- Airlines
- Hotels
- Rental Cars
The Fine Print
- Valid from May 15th until August 15th
Our Verdict
These points are worth up to 1.3¢ each. Not the most exciting categories if I’m honest, but still should be useful to some people. I imagine this is only valid for the people who received the mail out.

That’s 5.2% back on travel. I’m not aware of many/any better returns. Especially since you can combine with the $100 companion air discount.
The companion air discount flight purchases doesn’t always code up as Travel. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t.
Citi Prestige earns 5x TYP for airfare. I have both cards but plan to take advantage of this 4x CNB offer since I have a negative balance on the CNB card that I need to work off anyway.
I believe the companion air discount coding depends on the airline. IME, AA codes correctly, but AS does not.
I got the offer through snail mail.
I assume it’s an extra 1x, as the card already earns 3x in these categories?
I guess so
