USA Platinum cardholders reported $100, $200 and $500 versions of a peremptory retention offer:
Most US lounges, and some AA lounges, had also accepted Priority Pass. Priority Pass access ended on 3.22.2014. See post 649.
You will receive up to $X00 in statement credits toward American Airlines and US Airways incidental fees charged to your Card from March 22, 2014 to December 31, 2014....These statement credits are in addition to the $200 Airline Fee Credit2 benefit already included in your Membership
As a result of the recently announced merger between American Airlines and US Airways, we have been informed by both lounge partners that they’ve unfortunately chosen to no longer participate in the Priority Pass lounge access program effective March 22, 2014.

FWIW, it worked fine for me on 10/4 at the AA clubs in both SFO and DFW.
CO dropping the Amex Plat lounge benefit was an important factor in me leaving CO/UA. Would be very disappointing if AA were to drop it too.

AA lounge/admirals club access potentially going away?
I'm surprise this thread is still going on based on one comment from a CSR. AA lounge still comes with the Plat card. Just go to exploreplatinum.americanexpress.com
Enjoy complimentary access to participating airline lounges of American Airlines Admirals Club® lounges, US Airways® Club, and Delta Sky Club® for you and your immediate family, or up to two traveling companions.

The OP posited that a three year AC contract with Amex was due to expire in Oct, 2011 unless renewed. Clearly, if true, it was renewed. But now, Oct, 2014 would mark another three years, and given the AA bankruptcy, potential merger, etc. Amex may not be in a position to guarantee AC access for a full membership year starting in October. ...just a theory.

They could have also just been updating the website and somebody fat fingered a block of text that gets called up on various different pages.
That extra comma has been bugging the heck out of me, but something like that would be marginally more acceptable than the website editors not understanding how to properly use punctuation.

No Admiral Club Access for AMEX
Mrs. pfbloom just received a targeted Platinum card offer in the mail from AMEX offering 100K miles for sign up.
However, in reading through the benefits book I noted that airline club access is promoted as USAir and Delta only. There is no mention of AA Admirals Club access anywhere in the promotion.
Priority Club individual is still included.
