Default Amex Platinum Card and Airline lounges

I saw a commercial today for Amex Platinum, and checked this website. Looks like a great benefit. Does anyone have any first hand experience with this. Seems that it would be a great benefit for a commuter.

Select all airlines, and all destinations for a complete list of participating clubs.

It works everywhere except UAL's Red Carpet Club. It's the best card I've ever had. AMEX travel is awesome as well...and the companion travel benefit works well...I've used it 3 times now.

Still worth it. The club access alone seals the deal for me.

I have it.

Comes with the Premier Pass (There is the occn'l United Lounge - which are overrated anyway) and the Hilton Gold card

Haven't used the companion travel yet....but soon I'm sure...

If you stay in enough Hilton's that provide Breakfast/snacks/dinner on the Executive Floor, it'll pay for itself quickly
