Well I think this is the first time that this card is mentioned here.. Amex Platinum Aeromexico is a good card (in my opinion)... since I got this card, I followed the rules and I got “Platino Status” with Aeromexico, and because AM is a Skyteam member, I automatically went Skyteam Elite Plus member (not only Elite), so I have priority in boarding and also free access to AM VIP Rooms and when flying business class I also have access to many Skyteam VIP rooms.. well some other benefits are:

• Give the miles for one ticket and TWO people will fly for your miles, also in transatlantic flights… (depending on how much you spent with the card, is how many certificates you will have to make your miles fly two)
• Complementary access to all AM VIP rooms in Mexico and also the ones in US.
• Complementary access to skyteam VIP rooms when flying business class or when flying international even in coach class.
• Traditional platinum benefits (Fine hotels and resorts program, the cruise program, etc, you receive a “free” magazine, the platinum travel services 24/7, Fine Dinning, etc.)
• If you get the “Platino Status with AM” fly on first class (Clase Premier) you and a partner because you can request an upgrade for two… fly first all over Mexico or from Mexico (any city where AM flies) to the US, or to South America… if you are flying to Europe, you need to give kilometers or miles for the upgrade unless you use the 2x1 first class benefit.
• Get 4.8 kilometers per dollar spent with aeromexico, instead of 1 point per dollar with the traditional MR program.
• Get the Skyteam Elite Plus status for a year! If you qualify.
• Fly first class in all the new planes from AM 737-700, 767 and 777 300ER
• Receive a free certificate per year to fly two people giving miles for just one, even if you don’t use the card.. (a rare thing I think)
• Speak with Amex Mexico all over the world calling them collect for any question or service request.
• Transfer points from other frequent programs to aeromexico’s “Club Premier” program and make those points fly two people instead of one (using your certificates)… receive all the miles from Delta, Continental etc, all Skyteam airlines and do the same.

I’ll try to recall more benefits, but as you can see you can spent a weekend in Cancun, Los Cabos or Acapulco pretty often thanks to this card.

Hope this help for those living in Mexico or with a place in Mexico and deciding which card to use.

Regards,
