Citi is refreshing multiple American Airlines co-branded credit cards, adding or expanding benefits while increasing annual fees. Several outlets report that Citi and American Airlines adjust the annual fee to $150 for both the primary consumer AAdvantage Platinum Select card and the Citi/American business version, with changes taking effect January 24, 2027.
The new or expanded benefits highlighted across sources include an annual $100 inflight credit and improved travel-related protections, alongside upgraded mileage-earning categories. One business-card update is also described as enabling elite-status credit for two people from shared spending, a feature some coverage frames as a targeted enhancement.
In addition, Citi adds dining credits to its premium American Airlines Executive card. Coverage agrees that the card will include up to $200 in annual inKind dining credits, structured as $100 available now and another $100 later in each calendar year, with participating restaurants specified in some reporting. Overall, the outlets align closely on the core fee increases and the $100 inflight credit, while differing mainly in whether they emphasize consumer versus business cards or the dining-credit rollout timing.
