Yeah, but there's a difference between "no minimum fare" and "no class restrictions".

Here's a T&C from a 2010 version of the cert:
http://www.aa.com/content/images/eSu..._V06_Legal.htm


Travel must be booked in H V M L K or W inventory with a minimum fare of $299 per passenger.
If they've just dropped the fare restriction, you still have cases where, for example, the cheapest fare is an S or Q fare at $198 roundtrip, and the cheapest HVMLKW fare is $459.

I had seen that link as well and it's interesting to note that those terms and conditions were very specific on the eligible fare buckets while this one had no mention of fare buckets. As mentioned, I am skeptical but also optimistic at the lack of mention of fare buckets.

I have opened dialogue with AA on this and will report back when I get more details.

Yes, the links are from the email offer I received. Same thing goes for the links in the 75k thread (though the links there did not come from me), they are links originally targeted through email. This is the reason there is no landing page for these offers as the email serves as the landing page.

Sorry, I misunderstood what you said. I thought you said your links were the same as jcmitchell21's links (as in your links were for the 75,000 points). I see now that you meant I should be able to use your links just like I was able to use jcmitchell21's links.

Another possibility. I received this link via snail mail sometime during the past 3 weeks while I was away. Not sure if it’s targeted.

Citi AA Visa Business 35000/$1000 in 4 months, 10000 more/5000 in 6 months, no fee first year/one $50 credit with AA purchase https://creditcards.citicards.com/us...8CA1A23E097B1D

Well, no further details to report... I basically got the run around with AA and Citi with AA finally telling me that they have no access to the certificates and that I will just have to wait til I get my cert to see the terms. Anyway, just got back from a long trip and was hoping to apply for one of this offer and one of the 75k but I will instead be applying for two of these tomorrow.

Here is a link for 50K miles with $2,500 spend in 4 months for Visa, Amex, Biz. This came from Million Mile Secrets. What a great blog.

I Would like to know if somebody has used the link mentioned in Post #1, (without receiving himself the offer), applied for any of the cards (I am interested in the business card) and received the miles and other benefits. Since the 75,000 miles link is now dead, this is the best offer I've seen. Please let me know if any have success with this link.

These have a couple Admirals club day passes too.

For someone who uses AA miles for domestic coach awards, I'd say this offer looks superior to the 75k offers.


Agreed, unless you were still shooting for million miler status.

So if I already applied for the 75k offer with a Visa, is there any chance of me applying for the American Express offer with this link and getting the bonus 50k?

It depends on when you applied for that Visa. For this offer I would say all general advice in jcmitchell21's famous "Post #2" would apply.

Bummer. Applied back in January. Sound like I'm out of luck?

Well, I just received denials on both apps for this card. It had only been 15 months since my last apps but I was hoping I would be one of the lucky ones to get in earlier than 18 months seeing as I received this offer. Anyway, if anyone else applies for this offer, let us know if there are any terms on the certificate not mentioned in the linked T&C.

Here's one that looks open to everyone:

http://www.aa.com/i18n/AAdvantage/ea...t/citiVisa.jsp

40K points (30K @ $750 spend in 4 months 10K more @ $5K spend in 6 months)
$100 statement credit
2X points earned @ AA

progapanda Oct 14, 2011 4:51 pm

I received (via snail mail) an interesting variation on the offers the others posted earlier:

Citi Gold AAdvantage Visa Signature

1.) 35,000 AAdvantage miles after $1,000 spend in 4 months
2.) 10,000 AAdvantage miles upon renewing card at 1-yr. anniversary
3.) 3x miles on all American Airlines purchases for 12 months
4.) 2 One-Day AC Passes
5.) One-Time $100 statement credit on the first American Airlines purchase
6.) Waived $50 annual fee for first year

Seems targeted, but I'll try to find if this is available online.
