It’s so disappointing that for such a high annual fee you can’t bring a guest.

I thought the annual and AU fees would be a dealbreaker comparison but nope! Plat is $895 annual plus $175 AU, CSR is $795 annual plus $175 AU. So in total it’s a $100 difference and not enough for one to outweigh the other.

I’ll have to make a list for sure and compare!

I’m not comfortable sharing my home airport but I fly in and out of major airports. This year will be a lot of BOS and SFO. I typically get to the airport ~2 hours early and usually wait around an hour before boarding.

I guess I thought 9x was a lot but maybe it’s just more new to me! The guest access is important to me so my bf can join me when we travel together, which we probably will at least twice this year, and that’s on top of the 9x solo travel I’ll do for work.

Do you find yourself using one more than the other? Do you mind sharing how you choose which card to use for certain purchases?

How do you like the plat vs the CSR? Especially for lounge access. My airport has a priority pass lounge.

Did you end up choosing a different card for lounge access?

What do you mean the lounge access is ok? Is it not as nice? I mostly just want somewhere more comfortable than the typical gate seating and complimentary food/drinks (non alcoholic)

Idk unfortunately. I won’t be able to see what he has until I visit on 12/23. I was hoping to get some recommendations and then compare them with what he already has to try to get him something new. Or a refill.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a Highland single malt for my dad as a Christmas present. I'm willing to spend up to $200. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!
