When I got it was $450, they recently raised the prices. Even if you run the calculations, its still worth it.

$550 a year fee

$200 airline credit

$200 Uber credit

$20 Global Entry credit per year (Prorated. Global entry costs $100 per 5 years and AMEX will cover the cost).

Gold status with SPG and Hilton

Lounge access at many airports

Free subscription to GoGo for in flight internet (domestic) And lastly, AMEX Platinum Concierge is still the best service for any card.

5x points on airline purchases.

Chase Sapphire has even better value.

$450 fee

$300 credit per year (When I got this card, I was able to redeem the credit twice due to the timing and how Chase calculates the year.) ALso Chase's credit is far more useful since "travel" is loosely defined for them.

Lounge access

$20 Global Entry Credit per year (used this one for fiance)

Travel insurance

No Foreign Transaction fees

3x points on dining and 3x on travel.
