id=\"h-advantage-scotiabank-passport-visa-infinite-card-0\">Advantage: Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite* Card+<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" title=\"Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite* Card\" href=\"\/go\/scotiabank-passport-visa-infinite-card\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite*+ Card<\/a> takes this category thanks to its 6 (!) complimentary airport lounge passes and its ability to save you 2.5% on foreign transaction fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are very few credit cards in the Canadian market that offer zero foreign transaction fees, so this perk is quite unique and can save you a good amount of money when you travel and whenever you purchase something online in a foreign currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bottom-line\">Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we&#8217;ve explored all the important categories, we&#8217;re left to decide: which card is the best?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comparing both the&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" title=\"CIBC Aventura<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Visa Infinite* Card\" href=\"\/go\/cibc-aventura-visa-infinite-card\/\" rel=\"noindex\">CIBC Aventura<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Visa Infinite* Card<\/a> and the&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" title=\"Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite* Card\" href=\"\/go\/scotiabank-passport-visa-infinite-card\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite*+ Card<\/a>, we found that each card stands out in its own way, so choosing a singular winner wouldn&#8217;t really be fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can only get one new credit card and you&#8217;re looking to save money on a flight, you may want to focus your attention on the&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" title=\"CIBC Aventura<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Visa Infinite* Card\" href=\"\/go\/cibc-aventura-visa-infinite-card\/\" rel=\"noindex\">CIBC Aventura<sup>&reg;<\/sup> Visa Infinite* Card<\/a>, which offers the highest redemption value, free airport lounge access, excellent travel insurance, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, if you&#8217;re looking to save on travel and international credit card purchases, the <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite* Card\" href=\"\/go\/scotiabank-passport-visa-infinite-card\/\" rel=\"noindex\">Scotiabank Passport Visa Infinite*+ Card<\/a> offers no FX fees, easy travel redemptions (though for a lower value than the CIBC card), complimentary airport lounge access and travel insurance. This card also offers convenient redemption options for cardholders staying close to home, with its ability to exchange points for free groceries, dining, and entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, the best card is the one that suits your spending and redemption preferences, whether that&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/save-travel-flights-hotels\/\">saving on flights around the world<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/how-to-save-grocery\/\">keeping your grocery bill under control<\/a>.<br>\n<br>\nIf you&#8217;d like
