    That's right, it's only the Platinum charge card and not the Platinum credit card. I think even with the charge card, you still need to apply for a Priority Pass to get in free of charge although they may have changed that since I last had that card (back in the day when I could afford the £300 annual fee for the card!)

    You do,but it is free. You also get free access at their partner airline company lounges which are generally the large US ones, i.e Delta, continental etc.
