If you fly American more, then the Prestige is probably your best bet, since it accrues Thank You Points that are worth 1.6 cents each when redeeming points for AA tickets. The Prestige also grants free access to AA's Admirals Clubs when flying AA...
At this stage it doesn't matter anymore. The benefits of the card will be nerfed next month. Might as well not even bring up Admiral's access and 1.6 cpp as a reasons to apply for the card.

Unless you're staying a hotels a few times a year, the CS Reserve is a better option now. You get a non-flimsy card, 24/7 direct, higher quality customer service, a better web interface to deal with, a better sign up bonus, primary rental car insurance, Chase Ultimate Rewards, and triple points on dining.

Thread closed because both American Express and Citi have announced substantial since this thread was active.
