Lines: 14 *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** The question as to what of these cards should one prefer (American Express or Diners Club) may seem ridiculous but I am seriously concerned. I want such a card in order to be able to travel around the world. I know that many people will recommend instantly Amex but I have noticed in Europe that Diners is much respected.Also Diners offers a "reserved hotel room" service (Amex offers it for gold cards only). Can anybody list some service facts?, tell about experience or any pitfalls?. Thanks in advance sarmas@topaz (Rutgers Univ.)
