Oh yeah, guests users support is finally coming to Planner!
I just got asked for help with setting this up for someone, so am researching.
Check out this permissions matrix

Seems to go along with your experience.

We are using it via Teams, and I am a guest user in a Team in another tenant.
First of all I can't create a new planner in the team as a guest. I can however create tasks in an already existing Planner (still as a guest).
Second, when I have created a task, I (as a guest) can't make any new comments on the tast. The comment-field is gone when I enter as a guest.
Third - when another user creates a comment, I can't even see this comment. I do get an email that a comment has been added to the task.
Any other with the same experience her?
The two issues around comments in Planner are now fixed!
As a guest user I can now both read existing and create new comments.

Erlend Moen can i please ask how you managed to solve the problem of guest accounts being able to add comments to a card within MS Planner? Thks
- Erlend MoenApr 10, 2019Iron ContributorI didn't actually do anything - it just started to work. I guess there was a bug somewhere that was fixed? I just tested it out again. I change to another tenants Teams where I am a guest user. I then open a Planner-tab in a channel I use, and can then comment and use Planner as in my own tenant. I also tried to "expand" the planner in Teams so it opens in a separate website to see if it behaves differently. It was the same experience there.
