A message from AOPA President Mark Baker

I have a simple request for all AOPA members, please check your wallet.

Does the card inside support your flying, support our shared freedom to fly, and save you money at the same time?

If the answer is no, then you are missing out on the best credit card for pilots, the all new AOPA World Mastercard.

Here is why you as a pilot need it:

About a year ago, AOPA made the hard, but necessary decision to build a true aviation credit card and end our relationship with Bank of America. We needed a better card, one that truly works for pilots and one built from the ground up by pilots. Over the course of its development, we took great care to ensure that every benefit would provide maximum savings on all thing’s aviation and much more beyond that.

This impressive new program replaces our previous one with Bank of America, who no longer carries the pilot’s credit card. (If you had the old Bank of America credit card, it’s time to switch.)

There is now ONLY ONE credit card that bears the name AOPA and represents the best credit card for pilots. There is ONLY ONE card that gives pilots unique benefits to save money, keep flying, support aviation and supports AOPA.

That card is the new AOPA World Mastercard® issued by Commerce Bank and is available in your choice of the two unique aviation designs.

Mark Baker

Now that you have some background on this important AOPA program, I hope that you will take the next step and apply.  If you do, please make sure that if you see me at an aviation event or one our fly-ins, to stop over and share the great news.

Make sure you become one of the thousands of pilots already putting money back in their pockets with the new AOPA World Mastercard.

Blue Skies,

Mark Baker
