美国航空正在上调其两张奖励信用卡的年费，这是自2018年以来的首次涨价，并新增了TSA PreCheck预检费用抵扣和酒店消费积分等福利。
American Airlines is raising the annual fee for two of its rewards credit cards for the first time since 2018 and adding new benefits like a TSA PreCheck credit and points from spending on hotels.
一位发言人表示，花旗AAdvantage白金精选世界精英万事达卡的年费将从99美元上涨至每年150美元。这是自2018年将年费从95美元提高到99美元以来的首次上调。
The fee on the Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select World Elite Mastercard will go up to $150 a year from $99. That is the first increase since 2018, when it raised the fee from $95 to $99, a spokeswoman said.
花旗AAdvantage商务万事达卡也将涨价，年费现为每年150美元。航空公司及其银行合作伙伴一直在稳步提高奖励信用卡的年费。
The Citi AAdvantage Business Mastercard will also have a fee increase and will now cost $150 a year. Airlines and their bank partners have been steadily raising fees on rewards credit cards.
这些信用卡每年为航空公司带来数十亿美元收入，航空公司通过向银行出售里程获利，银行再将里程发放给客户。美国航空周二宣布的这一举措，紧随联合航空等竞争对手的类似涨价之后。
Those cards generate billions of dollars a year for airlines, which make money when miles are sold to banks, which then give them to customers. American's move, announced Tuesday, follows similar increases by rivals such as United Airlines.
与此同时，美国运通去年将其广受欢迎的白金卡年费从695美元提高至895美元，该卡附带机场贵宾厅使用权。摩根大通将其竞品卡——蓝宝石储备卡的年费从550美元上调至795美元。
Meanwhile, American Express last year raised the fee on its popular Platinum card, which comes with airport lounge access, to $895 a year from $695. JPMorgan Chase increased the annual fee on its competing card, the Sapphire Reserve, to $795 from $550.
美国航空信用卡的新福利包括：通过美国航空门户预订酒店可获得3倍AAdvantage里程；每四年最多120美元的全球入境计划或TSA PreCheck预检费用抵扣；以及每年100美元的机上消费（如餐食）账单抵扣。新年费将于1月24日生效。
The new perks for the American card include 3X AAdvantage miles earnings on hotels booked through American's portal, a credit of up to $120 every four years for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck, and a $100 annual statement credit on in-flight purchases like food. The new fees take effect Jan. 24.
