Thumbs down airline cards still worth it?

Who knows maybe I just have bad luck with the cards I've chose but airline cards no longer make sense to me. I needed 37,500 just for a domestic ticket and I'm not even talking a nice one but the bargain tickets. That means I would have to spend 40,000 on my card before I even qualify for one stupid ticket. Even if i had a card that only paid 1% cash back that would give me $400 which is enough to buy a ticket on my own. Then if that card was 1% cash back plus 2% or 3% cashback on some categories I would earn that same amount with even less spending. To make it worse most of these airline cards charge annual fees.

I think they're past their time.
