If you are a huge traveler and spend a lot of time in an airport then take the time to review some benefits of lounges available.
I am not paid by AMEX or any other lounges but when i travel it is nice to know that if i get stuck in an airport for long lay overs or even changed flight, there is usually a lounge within a 20min walk.
Im talking places to eat, dine, and even sleep with certain lounges. If you are able to get accepted for an AMEX platinum card then i highly suggest you do it. Even if it is just for the travel benefits like $200 credit for an airline of your choice! There are many others out there so do your research. If your active duty and have good credit, the AMEX Platinum card is great because they have waived the $450 annual fee for new accounts.
If your considering it, jump on the opportunities that are out there to make travel with family or even solo much more enjoyable!
