Citi American Airlines Credit Cards provide 10% Discount on Award Redemptions

I've long been a loyal United and Star Alliance flier but over the past year or so, I've started to diversify my mileage balances to provide more flexibility and enable us to experience new carriers and places.  One of the great perks of the American Airlines credit cards issued by Citi is the ability to receive 10% off an award booking.

I recently picked up the American Airlines Citi AAdvantage Executive Card which is one of the cards offering the 10% discount.  One other (which I also have) is the Citi Platinum AA World MasterCard.  I booked an award over the weekend (total price was 45,000 miles) and the credit posted automatically after the award ticketed.

You can earn the credit up to 10,000 miles per year.  I value AA miles at 2 cents each so if you take full advantage of this each year, it's like a $200 bonus!  Yet another great way to stretch your miles even further.
