Hi Guys,

Wondering if anyone has signed up for the Citi AA Executive MasterCard and tried to use the benefits, particularly the priority check in/ security line and priority boarding the very next day. I know on the AA and Citi website, it states that these benefits kick in 7 days after you sign up, but wonder if anyone has tried to use these benefits before the 7 days? I just signed up for the Executive card today and was approved today (Tuesday) and I'm flying to Portland, OR from LAX this thursday. The card has my AAdvantage number info on it already so I can use the Admiral lounge right away, but I want to see if I can go in the priority check in and through the priority security as well as get priority boarding on my ticket. In theory, since I'm already a member of the card I should be able to use the benefits. If anyone has any experience with using their card benefit basically right after they were approved please share, as I'd like to find out and not have to be turned away from the priority check in if they won't accept this.
