This is Citi Prestige done and dusted. I've been a customer since the Citi Select days and been holding on to the card for the Priority Pass benefit as it was the best in the market. Was only paying $350 annual fee as used to have a Citi mortage account. Now the discount will no longer be offered in the next renew in Jul and from Aug only 15 visits per year, who in their right mind would pay $700 for this.

I've got nearly 700k citi points and don't want to transfer to Singapore yet as I've got 500k kf points sitting in there from avoiding the AMEX devaluation in 2023 and off to Europe this year, so might have to stay fir another year. Transferring to velocity will give me less as well.

I got the $350 deal last year so hope again.

I'm facing the same issue. Another option is to transfer to Flybuys and wait for promotion to convert to Velocity. I can't justify paying $700 to hold over for another year when Flybuys can hold the points for free.

You could do well move the points to Velocity as there's a 15% transfer bonus this month. It means that, if you do move the points to KF down the track, the penalty is only about 7% (37K KF miles at 2:1.15 then 1.55:1 vs 40K at 2.5:1 if you're converting direct).

Ouch.

20 visits would be ok. But 15 is puuushing it (and that's not including going lounge crawling if a first lounge is a bit rubbish and there might be a better one).

Between this and the insurance excess going up, it's hard to justify at this price.

Why would 20 be ok?

If it was 20 visits I'd bet you'd be saying 25 visits.

Random numbers meaningless.

You can pay 3-400 hunj for a cc for 2 lounge passes.

Still value with Prestige, just poorer value than current.

I did a back of the envelope calculation that across 3 trips we'd do over the next 12 months we'd do 16 visits to airports that have PP lounges. That's not including any second visits. Eg: 2 weeks ago we went to Doha and visited the Al Maha lounge and the Sleep n' Fly on an 8-hour layover... So we'd be lounge penny pinching compared to now.

At 700,000 citi to velocity with the 15% I'm short around 20k krisflyer miles as opposed to converting straight over. That's about $600 worth of points assuming they don't cut the current earn rate. I'll stick it out for another year I think and use it at aldi and other places where I get .8 kf miles. Also 1.2 kf miles in Europe and NZ in the next year as the points received are a little better or the same as even after allowing for the fx fees.
