A FEW MORE THINGS THAT ARE GOOD TO KNOW…

1. I first got this American Airlines credit card in Aug. 2018. Closed it in Sep. 2019. Time since closure = 33 months (2 years 9 months).

2. My last Barclays card was the Wyndham Rewards Earner Business, which was opened in Oct. 2021. Time since opening = 8 months. Recommended to have 6+ months between Barclays applications.

3. I made sure to use my 2 existing Barclays credit cards for a variety of transactions in the month prior to applying for this new American Airlines credit card.

4. At first, I had a moderately high utilization on my credit report (~42%) from my Chase Sapphire Preferred card. So, I paid off that statement balance & let my new utilization get reported (~2%) before applying for this new American Airlines credit card. A big factor in credit card approvals is how much you make compared to how much you owe (i.e. your debt levels, which may include debts from other credit cards, mortgage, student loans, auto loans, etc.)
