American Airlines, Citi and Mastercard have unveiled the Citi/AAdvantage Globe Mastercard – a new entry in the travel credit card market designed to reimagine what mid-tier means with access to premium benefits. Designed to maximise the travel journey, the Citi/AAdvantage Globe Mastercard offers four Admirals Club Globe passes, each valid for 24 hours; more opportunities to earn AAdvantage miles and Loyalty Points toward status, including a first-of-its-kind Flight Streak bonus; and over $750 in valuable travel and lifestyle benefits – all for an annual fee of $350.
“The Citi/AAdvantage Globe Mastercard truly stands out by offering premium value,” said Scott Long, Senior Vice President of AAdvantage, American Airlines. “It’s built for the travellers who want more from every mile – with elevated benefits, faster path to status and powerful earning potential. This card reflects our commitment to making travel smarter, more flexible and more rewarding at every step of the journey. We’ve listened closely to our customers and designed this card to bridge a gap in our portfolio, delivering the benefits they’ve asked for in a way that fits their lifestyle and travel goals.”
The Citi/AAdvantage Globe Mastercard provides cardmembers with an enhanced travel experience. It’s the first mid-tier credit card to include four Admirals Club Globe passes, each valid for 24 hours, along with a suite of benefits that help cardmembers and their companions navigate travel with ease.
“The launch of the Citi/AAdvantage Globe Mastercard is our first new co-branded credit card following the expansion of our partnership, marking a new chapter of innovation in our 38-year legacy,” said Pam Habner, Citi’s Head of U.S. Branded Cards and Lending. “This is a clear example of how our strategic relationship allows us to bring products to market that tap into the emerging needs and desires of today’s travellers. With our new category-defining card, we’re putting premium travel within reach and rounding out the Citi/AAdvantage portfolio to deliver enhanced value to even more cardmembers.”
John Levitsky, Mastercard’s U.S. Co-President, commented: “We’re proud to renew our partnership with American Airlines and introduce cardmembers to The Mastercard Collection through our new World Legend card tier. We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response to the World Legend card introduction. With American and Citi, we’re helping travellers access globally connected benefits in categories they appreciate most: dining, entertainment and of course, travel.”
