The Indian Airlines American Express Card is one of the best in class in case you are a frequent flyer on Indian Airlines.
For a small annual fees, we can get loads of benfits.

7: Amex has a tie up with major hotels in India and world wide, because of which we can get 20% discount.
The customer service of American express is excellent. Every time I have called Amex rep, it didnt took me more than 2 minutes.
Also the Membership rewards are excellent.
The only drawback is that it is a charge card, and the card holder is required to pay the amount in due time.
There are added benifits when we go for a indian airlines gold card.
Overall it is good to hold a card, even if you travel once in a year..!! (because you can use the free upgrade coupon)
