MasterCard Question

My Citi AAdvantage MasterCard was changed from World to World Elite? In a nutshell, is there any real difference?


In my wallet: Cap1 Venture ($58k), Amex PRG (NPSL), Amex HH ($4K), Barclays Ring MC ($10K), Chase Sapphire Preferred ($22K), Chase SWA Visa Preferred ($7.5K), Chase United Mileage Explorer VS ($20k), Chase Marriott Rewards VS ($12K), BOA BBR MC ($41K), BOA Visa Sig Cash Rewards ($30K), Chase Ritz VS (9K), NFCU Flagship Visa ($55K), Discover It ($6K), Citi AA ($20K). Everything else in SD.

FICO goal: 800+ (as of 3-6-15: EQ FICO 774,,TU FICO 808, EX FICO 775)

You now get a silver MC logo on your card instead of the yello/orange combo Smiley Wink

 

If you don't use the WMC card benefits...there will be no difference to you. But WEMC just have better card travel benefits that the MC and WMC cards don't have.

Losing the clown logo is easily the best benefit. Smiley Indifferent

Re: MasterCard Question

I'm still wondering what buying first class airline tickets with cash has to do with anything...

I think he meant "cash" as opposed to points, not actual physical cash. From the linked article: "these benefits upgrade travelers to business class when they purchase a full fare economy ticket, or offer discounts of 20% – 30% off of the purchase of business or economy class tickets."
