Why We Like It
The American AAdvantage program is one of the best if you want to book business and first class flights on Oneworld airlines such as Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines, and Qatar Airways.
However, American’s only transfer partners are Bilt Rewards and Marriott Bonvoy so miles can be tough to earn. With the CitiBusiness AAdvantage Platinum Select, you can use your business spend to earn American miles directly.
If you’re a frequent flyer on American, you can also earn Loyalty Points toward status when you spend on the card.
This card will not impact your 5/24 status if you still want to get Chase cards.
