Current Cards (store cards not included):

• J.P. Morgan Palladium ($250k unreported CL - 4/2012)
• Chase Freedom MC ($25k CL - 4/2012 - PCed from CSP Visa)
• Chase Freedom Visa ($25k CL - 5/2012)
• Chase Sapphire Preferred Visa ($25k CL - 6/2013 - PCed to CSP MC for EMV)
• Chase Ink Bold (11/2012)
• Chase Ink Plus ($25k CL - 7/2013)
• Chase MPE ($25k CL - 2/2013)
• AmEx Blue Sky ($25k CL – 7/2012)
• AmEx SPG Personal ($25k CL - 8/2013)
• AmEx SPG Business ($25k CL - 8/2013)
• Citi Dividend MC ($50k CL - 1/2005)

FICO should be right around 780. No late payments or derogs. Hard Inquiries (trailing 12 months): EX: 5, EQ: 4, TU: 2. Last inquiry was from 8/23/2013 from AmEx for the 30k SPG offers.

Tentative Plan (in order):

1. BofA : Alaska Airlines 50k (EX)
2. Barclays: US Airways Premier World 35k (TU)
3. Citi: AA Plat Personal 50k or Business 50k (EX)

Annual income is ~$500k. Any feedback on the order of applications? Or any other cards that I should consider, particularly from lenders that might only pull EQ or TU? My business is a sole proprietorship (consulting side-business with little documentation behind it). If I apply for the Citi AA Business card will they seek verification of the business or give me a hard time?

I am pretty OCD (as you can probably tell from my fairly uniform credit limits) and am only interested in sign-up bonuses that yield >$500 in value. Not looking to clutter things up just for a $100 bonus from Discover or anything like that.

Thanks for any feedback!
