Why it earns its spot

  • +Fee waived the first year
  • +Does not count toward Chase 5/24
  • +Companion certificate is reachable for real businesses

Where it costs you

  • Citi business cards require separate AA personal-card spacing rules
  • Thin earning structure outside AA and the 2x utility categories

The Compound Verdict

A clean 65,000-mile bonus with the first-year fee waived is hard to argue with. AA miles still book some of the best partner awards in the game, and the checked bag perk does the rest.
