I believe that Amex is the only company to maintain offices around the
world in major cities. These are very useful, they are staffed by english
speaking personnel for travel arrangements, and as an added bonus, let 
you cash your american personal checks (up to $400 a month or so) against
hard cash/traveler's checks. Also, if you lose Amex trvelers checks or
card, theirs is known to be the best and fastest customer service, travel
mags and business mags occasionally will stage comparison tests, losing
checks and cards in foreign cities during holiday weekends. Amex has in the
past consistently come out on top.
