question

Hello,

Thank you everyone for the wonderful post. I am learning lot of stuff in a very short time.

Question - Amex permier rewards card bump to 75K - How to get 75K by transfering miles to CO? I already have 62K in onpass acount and would love to get another 75K.

Thanks.

two personal Citi AA cards - 75k bonus each
Chase Sapphire - 50K bonus (transfer to Continental)
Amex Premier Gold Rewards (bump to 75k) (transfer to Continental if you can get it before 30 Sep, which is theoretically possible if you have extreme hustle)

If you apply on the same day, none of the requests will see the other requests, so you should be good to go! Always apply for cards in batches every 3-6 months. If you get approved for all of the above (and I think you will), then you would have 150K AA and 125K CO. That's enough for a business class ticket to Europe on Star Alliance (with Continental miles). With AA miles 2.5 trips in domestic First to Cancun or 6 off-peak coach tickets to Cancun or 4+ on-peak coach trips to Cancun.
