I can also confirm Prestige and Premier. One card I've heard nothing about is the Citi Dividend, so it's possible no-fee cards are being left out. In any case, I hope this is something that the other banks emulate.

Looks like all the benefits now have this advantage that if you only pay part with your citi card you at least have coverage for that amount.

Thread discussing the May 2016 changes has been merged into the thread discussing the November 2014 changes because the Wikipost has already been updated with links to PDF files for specific cards.
I believe this change was accomplished by changing the insurance company, which means the claims processing may be different.

The one that got me really excited was the Trip Delay / Bag Delay / Bag Damage (but not Trip Cancellation) improvement - it now works on award tickets just like CSP. And even better, trip delay even covers stolen passport/money, which CSP does not (speaking from recent experience).
This was for TY Premier. Haven't checked other cards.
Great to hear about Extended Warranty. I have been using the no-fee Amex HH card since it's universally acknowledged that Amex's claim approval process is better than Visa/MC, but 2x the coverage duration is worth reconsidering.

Improvement to HH (no fee) CDW- it's still secondary, but now explicitly allows discount codes - "If a rental car company promotion/discount of any kind is initially applied toward payment of the rental, any remaining portion of the rental must be paid for with your Citi card."
If Prestige (or another card) has that plus Primary coverage, I'm using it over CSP.

Granted they removed the award miles language from the "not covered" section so perhaps... Guess someone will have to be a guinny pig and report back to us!
