Any of which you and your partner can slip into, and feel more than welcomed, with complimentary food, drinks, newspapers, books and in the majority of lounges, internet access.
Companion tickets - friends and family fly with our complements
What could be more satisfying than treating a relative or friend to a special trip? With the Platinum Dollar Card or Platinum Euro Currency Card, every time you book a full-fare business class ticket with our partner airlines, your friend or partner enjoys their flight on us2.
Complimentary upgrades - pleasant surprises every time you travel
It might be roomier aircraft seats than the ones you booked. Or a family-sized luxury suite instead of separate rooms, even an upgrade to a bigger car. When you travel with The Platinum Card, expect plenty of treats along the way, courtesy of our airline, hotel and car hire partners..

Travel insurance benefits - even by comprehensive standards, they're comprehensive*
With the Platinum Card you, your partner, your children and up to 5 Supplementary Cardmembers, their partners and their children are protected by some of the most comprehensive global annual travel insurance benefits1 available anywhere. For example, if you're forced to abandon your trip before departure, you will be refunded up to $/€10,000 towards the cost of your airline and excursion tickets. Or, if you or a member of your family has to go into hospital while you're away, we'll arrange for your emergency treatment fees to be settled directly: up to $/€3.5 million. When you're hiring a car, it's good to know that the optional insurance benefits are already included with your Platinum Dollar Card or Platinum Euro Currency Card. You're even protected whilst skiing and snowboarding and your children are protected with gap year insurance benefits for a whole twelve months on any one trip.
