amex gold rewards
citi aa visa
usair barclays
chase sapphire - keeping
chase united (not explorer, older one)
chase freedom - keeping
both Hawaiian air cards
amex Hilton - got Feb 2012
bofa virgin - got Feb 2012
I think I'm maxed out on chase, but maybe something from citi or another amex?
I have ~80k aa, 170k usair, 60k emirates (need to get rid of), 170k united, 315k Hilton, and 120k ultimate rewards.
wouldn't mind building up more Hilton, but more united would be great. Only travel plans for this year so far are a summer trip to Italy, but haven't worked any details out yet.
You've got only 3 Chase cards, so perhaps you could try for the Chase Ink Bold and offer to give up the United MileagePlus card (if it isn't one of your oldest cards).
That way you could potentially get 50K Ultimate Rewards points via Chase Ink Bold which are transferable to United and also get the United Explorer card.
The Citi Thank You Premier is great for domestic airfare up to $665 with no blackout dates.
