Suggestion on Vistara Co-Branded Card?

[Harry13]

I’m looking to move away from Axis Magnus. Tried giving a shot to Amex Plat Travel but acceptability is a major challenge in offline stores and fuel stations and it is forcing me to use my Magnus & HDFC Regalia Gold. Both of them are not as rewarding.
I’m considering Vistara co-branded cards now.

Heavy spends on: Fuel, Online, GVs, Insurance.

Suggest me one from the following:
1. Axis Vistara Infinite (do domestic business class tickets even make sense? Doesn’t fancy me tbh)
2. Axis Vistara Signature
3. SBI Vistara Prime
4. IDFC First Vistara

i. Is there any challenge in using these complimentary tickets? Availability issue?
ii. How early do we need to book and what’s the validity of each ticket?
iii. How many tickets can we redeem in a single flight?
iv. Do these cards, especially SBI, work in Amazon/Flipkart sales?
v. How rewarding is SBI Gyftr in terms of multiplying reward points?

Sorry for too many questions😅

Go for 3. SBI Vistara Prime

i. Sometimes.
ii. 9 Months validity (6 Months + 3 Months).
iii. As much as award tickets they have available.
iv. Yes
v. Never used tbh.

Great help. Thanks!
What's this 6+3 months validity though?

6 months to redeem the voucher(from the date of issuance) and another 3 months to use the voucher(from the date of redeeming).

This is validity of vocuher. But can i book a flight scheduled later (say 6 months) using these voucher or award tickets are only shared for shorter time periods

 

[clark_kent]

Yes. Award tickets if available can be booked for any dates later.

I have never done that, but there is no harm trying with small amount. SBI Vistara Prime doesn't have too many exclusions.
