American Raises Citi Executive Card Fee To $695 — New Credits, More Loyalty Points, And Pricier Lounges

American is raising the Citi AAdvantage Executive card’s annual fee to $695 while adding new credits, more Loyalty Points, Omni status, and other benefits. At the same time, standalone Admirals Club membership prices are climbing sharply, making the card a bigger part of American’s strategy to push premium revenue, lounge access, and deeper engagement with AAdvantage.
