the only thing i really miss with amex is that it is much easier to dispute and win a transaction.
I have heard that their claims department is great. Whether it's $495/ yr better I'm not sure. I was thinking the travel perks would be nice but I'm thinking I don't travel frequently enough to justify the expense. Right now, the Chase Sapphire Preferred seems like the best bet.
