In recognition of American Airlines’ 30th anniversary Citi has a pretty great credit card bonus running right now. You can earn up to 60,000 American Airlines Advantage miles when you apply for one of the Citibank AAdvantage cards. There have not been many great AAdvantage promotions lately, this is by far the best.

Citi will give you 30,000 bonus miles when you spend $1,000 in purchases on your new card within the first four months. You will also earn an additional 30,000 AAdvantage miles after you spend 10,000 in purchases within the first year of card membership. Thank that’s a lot? Check out our article on buying coins at face value from the U.S Mint or using Amazon payments to rack up those points to meet the spending requirements.

You can apply for the Citi Visa Signature card, Citi American Express card, or the Citi Business card to receive the bonus miles. The Visa Signature card and American Express cards have NO ANNUAL FEE for the first year and $85 a year thereafter. The Citi Business card has NO ANNUAL FEE for the first year and $75 thereafter.

A few more benefits of the Citi AAdvantage cards:

  • Earn 1 American Airlines mile for every $1 spent on purchases.
  • No blackout dates on award travel.
  • Redeem miles on American Airlines as well as many other airlines.
  • Reduced Mileage Award programs allows you to spend less miles for award trips just for having the AAdvantage credit card.

American Airlines AAdvantage miles will post as a bonus in your AAdvantage® account 8–10 weeks after you have met the purchase requirements. Citi usually posts the miles on the following statement (after you have met the spending requirements).

It appears this promotion is no longer available.

I just applyed for this and was approved. Is this all ligit? I called the number on the bottom of the apply page and it said that this deal was not avaliable yet, so now i am worried that i signed up for nothing.

If you applied using the link we have in the article, then you should have the promotion on your account.

Call Citi and see if you are included in the promotion. Since the page still works and doesn't say anything about the promotion being invalid I can only assume the deal is still active. If they do not include you in the promotion you would have a case for bait & switch.

Great promotion from Citibank - fortunately I got in on the 100k mile bonus you posted awhile back. Unfortunately, I was not approved for this one :(

Hi, thanks for posting the offer. Do you know whether you can get double the miles if you apply for two accounts simultaneously (e.g. Amex and Visa)?

Ron- If you fly under Citi's radar I am sure you could open two different accounts as long as you it within an hour or two of each other. The best thing to do would be to apply for the personal accounts and also the business card as they are two different "divisions" of the bank and their systems do not necessarily "talk" to each other.
