Thanks for all the feedback so far. Have tweaked my plans as follows:
CITI- AA Biz 75k and HHonors personal Visa Sig 50k . I'm going to wait till after the weekend to do app-o-rama, just to be on safe side with 60+ day timeline, and the TY Prem expires 6/30 (today) per terms- will reevaluate if offer still live next week
CHASE- No change
AMEX- Hilton HHonors 50k now (holding off for better SPG Amex offer in future as no targeted for 15+15k after $15k so would only get 10+15 if did it now).
BofA/FIA- Will go for both Alaska Air and BofA Hawaiian

TIA!
CITI- previous (and only) apps 60+ days ago for AA Visa and Amex
Go for AA Biz 75k AND either Thank You Premier 50k, fee $125 OR Hilton HHonors Visa Sig 50k, no fee (since HHonors Amex is the better no fee Hilton card, if I apply for that now I'll definitely go with the TY Premier)
CHASE- prev app was 30 days+ for CO MC, prior to that was 30+ days for BA Visa
Sapphire Preferred 50k
AMEX- prev app 60+ days ago Prem Rew Gold (also have Biz Plat)
leaning to Hilton HHonors 50k (20k plus 30k $500 spend) no fee OVER the SPG 15k (plus 15k at $15k spend) as think can get a better SPG Amex offer by waiting.
BofA/FIA- Prev apps- none
Alaska Air 40k exp 7/30/11 plus $99 comp tix Eco or FC , fee $75:
AND Given can do 2 in one day (with CRA combining the 2 pulls from FIA into 1) is it worth trying for the BofA Hawaiian 35k, $79 fee as well.
