Amex Platinum Card Confirmed my $100 Credit and is the Card Still Worth Keeping?

American Express sent me an email confirming that I would be given a $100 statement credit for American Airlines & US Airways incidental fees because I had previously called stating how I was not pleased with the card getting rid of AA and US lounge access starting March 22, 2014.

I’m glad that they confirmed via email but as my card’s annual fee is due soon I am contemplating still canceling the card because I’ve redeemed my $200 airline incremental fee credit for the year and I have gotten global entry which the card reimburses you for. Yes I will be missing out on the DFW and LAS Centurion Lounges but is it worth the $450 annual fee? I am already getting the Priority Pass with my Hilton Surpass card, Admiral Lounge access with my new AA Exec Amex card, and Lounge Club with my Chase Ink card so I think I’m covered.

There is currently a public offer of 40,000 bonus miles after 3k in spend within the first 3 months but is it still worth it after they remove AA and US lounge access?
