Citi 30,000 American Airlines Miles Sign Up Bonus

We haven’t had a Free Money Friday for frequent travelers lately so here’s a great one: Citi and American Airlines are offering a 30,000 AAdvantage mile bonus for new cardmembers which can equal quite a few free flights!

How to Get Your 30,000 Miles

Sign up for the CitiBusiness/AAdvantage Visa card.
Make $750 in purchases in the first 4 months of being a cardmember.
The AAdvantage® miles will appear as a bonus in your AAdvantage® account within 8-10 weeks.

Citi/AAdvantage Terms and Conditions

The $75 Annual Fee is waived for the first year of cardmembership.
This offer is valid only for first-time CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® cardmembers who apply pursuant to this offer for an account.
The maximum number of American Airlines AAdvantage® miles you can earn from purchases using this card is 150,000 AAdvantage® miles per calendar year, although different AAdvantage statuses and bonus miles are excluded from the limit.
Miles don’t expire provided that once every 18 months you (i) redeem American Airlines AAdvantage® miles or (ii) earn them on American Airlines carriers or (iii) earn AAdvantage® miles with an AAdvantage® participant.
American Airlines has no restricted dates for award travel but seats for award travel are limited and may not be available on all flights.

More on AAdvantage

Multiple ways to earn miles. You can earn miles via purchases on the card, flights on American Airlines or their partners, purchases through the AAdvantage shopping mall and bonuses at partner hotels, car rentals, florists, etc.

Individual applicants. Don’t forget, you can use your individual name and select sole proprietorship as the type of business to qualify for a business card.

Redeeming miles. AAdvantage allows you to redeem miles for one-way flights, often for as low as 12,500 miles per leg. That means this bonus could earn you close to 3 one-way flights and save you at least $300!
