Citi AAdvantage Executive fees

Annual Fee

The Citi AAdvantage Executive Card has a $595 annual fee.

Paying out of pocket for an individual Admirals Club membership will cost you anywhere from $700 to $850 per year. This makes picking up this card the best option because you'll not only save up to a few hundreds of dollars, but you'll also receive all the benefits this card offers.

Authorized User Fee

The Citi AAdvantage Executive Card has an authorized user fee of $175 for up to 3 authorized users and $175 for each authorized user thereafter.

Authorized users who are 18 years of age or older will receive access privileges to American Airlines Admirals Club lounge — not full Admirals Club membership privileges which grants access to other airline lounges and clubs with which American Airlines may have reciprocal lounge or club access privileges.

So if you have family or friends that would frequently visit AA's own Admirals Club lounges, adding them would save money.

Foreign Transaction Fee

The Citi AAdvantage Executive Card has a 0% foreign transaction fee. This makes it an excellent option for earning AAdvantage miles on purchases made worldwide.
