my prestige has an expiration date 2/20 so I'm assuming it'll expire in Feb & I'm wondering If I can use the airline fee credit? Should I buy SW refundable ticket & cancel after few mins?

That's correct.
So I made Etihad award reservation by calling the Australian AA customer service because US call center couldn't see an award availability & paid taxes with Prestige & would like to know if this will be accounted for as an airline fee?

I just called Citi to transfer credit limit from one card to another. They said it can't be done without a hard pull. Any way to have it done without?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Citi doesn't transfer CL; they do a CLD and then a corresponding CLI, which is why they do the hard pull. If you've had a recent hard pull with Citi, you might be able to get them to do it with that pull.

Does the AAdmirals club membership start immediately after being approved or do you need the actual card?

I thought that was only in July, I guess they got rid of it for new cardmembers already now.

4th night free.

They only allow for one room, and I need two.
I am thinking of booking a very expensive room with Citi and then call hotel to change to two cheaper rooms. (That the balance should somehow match what Citi booked me)

Will Citi follow up later with the reservation or will they refund me automatically 4th night of what I booked through them?

Citi Gold clients pay $350... And you have the $250 air travel credit.

Just additional ppd in select categories. Or $200 after $12k spend.
