Just wondering if there are differences in benefits between the business plat. charge card and personal plat charge card. I know the annual fee is $55 less for the business card, and I didn't see the international companion ticket program at the business plat. site. Between the two, which one should I get? Right now, I do have the Business Gold Rewards charge card and personal blue card. Thanks for your time...

Amex also has detailed info on benefits each card offers on it's website. I cannot post links now, because I'm replying from my Treo. I will post once I'm back in the office.
PS above mentioned threads more likely do include those links
Personal Platinum Card has, essentially, its own comprehensive website...

Information about Business Platinum is diffused. You have probably seen this summary...

...which omits mention of the International Airline Companion program, but there is also this page...

However, make sure you search for discussions of this benefit before giving it weight in your decision.

Thanks Mia for posting those. I could not do it from my Treo.
