People looking for more from a credit card than just the ease of buying now and paying later should consider the American Express Platinum. Cardholder benefits tip the scales, with the American Express Platinum card offering more benefits and special services to it's cardholders than almost any other card on the market. For individuals with excellent credit, the American Express Platinum credit card is a superior option to many cards with benefits that just can't compare.
Many of the benefits offered to American Express Platinum cardholders are designed for travelers, including the Domestic Companion Airfare Program. When you purchase a coach-class ticket on one of six airlines you can receive a complimentary ticket for a travel companion up to four times each year. The annual fee for American Express Platinum will more than pay for itself in the companion airfare program, alone. In addition, the card offers complimentary airport club access at participating locations worldwide, platinum travel
services to assist you with planning your travel, special amentities and upgrades at more than 600 hotels worldwide, cruise priviledges like a $300 shipboard credit or room upgrades, and platinum destination vacations.
The travel benefits are quite extraordinary, but American Express Platinum doesn't stop with just travel. The card does not have a pre-set spending limit, offers personal concierge services and reservation assistance, roadside assistance, car-rental loss or damage coverage, travel accident insurance and purchase protection.
The benefits offered with the American Express Platinum really go above and beyond your average credit card benefits - and on top of that, they offer a rewards program through their Membership Rewards First program, with exclusive merchandise and a variety of redemption options that let's you choose the rewards that work for you.
You can manage your American Express Platinum account online, make payments online or off or through an automatic payment plan you set up, and decide whether or not to pay your American Express Platinum balance all at once or over time. At the end of the year, American Express Platinum cardholders receive a year-end account statement, which makes
tax time a breeze. Review Date: 8/3/2008
