Admirals Club de Miami.
Com a fusão da American Airlines com a US Airways os associados do American Express - The Platinum Card irão perder um dos melhores benefícios do cartão: acesso gratuito aos lounges, em qualquer lugar do mundo a partir de março de 2014.
Essa triste notícia foi enviada para nós pelo ironfire, que nos enviou também o comunicado, em inglês.
Agora, mais do que nunca, a anuidade de R$1.200,00 não se justifica.The American/US Airways merger is expected to close any day now and its effects for consumers will be wide-reaching. Sadly, for American Express Platinum cardholders, this means that “effective March 22, 2014, Consumer, Business and Corporate Platinum and Centurion Card Members will no longer have complimentary access to the American Airlines Admirals Club and US Airways Club lounges as a benefit of their Card Membership. We are disappointed to report that American Airlines and US Airways elected not to renew this benefit.”
Citi and American just released a statement confirming this decision “Citi and American Airlines today announced that beginning in March 2014, the Citi® Executive® / AAdvantage® World Elite MasterCard® will be the only U.S. credit card offering full membership benefits at the American Airlines Admirals Club® airport lounges.”
