Amex Travel App: How to plan and book trips — and when to use it

You’ve got an Amex card in your wallet—so why aren’t you using their travel app? This week, we’re cutting through the noise. The Amex Travel App lets you book flights, hotels, rental cars—all in one place.

The upside? You can use Membership Rewards points directly, and sometimes you get perks like room upgrades or late checkout. The downside?

Compare first. Know your tools, travel smarter.
