If there was a second HHonors card with a $200 annual fee that gave extra points I could see a reason to call it Platinum/Gold/some other precious metal...

Thanks Fraser! You actually answered my question.

I looked at my HHonors AMEX and it said PLATINUM right on the front of it!!!! So until I read your post, I was still confused.

Thanks for posting that....I guess I'll pay the $60 for me and my husband to get into the Delta Lounge for our 3 1/2 hour layer @ ATL....bummer.
