Citi / AAdvantage Globe Mastercard Flights

This credit applies only to inflight purchases on domestic flights that are both marketed and operated by American Airlines or operated as American Eagle by approved regional carriers. Codeshare flights operated by other airlines are excluded even if they carry an American flight number. The credit covers up to $100 per calendar year, is limited by onboard supply, and applies only to charges made during the flight on eligible aircraft.

Pro Tips

1. 1Use the credit for food, drinks, or Wi-Fi on flights marketed or operated by American or American Eagle, since these reliably qualify.
2. 2With few restrictions, you can even use it to buy snacks or drinks for others if you have no personal need.
3. 3Wi-Fi will be less valuable once domestic service becomes free in 2026, but it may still work on international flights, making it a useful fallback if you cannot use the credit otherwise.

This certificate is issued only after your account renews and stays open for one full billing cycle, and you must hold an active AAdvantage account to receive and redeem it. It applies only to select Main Cabin round trip fares within the contiguous U.S. and must be booked through American Airlines Meeting Services. You will pay a $99 fee plus taxes and fees for the Companion Certificate, and both tickets must be flown before the certificate’s expiration. Codeshares and non-eligible fare classes will not qualify.

Pro Tips

1. 1Use the certificate on high fare routes or peak dates to maximize the value of the $99 companion ticket.
2. 2Stay flexible, since off-peak dates and non-holiday periods often have better Main Cabin availability and lower taxes.
3. 3Book early and confirm the fare class, because Basic Economy and codeshare flights are not eligible.
