Why not get an AmEx Platinum Card, pay $400 a year for it, get free use of the Admiral's Club when traveling on an AA ticket and rack up AmEx points for every purchase?
The AmEx cards also allows you to use DL, NW and CO clubs when flying on their metal.

AC renewal is cheaper than $400/year, and a *wood AmEx lets you earn 1.25 AA miles per $ for all spending. So you'd spend more be trading AA miles for AmEx points. But you'd gain access to DL, NW, and CO.

That said, there will be a new BA/QF lounge in Terminal 3 for both airlines' flights to Australia (and the Asian connection cities) to which AA elites should have access. Also, of course, there is the Cathay lounge.

I just got an AA CitiBusiness credit card but couldn't find the link you cite on the CitiBusiness webpage or after logging into my account.

I got 100$ discount and signed up 2 people while the Nashville promotion.
250$ each and this year it was worth it ! ^
Usually these discounts show up several times a year in different locations that have had a renovation, new clubs etc.
