For years, I have been fortunate to access @AmericanExpress airport lounges (or their partner lounges). It's one of the best benefits of having the right AMEX card, and I hope I keep it for a long time.
Plaza Premium Lounge at Toronto Pearson
But
not all the lounges are equal. I don't travel an awful lot, so I cannot
write about all the lounges, perhaps you can add your favourites in the
comments. I've used the Plaza Premium lounge at Toronto's Pearson
airport the most, and so far it's the best. It's comfortable and it
offers complimentary food and drinks - not just a few snacks like trail
mix or mini cookies like at the Delta SkyClub lounge (JFK terminal 2).
American Express Centurion lounge in Mexico City
The
Centurion AMEX lounge in Mexico City is impressive. However, it's more
like a restaurant bar and less like an airport lounge, complete with
waiters and staff. The complimentary food is better than at the Delta
SkyClub, but still not a meal like you can have at the Plaza Premium at
Pearson.
Having said this, though, I do
recommend carrying the AMEX Platinum card - if you travel often. In
general it's very nice to be able to relax in a quiet comfortable place
at an airport, even if the food/snacks vary from lounge to lounge.
