AA has one credit card (Citi Executive / AAdvantage World Elite MasterCard) that earns 10k EQM after $40k in purchases. The annual fee is $450 but that includes lounge access.

There are a few discontinued cards from United and USAirways that some people still have that offer some EQM bonuses. Don't think any of them are available for new cardholders now though.

EDIT: Although, the United Club Card - the one with the $395 annual fee - gives you most of the benefits of elite status anyway. It goes back to exactly which benefits you actually want - might just be able to buy them with an annual fee.
