8x AA lounge pass? u mean double dip 2 x 4 passes (calendar yr) after 1st yr AF before cancel?
$400 BB GC? u mean double dip 2 x $200 (calendar yr) after 1st yr AF before cancel? cuz then u would have to apply in DEC. which means 100k SUB is TBD.
$400 hotel credit? huh? u mean double dip 2 x $300 (calendar yr) = $600?
You're right the hotel credit is $300, not $200.

The credits and passes are all calendar year. So if you apply now you get 2025 credits and 2025 AA passes and then new ones in January 2026. If you wait until December you could potentially triple dip, but there might not be a 100k offer in December. We don't know how long credits will take to post so triple dip may not be possible and I'm not interested in pursuing the triple dip when there is 100k available now.
