what benefits does the presidental plus card have besides lounge access (which you have anyway)?
Do you really enjoy airport lounges that much that you go there even when you arent flying?
It's great to be able to go through security to pick someone up and then go for a free beer or ginger ale with amaretto on the rocks...
