Over the years of writing this blog I’ve spent a lot of time writing about ways to enhance the entire travel experience. Mostly, I’ve written about airline elite status or credit card benefits that help make travel more enjoyable. I’ve also covered a ton of amazing airline products and lounges that make traveling downright…
Earlier this month I wrote about why I’ve finally applied again for the Citi Prestige card. In that post I explained a few of the reasons why I ultimately decided to apply for the card. Thankfully, when I applied for the card I was approved immediately online. Then, just about two weeks later my new…
Five years ago if you were to ask me for a credit card recommendation the answer would have been simple. Back then I would have quickly told you that the Citi Prestige card is best for most people. The reason I say this is because back then, the card’s benefits were far better than any other premium…
As professional sports team managers famously say to the press, this past year was a bit of a rebuilding year. What I mean by that is that this past year I focused on maximizing the credit cards I already carried vs. opening new ones and changing strategies. In doing this I was able to easily…
Several weeks ago I received an email from Citi informing me that I’d be receiving a new contactless credit card.

Especially when two of those cards come from the same issuer and offer, what appear to be, similar benefits. However, by pairing certain credit cards you can actually…
That’s the subject line of the email I received from Citi just over a week ago. As you can guess, I was pretty excited when I read that subject line and immediately clicked into the email. I’ve had the Citi ThankYou Premier card for about 2 years now. I got the card when I downgraded…
I just can’t stop thinking about the Citi Prestige card. Sure the constant feed of articles hitting my google feed about the card has something to do with it, but bottom line, I think it’s a great all-around card. I just can’t help but think I’m making a mistake by not carrying it. For that…
Ah, I love when a post basically writes itself. I say that because this post simply fell into my lap today as I was checking my inbox. As I went through several unread emails from American Airlines I noticed on that caught my eye. The subject line of the email, although familiar, captivated me. When…
