I love the pay yourself feature so you can use miles to cover the annual fee. I also have the barclay American Airlines aviator red card and that also has great benefits.
I had the united airlines explorer card but I updated my card to the quest card because I have over 5000.miles on united airlines and I feel that you can get better states on the quest card over the explorer card
About to pick up the Citi AA Platinum. Ima grab it for the slightly elevated SUB and test out in the first year while the AF is waived if I can 1) Fly enough on AA to keep it around and 2) if stacking with the AA dining and AA shipping portal with my normal spend can get me high enough status.
Very informative video. Btw, I read somewhere that you could pay the annual fee using the miles on the card @ 1.5 miles per dollar. Which means the annual fee is about 6,333 points. If you get a SUB of 50K points, that covers nearly 8 years of annual fees - EVEN IF you didn't use the card anytime during all those years.
Get the United Business card and downgrade the Explorer to the Gateway. Same annual fee, same 2 lounge passes, but you get 5,000 bonus miles annually by having the business and a personal card.
I am in the same boat and the no baggage fees - is more then the $95 annual fee.
Facts!
The waived bag fees is worth the AF fee alone and makes this a keeper card IMO. Thanks for the info + video!

I've been looking at that Barclay's card lately.

I like the quest also. I'll definitely be upgrading if I start flying United more often.

Sounds like a good plan. I could use some AA miles right about now.
Damn Chase 5/24
