How long to wait before applying for a second Citicard ?

[cutieduckling]

I applied for a Citi AA card back in Oct 09. Approved after sending them my pay stubs. Card in good standing with no late and always PIF.

 

I have some travelling coming up in Summer. I was thinking to sign up for the Citi Premier pass elite to save more on the flights.

 

Will it be ok to apply for a second card from Citi in March, abt 4 months after the first one ???

 

Any other card with travel rewards as good as Citi Premier Elite which gives points like the following ?

"Your points can add up fast. If you were to buy 2 $350 tickets (one for yourself and one for a friend) on a 6,000 mile round-trip flight, you'd earn 12,700 points.2 Also, you can earn miles in the frequent flyer programs you are enrolled in."

 

Thanks everyone and enjoy the weekend. bye

I applied for Citi AAdvantage MC and Citi AAdvantage AMEX on the same day - and was approved.

 

Low Util and low 700's scores.

Yes HoldenMcGroin, CitiForward is on my list of long term cards. For now I am thinking abt travel so Elite Premier Pass seems like a good one for now.

 

Does anyone know abt a travel card offering rewards like the Citi Elite i.e. 1 point for every mile flown when u purchase tickets using this card ?

 

Thanks.

Think its 6 months before apps, I applied after 4 or 5 months and was denied for recently approved account but was approved on app at 6 months and a week.
