how straightforward the transfer partners are for Chase, but I use Capital One a lot more – 2X flat of everything and I use Turkish Airlines A LOT to fly between Hawaii and Texas (7,500 miles one way).
Award availability is hard to find to be honest, but pretty worth it.
To Europe, I think I’d choose to transfer to Virgin Atlantic – which both Chase and Capital One transfer to.
