Link: Learn more about American Express Platinum Card®
The American Express Platinum Card® (review) is a card that’s primarily worth getting for the strong perks that it offers, which for many people, will more than offset the annual fee. In particular, this includes things like up to $600 in annual hotel credits, up to $400 in annual Resy credits, and more.
My main criticism of the Amex Platinum Card is that it’s not actually terribly rewarding for spending, and has limited bonus categories. There are generally better cards for earning Amex Membership Rewards points, with one major exception — airfare purchases. The Amex Platinum is my go-to card for purchasing airfare. In this post, I’d like to share why, and talk about everything you need to know about putting your airfare spending on the card.
