Best current Citi AAdvantage Bonus offers?
Just curious what better offers are out there for the Citi AA card with the $95/annual fee (not interested in the WorldElite since I have the Platinum AMEX). The offer I saw was 30K Miles and $100 statement credit....hoping there are targeted offers out there for more miles.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Somewhat OT, but do they allow the FF# to be attached to multiple cards at the same time?

Note: You can churn some of the cards (like Visa 50k at the top of that Wikipost) "quickly" (if you can meet the minimum $3k spend per card quickly), but some of the other offers require waiting 12 to 18 to 26 months before repeating.
All the best Citi AA card offers now require $3k spend within 3 months. If that's an issue for you with "normal" spend, do a Google seardh of "Manufactured Spending" to get a primer on that technique which can help you recycle credit card spend back into credit card bill payments with relatively small costs (though it takes a few steps).

Thanks sdsearch!
I applied for two 50K's, immediately approved for the first and then had to chat with a representative to get approved for the second. Took around 15 minutes total.

For weeks now, Citi has generally been turning down the 2nd app unless you wait at least 8 days between apps. But the information I gave you was just 6 days ago. Furthermore, around Sunday (about 3 days ago) people started getting rejected left and right for their 2nd Visa 50k for sudden enforcement of "new customers only". (So it sounds like maybe got your apps in just in the nick of time!)
