Our Verdict

There has been an 100,000 offer after $10,000 in spend , 75,000 offer after $7,500 in spend & also an in branch offer for 60,000 miles after $15,000 in spend within the first year. Personally I don’t think the annual fee on this card justifies the benefits, especially when you already have lounge access with another card. I think the Citi Prestige provides much better value and also gives you access to Admirals Club.
