15% off any airfare purchase is nice as well.

If you earn flight points and TY points, it's true you're essentially stuck at 2 points per $1. But, if you redeem your TY points for flights, you get 1.33cpp and, therefore, 2.66% per $1 (if you've earned flight points).

I'm not sure why the premier card does not get more love.
Like the above post I've saved over $350 on my companion ticket. Plus Citi has other cards to combine with the Premier card. Both my wife and I have made over 110,000 TYP's by doing this.
