Maybe it's just me, but I feel like the cannabalization train has already left the station. The Citi Exec and Prestige cards used to be complimentary, but with the addition of Admirals Club access, increased value for AA/US spend, and the upcoming dropping of some of the Prestige's unique features, it seems like there's little reason to have both.

Supposedly in the Barclays US Air contract, miles for signup bonuses cost even less than normal miles.
