Bottom line
Ordinarily, AAdvantage cardholders earn 1 Loyalty Point per dollar spent; however, this offer doubles Loyalty Point accruals for November. That's particularly advantageous as AAdvantage elite members are beginning to enter their final sprint to earn elite status before Loyalty Point balances reset on March 1, 2024.
Regarding award miles, an additional AAdvantage mile from this offer means you'll earn an extra 1.5% from your cobranded American Airlines credit card. This is based on TPG's valuation of AAdvantage miles at 1.5 cents each.
As a reminder, some of our favorite AAdvantage cobranded credit cards include:
- Citi® / AAdvantage® Executive World Elite Mastercard® (see rates and fees)
- Citi® / AAdvantage® Platinum Select® World Elite Mastercard®
- Citi® / AAdvantage Business™ World Elite Mastercard® (see rates and fees)
- Barclay AAdvantage® Aviator™ Red World Elite Mastercard®
The information for the Citi / AAdvantage Platinum Select World Elite Mastercard and Barclay AAdvantage Aviator Red World Elite Mastercard has been collected independently by The Points Guy. The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.
