Hi
I have had the Magnus card for last couple of years and recently got it changed to the Burgundy version

Now with all the halla on devaluation and additional confusion on Burgundy Magnus version I am clueless what are the current benefits of the Burgundy Magnus card

Can anyone help tell me that or direct me to a post that summaries it? (I know about the Magnus devaluation thread which very nicely summarized the devalued benefits of the Magnus card but I am looking for the Magnus Burgundy version)

Did you even click on the link mentioned above and read through the PDF to get the answer of your question?
Or you are expecting others to do that for you?
When the resource is readily available to you, then try to make some effort to utilize it.

Since it is LTF, you're getting benefits of a premium card essentially for free. The 8 meet and greet airport concierge experience is a unique feature provided by Magnus. I used it this time for an international travel, and definitely it made a difference. Immigration got done quickly and also security check was done via the business class line. Finally, we were taken till our gate from the lounge in a buggy, which is a nice and funny experience.

Apart from this, you get unlimited lounge access for yourself, 8 guest lounge visits a year (very helpful if you're traveling with kids), discounts on bookmyshow, 5:4 miles conversion ratio. I mean, since it is LTF, what's the point of not holding it? Just keep holding it.

Yes I am not going to close it ...I just wanted to ensure I know the benefits fully so that I can utilize them wherever possible

I used the meet and greet once in bangalore a year back for domestic travel...it was quite useless...the person was with us the whole time but he was standing in line with us holding our luggage etc....essentially nothing changed except we had a porter....will try again for our next trip and on the international trip too

there is one important thing that people miss, if you have previous points from the old Magnus, those points will not be redeemable at the 5:4 ratio, they will be redeemable at the 5:2 ratio, only the new points accrued after the burgundy upgrade will be eligible for the new ratio of 5:4...

This is incorrect.
Its allowing me to redeem all points @ 5:4
Only thing to note is that the Burgundy Magnus Points have to be used up and then the Edge Rewards bucket comes into consideration but at the same ratio.

Don't maintain TRV just for this card. If you have your banking ecosystem in Axis Bank itself, then it's fine.
