Currently there is a limited time increased bonus offer for the Citi Executive AAdvantage Card. The usual bonus is earning 50,000 American AAdvantage Miles after spending $5,000 in purchases, but for a limited time, you can earn 80,000 bonus American AAdvantage Miles if you spend $5,500 in purchases within 3 months of account opening.
In addition, right now, you can earn 4 miles for every $1 spent on American Airlines purchases through December 31, 2022.
The card carries a hefty $450 annual fee. You earn 2x miles on all American Airlines purchases and 1X miles on all other purchases. You also earn 1x Loyalty Point per $1 on all spending. You get your first bag checked free on eligible bags for you and up to 8 companions. The best one is that you get Admirals Club membership with the card and you and your immediate family (or up to two traveling guests that accompany you) have access to Admirals Club worldwide locations. (If you purchase membership, this runs about an average of $650 per year for an individual–$450 fee is worth it in this case)
You pay no foreign transaction fees on purchases with the card. You receive a statement credit, up to $100 every 5 years, as reimbursement for your application fee for Global Entry or TSA Pre√. Lastly, you and up to 8 traveling companions get Priority Check-in and priority boarding privileges.
