I have both. Get the CSR, unless Centurion Lounge access is super important to you and your main airport is one of the few airports with a Centurion lounge. PP lounges are hit or miss - depends on which airport you're at

How are priority pass lounges. Any good?

Thanks. I’m out of PHL and that has a great Amex lounge.
