Our Verdict
The reason I’m posting this offer is that it doesn’t contain the restrictive 24 month language (as always check your own offer to make sure it’s absent). Meaning if you’ve opened or closed another Citi American Airlines personal card in the last 24 months you can get the sign up bonus on this card as well. If you haven’t then you might be better off applying for another American Airlines card first (executive is offering 75,000 miles and success getting matched to 75,000 miles on select card). As always make sure you read through these things everybody should know about Citi cards.
