    Here’s good news for folks who fly American Airlines, and qualify for a small business credit card.

    Via Miles to Memories, the Barclaycard AAdvantage® Aviator® Business Mastercard comes with a 40,000 American Airlines mile bonus after making your first purchase within 90 days of account opening.

    There’s Now Another Way to Earn American Airlines Miles With the New Barclaycard AAdvantage Aviator Business Card

    Let’s take a look at what you’ll earn with this new small business credit card.

    40,000 American Airlines Miles With New Barclaycard Aviator Business Card

    Link:   The Barclaycard AAdvantage Aviator Business Mastercard

    With the Barclaycard AAdvantage Aviator Business card you’ll earn 40,000 American Airlines miles after making your first purchase within 90 days of account opening.  That’s about as easy a minimum spending requirement as you can get!

    With this card you’ll also get:

    Is This a Good Deal?

    Whether or not this is a good deal for you depends on your travel goals.  And I don’t recommend this card if you’re new to miles and points, because there are far more valuable cards to start with.

    If you’re looking apply for any Chase cards in the future, consider that some folks have reported Barclaycard small business cards will count towards the Chase “5/24” limit.  And lots of folks are finding that American Airlines low-level award seats are harder to come by.  🙁

    But if you qualify for small business credit cards, and you’ve got a use for the American Airlines miles, then it’s a great deal to get 40,000 American Airlines miles after only making a single purchase.

    And the other perks like free checked bags and 25% off in-flight food & beverage purchases can easily make up for the $95 annual fee.

    Bottom Line

    The new Barclaycard AAdvantage Aviator Business Mastercard comes with a 40,000 American Airlines mile bonus after making your first purchase within the first 90 days of account opening.

    This could be a great deal for folks who fly with American Airlines.  And qualify for a small business credit card.

    But small business credit cards from Barclaycard may count towards your “5/24” status with Chase.  And American Airlines miles are becoming increasingly harder to use.
