Relation For Plan

class Plan extends AppModel{ 

public $primaryKey='plan_id';

public $hasMany = array(
    'ProductPlan'=>array(
        'className'    => 'ProductPlan',
        'foreignKey'   => 'plan_id' 
    )
);

Product

class Product extends AppModel{ 

public $primaryKey='product_id';

public $hasMany = array(
    'ProductsUser'=>array(
        'className'    => 'ProductsUser',
        'foreignKey'   => 'product_id'  
    ),
    'ProductsUserNode'=>array(
        'className'    => 'ProductsUserNode',
        'foreignKey'   => 'product_id'  
    ),
    'ProductPlan'=>array(
        'className'    => 'ProductPlan',
        'foreignKey'   => 'product_id'  
    )
);

for Product Plan

class ProductPlan extends AppModel{
var $primaryKey='product_plan_id';
 public $belongsTo = array(
    'Product' => array(
        'className'    => 'Product',
        'foreignKey'   => 'product_id'
    ),
    'Plan' => array(
        'className'    => 'Plan',
        'foreignKey'   => 'plan_id'
    )       

     );
public $hasMany = array(
    'ProductPlansUserNode'=>array(
        'className'    => 'ProductPlansUserNode',
        'foreignKey'   => 'product_plan_id' 
    ),
);

}

You should simply be able to use 'contain':-

$p_plan = $this->Product->find('all', array(
    'contain' => array('Plan')
));

This will return all your products, with their associated plans. Your Product and Plan models need a hasAndBelongToMany relationship. There is no need to define a model for your joins table.

class Product AppModel {
    ...
    public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array('Plan');
    ...
}

class Plan AppModel {
    ...
    public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array('Product');
    ...
}

As a side note I'd personally avoid overriding CakePHP's default way of handling primary keys. It is better to stick with convention and use id.
