Can I use Membership Rewards® points to book travel on the American Express Travel site?


You can use Membership Rewards® points to cover all or part of your flight, prepaid hotel, vacation or cruise booking through American Express Travel.

When you book your flight with us, there are no blackout dates or seat restrictions, and you can also earn frequent flyer miles with your favorite airlines when using Membership Rewards points.

To use points when booking travel, you need to be logged into your Card's online account. On the checkout page of the reservation that you select under "Payment Information," you'll have the option to apply points to the balance.
