Yes, that's correct, but there are now all sorts of disincentives for choosing segments or distance hidden in the T&Cs. For example, you no longer get minimum miles or class of service bonuses if choosing distance.

My guess is it is deliberate rather than a clumsy implementation/system issue. They have decided they only want to give award space to their own members (elites/credit card holders). Indeed, it might be a negotiating tactic to get partners to pay more for United seats — a lot of that has been...

What has so far gone under the radar is that they've largely moved to a revenue-based program. You still have the option to earn by distance/segments, but they're going to appeal to fewer people from next year due to the earn rate. Just like many other programs, they primarily want you earning...

United recently started offering IN (ie expanded saver-level award inventory) to credit card holders as well as elites. Pure speculation on my part, but I wouldn't be surprised if they have restricted regular award inventory (ie the type VA can book) to see how this new expanded access goes for...

Buy a $20 Target e-gift card and sell somewhere like Aligned Incentives.

NAB hasn't announced what they'll do with existing card holders once the Citi brand comes to an end. When NAB transitioned Citi banking customers across to their platform, they said they would honour a number of features of the Citi accounts and varied a number of others. Edit: I will add that...

So quick to accuse people of spreading fake news, yet no time to read what people are actually saying.

Where did I say it was going to be pulled from sale?

It is fairly reasonable to assume that something significant is going to happen at the end of September. We do not precisely know what, of course. What we do know is: 1. Citi has announced the cessation of a range of promotions next month, including the end of cash back offers as well as the...

Given that it looks like offers are ending on every single Citi card at the same time, I'd say it is a bigger change.

Sounds like something bigger is happening than that: 'Offer ends 14 September 2025. Credit card applications must be submitted on or before this date and approved by 30 September 2025.'

Interesting. Wonder if the end is nigh for the Citi brand? Or is this simply a pause to merge the processing of applications onto the NAB platform?

Helps explain why the recent batch of award seats included flights to CDG.

I'm not sure if it was route or load dependent, but I have had occasions in the past where I was limited to the last few rows, changed my FF number from QF to AA (where I'm EXP), and all the rows opened up.

Similarly, when I go to AA.com, I'm now able to select all seats in First Class on a domestic flight. Previously, I was limited to the last row (or couple of rows) with my QFF number attached.

You can have more than one so you can apply for another at any time. Probably best to wait a few days for system to recognise closure of previous card if you think that is the reason for the previous denial.

Can always product change to a free Ink (CIU or CIC) if you want. I product change all of them to CICs for 5x office supplies. But best to close if you want to apply for more Inks. Chase has a soft limit of only approving new Inks if you have less than 2-4 open at a time.

How many people do you personally know that fall into the category I mentioned above?

Definitely! I more meant for CityRail (or anyone else) not wanting to maintain *G through HSBC in later years, but instead to get it through AC.
