Does Priority Pass come with Amex Platinum.
« on: July 18, 2010, 12:41:19 PM »
According to Americanexpress.com

http://www.americanexpress.com/lacidc/en/laccards/viplounges.shtml

it comes with it as no additional fee. However I just called Amex Platinum services and they denied this. Saying it does not come with it at this time, but is available for an addition fee of $399.00.

Has anyone had any experience with this? Does it or does it not (priority pass airport lounges access) come with the Amex Platinum card or not?

Never Mind it shows that that is only for cards if you live in Latin American, Caribbean, and Bermuda. Oh well.

So with the Amex Platinum can one gain access to the Dan Lounge in TLV?

FYI, I got priority pass with the Amex Hilton Surpass card (card has an annual fee of $75) there is a $27 fee per person to enter a lounge with this pass, so it may be worthwhile for some situations.

Around $25 per month - it does not give you SPG gold
