[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have the AA card and am currently enjoying a free latte and hot breakfast in the Admirals Club at DCA. I got the card for lounge access and free checked baggage since my family travels frequently for long trips with multiple checked bags. Plus: priority boarding.

I can’t imagine flying without it. [/quote]

If OP won’t use the lounge (we aren’t lounge users) the card with the much lower annual fee does everything else for her and the checked bags for one trip easily make up the annual fee. We never arrive in time to use a lounge, intentionally. We want to roll up and basically board. [/quote]

Why wouldn’t you use the lounge? Free drinks/food, nicer space to wait, much cleaner restrooms.

When traveling with my family, it’s nice to fuel up and wait in the lounge.

The free checked bags (up to 4) pays for the annual cc fee in one trip. [/quote]

Because for a $99 annual free we get all those same benefits (bags and priority boarding) without lounge access. If we walk up to the gate and they aren’t ready to board, we arrived too early. We usually take early morning flights and have NO desire to get there early. I’m not arriving early to the airport for lattes and finger food. It’s fine if you like that, we just wouldn’t use it. [/quote]

We get four free checked bags, free seat selection up front, and priority boarding. I travel enough for business that I have connections or deal with delays, etc. so the lounge access comes in handy. [/quote]
