Episode Description
On this
episode of MTM Travel we discuss Citi quite a bit including their
curious new $350 annual fee AA Globe card. Does this mid-tier card
bring anything new to the market and is it worth pursuing? We also
discuss: learning more culture, Citi's generous offer to Strata
Elite members affected by a glitch, how they are shutting down some
cardmembers, a new portal that has transfer partners & big portal
payouts + what 24 hour spas are like in China.
