Citi Brings Back 100,000‑Mile Offer on AAdvantage Executive Card

Approval advice emphasizes Citi’s 48‑month bonus rule before applying.

Overview

  • The limited-time welcome bonus offers 100,000 AAdvantage miles after $10,000 in purchases within three months of account opening.
  • The $595 annual-fee card includes a full Admirals Club membership for the primary cardholder, and up to three authorized users can be added for a total of $175 with their own lounge access rules.
  • Ongoing benefits include up to $120 back each year with Avis or Budget, up to $120 in Grubhub credits, up to $120 in Lyft credits, priority airport services, and a 25% inflight food and beverage discount.
  • Citi’s eligibility rules apply, including the 48‑month restriction on earning this card’s bonus (clock starts when prior bonus posts) and approval cadence limits of one new card every eight days and two every 65 days.
  • TPG values AAdvantage miles at 1.55 cents each (placing the 100,000‑mile bonus near $1,550), and recent guidance suggests approval is most likely for credit scores roughly in the 670+ to 700–740+ range.
