With Citi soon to be the sole issuer of AA cards, and AA points being hard to earn (no transfer partners outside of a terrible 3:1 Marriott conversion), thoughts on getting the Barclays AA card for 70k points? I do not own an AA card but would love to redeem JAL business/first one day. Award availability is another issue, but I'm thinking this card and then eventually the Citi AA card(s) could be worth a 5/24 slot? Currently at 4/24. I'm thinking either AA or more Ink cards next.
