This teaser is all I can get out before I head to the gate for my flight to Shanghai…details to come, I learned a lot in this round.
Yes, I do have affialiate links for a number of these cards, though am not going to stuff them into your eye sockets, you can find them in my Barclays, Chase and Citi pages, with disclosure on whether or not I receive commission for specific cards.



could you post the bonuses and spends on these?
Wow this is all in one round? That is a lot of apps in one go. What is your frequency?
did you apply for two of the same B of A Alaska Airlines Personal credit cards?
@emily – I will do a detailed follow-up post on this, as noted, I fired that off before my flight to China. Barclays in particular is quite interesting!
@traveler – I have never applied for the Alaska personal, I keep hoping the 40k bonus will come back so this time I did the biz, partly because wanted to test getting 2 biz from BOA, never tried any biz cards with them…chalk it up to blog research.
@MilesAbound – yep, all on Monday, I do quarterly but sort of missed the September round, instead I had some August with Hilton Reserve x2 and the SPG 30k biz bonus + Amex Delta Plat bonus.
Amazed by Barclays. They have always been a challenge in my experience. I’m looking forward to more details!
