Ah man. I already have the card. I wonder if this a different version. I guess I'll have to find out. I know that earlier this year they doubled everyone's point balances because they were redoing the the whole rewards program. I ended up with a little over 25K extra points. They essentially made this a card a 2% cash back. It used to be that points were worth about 20% for most things. I remember a couple of year ago I redeem something like 40K points and got a check in the mail for $500.

I joined in '87 while on AD, and over the years I have been able to extend an invitation to join to other family members (i.e parents, wife, sister, brother, cousin). My cousin was part of my household at the time of the invitation. My sister, brother, and parents were not although we do share the same last name. After my cousin got married she had her husband joined as well. One of my buddies extended an invitation to his roommate and that person was approved. I don't know if the rules have changed but it seemed as long as you could proved someone was related to you or lived with you that those people qualified for membership.

Been a NFCU member for years and just saw this offer.
Does anyone have experience on the redemption side? I thought the info and samples for airfare was a little vague. I can't tell if the program is more of a USB Flexperks range deal, or more Barclays/Cap One. I also couldn't tell if it offered partial redemptions (e.g. $400 credit on a $500 ticket) - it does not appear to but wasn't sure.
On membership, give them a call. They want new members and are generally willing to try and find a connection.

Just to make sure, I sent a message through NFCU's website and they replied that yes, you can redeem points for a partial credit, i.e. redeem 60,000 points for $600 credit on a >$600 ticket that you purchased yourself. You do so by sending an online message or by calling in.
"Navy Federal allows Flagship cardholders to process redemptions for previous tickets for up to one year prior."

I see MMS brought up this card today. I joined the Credit Union about a week ago. Got my literature & debit card in the mail in literally 4-5 days. Crazy fast. Will apply for card sometime this week. Have a feeling this thread will get a lot bigger.

I think MMS said everyone in American could join potentially. But I think that's too broad.

Applied for and received this card. Instant Approval. It was my 9th Application since February.
I received my debit card but no access code for online access. I needed to call to setup online access before applying for the card. Quick 2-3 minute process - very easy.

The only reason I haven't applied for this card is because of all that other stuff that comes with the account (another debit card, online products, etc). Is that something to be concerned about? I won't use that stuff anyways, just looking for the $600.
