Citi AAdvantage new card design
http://www.aa.com/i18n/AAdvantage/ea...URL&title=citi
Citi redesigned their Aadvantage cards but makes no mention if they are World/World Elite Cards. Does anyone know if they are or standard mastercards?

Does anybody have a newly designed one yet? I'd be interested to see where the number is on the card and if it is still raised like the old ones. Also, the MasterCard logo would probably be where the citi logo is...

Personally, I'm indifferent (mostly) to the card design. This won't have any effect on whether or not I apply for an AA card. What would make me more likely to apply for a card would be if they reduced the minimum spend on the Executive card. I'd otherwise be interested in it, but $5K in 3 months is way above my budget (I don't do MS).

Citi Aadvantage new card design
Called in a couple of days age for a replacement card. received the new one today and looks pretty sleek(numbers aren't raised btw),only weird things is that the card doesn't say Admirals Club in the back any more so my wife's card(as an additional user) looks exactly the same.i'll on me the old card on my trip next week just in case

Yes same here, I like the design as well, but still I can't help but wish for a card that felt a little bit better in hand. What started with the "double cash" card seems to be spreading to all citi cards. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but when I first held the card it really felt like the no fee "Chase Sapphire" with it's hard plastic. But, now that I think about it, the "double cash" didn't feel much different
I don't how I feel $450 and this.. disappointing (from a build quality standpoint, I mean, for a free card, I can sort of understand, but $450, no excuse. design A build quality F Am I weird to feel this way?

Looks and feels very similar to the CSP no fee version
And the citi double cash card.
Standard credit card info and logos with the addition of the AA number as well as "World Elite" above the signature black and while MasterCard logo

My Citi AAdvantage American Express has the hologram mag stripe, and the face of the card is the same old style it's always had.
