Yes, American Airlines miles are great. They’re some of the best. And yes, the 50,000 mile offer for the Executive card is worth looking at for some of you. Personally, it would take a ton to get me to pay a $450 annual fee. Lounge access is the main extra benefit and it’s just not that huge of a bonus for me.
Citibank cards can be churned 18 months after applying for the identical card. Between the different personal cards and the business card, I’m doing just fine earning American miles consistently. There’s no need for me to spend $450. (edit: Links to the above offers are posted here often and will come up again in a few days in my monthly Top 25 post).
