ENBD Voyager World Credit Card

ENBD Voyager World Elite Credit Card
Four answers compare ENBD Voyager World and ENBD Voyager World Elite on general everyday spend; travel and flights; spending abroad; spend at these cards' own merchants. Each is priced on a month of its own, because a household that spends heavily on one thing does not spend the same total as one that does not. Within an answer both cards see the identical month.
AED 5,300 of that total sits at Voyager Travel Portal, which is where the co-brand rates apply. Spending abroad prices AED 6,360 of the total as non-AED and takes each card's foreign transaction fee off the annual result. Two answers price air travel (travel and flights; spending abroad) and count the airport benefits a traveller uses, each at that card's own published allowance. Every other benefit these cards carry is worth nothing to this household and counts as nothing.
Those months run from AED 21,200 to AED 30,200 a month, and every answer states the one it was priced on. They are the same curated spend profiles every comparison page uses, so the household behind an answer here is the household behind it anywhere.
