When does the Citi AAdvantage 10% back post?

I need to book 3 tickets at 60K point each for next spring, so 180K total. I only have 170K points.

I was hoping to book 2 tickets for a total of 120K points leaving a balance of 50K points, then get 10% back (Only 10K points because of the 10K annual cap) because I have the Citi AAdvantage card, bringing my balance back to 60K points so I can book the third ticket.

When does the 10% points back usually post?

More or less immediately after the miles are withdrawn for the awards.

When I did this in January of this year it was in my account 1 or 2 days after the date of redemption - faster than I expected. If you have it on a 5 day hold you should be fine.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm correct about the 10K cap, right?
