EDITORS' CHOICE: Best Introductory Offer
The Citi® Platinum Select® / AAdvantage® World MasterCard


The American Airlines Citi® Platinum Select® / AAdvantage® World MasterCard® has a special offer that gives you 25,000 miles when you use the card for $750 in purchases within 4 months. That is enough for a roundtrip ticket in the 48 mainland United States on American Airlines or its partner Alaska Airlines. In addition there is no annual fee the first year. You can apply for the Citi® Platinum Select® / AAdvantage® World MasterCard® using this link.



We have generally found American Airlines miles to be among the easier to redeem for domestic tickets. If you want 2 roundtrip tickets, have your travel companion apply for a card separately. The credit card carries an annual fee, but it is waived for the first year, so you could cancel later if you choose and pay no fee.

How you earn points
In addition to the generous bonus offer, you earn points like most miles credit cards. $1 spent on the card = 1 AAdvantage® mile. These are in addition to the miles you earn if you choose to purchase tickets to fly on American or its 25+ top airline partners.

Miles aren't just for American Airlines 
American Airlines AAdvantage® miles aren't just for use on American Airlines. You can use your miles for flights on over 25 top airlines, including Alaska Airlines, British Airways to Europe, Cathay Pacific to Asia, Hawaiian Airlines, LAN to Latin America, Qantas to Australia, Aer Lingus to Ireland, and more.

Free domestic tickets start at 25,000 miles roundtrip plus taxes. We generally find the best value for points are for first/business class tickets. Upgrades to first class or business class from cheap paid coach tickets are available for 15,000 miles each way for flights in the United States.  Completely free tickets in business class start at 45,000 miles roundtrip in the U.S. and 90,000 miles roundtrip to Europe.
