AA offers Admirals' Club access to Platnum members but only on their international flights (and US flights coming to/from international flights). They also have a fast-track program called the Platinum Challenge. (Go to the AA forum and do a search on Platinum Challenge.) Unfortunately, AA does not serve "real food". In fact, the buy-on-board stuff is apparently bad, too. Twice I've heard gate agents advise people to buy food in the airport and carry it on.
