But that premium experience comes at a premium cost annually: $450.

--Earn 50,000 American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles after spending $5,000 in purchases within the first 3 months of account opening*.
--Earn 2 miles for every $1 spent on American Airlines purchases and 1 mile per $1 on everything else.
--First checked bag free on domestic American Airlines itineraries for you and up to eight companions traveling with you on the same reservation.
--No foreign transaction fees.
If American isn’t your go-to airline and you rarely use airport lounges, a different card might suit you better. But if you’re a regular occupant of Admirals Clubs, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better deal than the Citi® / AAdvantage® Executive World Elite™ Mastercard®.
