The Platinum Card Service brings you savings on air fares and hotel accommodations every day of the week - but not everyone knows it! Although Platinum Card membership signifies the finer things in life, that does not mean you have to pay over the odds when using the service to make travel bookings. Far from it. In fact, The Platinum Card Service offers some of the very best air fares and hotel rates that you'll find - anywhere. Thanks to the huge buying power of American Express, the world's largest travel organisation, Cardmembers can benefit from special rates that have been negotiated on your behalf with the world's leading airlines and hotel groups. These savings, combined with a level of personal service you just won't find elsewhere, provide excellent value to Platinum Cardmembers. Says Steve Doran, Head of The Platinum Card Service: "While recognising that we provide a first class travel service, many Cardmembers also assume that they will have to pay a premium for it. That simply isn't the case. "Our aim is to provide consistently low prices which meet the day-to-day travel needs of our Cardmembers."
