Consumers who are big spenders may want to opt for the AAdvantage Executive World Elite MasterCard as members will earn 50,000 bonus points BUT the card does not come with foreign transaction fees making it ideal for someone who travels overseas on a regular basis. Other benefits of the AAdvantage Executive World Elite MasterCard include 2 AAdvantage miles per $1 spent on eligible American Airlines purchases, 1 AAdvantage miles earned on all other purchases, and Elite Qualifying Miles (EQMs) after spending $40,000 in purchases within the year. The Citi Travel card offer (Citi / AAdvantage Platinum Select World Elite MasterCard) comes with an annual fee of $95 but the fee will be waived for the first 12 months. The Citi travel card offer also promotes two other type of credit cards with travel rewards:
- Citi / AAdvantage Executive World Elite MasterCard (this sucker comes with a pricey $450 Annual Fee)
- CitiBusiness / AAdvantage Platinum Select World MasterCard (this card comes with a much more reasonable Annual Fee of $95… fee waived for the first 12 months)
