As travel portals continue to evolve, bundling options have become increasingly popular among airlines, hotels, and credit card platforms. But in a move that bucks that trend, American Express is eliminating one of its long-standing features: the ability to book hotel and flight packages.

Beginning July 31, 2025, American Express cardmembers will no longer be able to book hotel and flight packages together through AmexTravel.com.

Here’s what you need to know about this change.

AmexTravel.com Will No Longer Offer Hotel + Flight Packages After July 31

Effective July 31, 2025, American Express is ending the option to book hotel and flight packages together on AmexTravel.com.

While you’ll still be able to book hotels and flights separately using Membership Rewards or your Amex card, the convenience — and potential savings — of bundling both in a single booking is going away.

This is a notable shift from AmexTravel.com, especially because bundling is growing in popularity across the travel industry. Airlines, hotels, and other credit card portals like Chase Travel and Capital One Travel are pushing package deals with perks and discounts. Amex hasn’t explained why it’s eliminating this ability — whether it’s low usage, tech issues, or a strategy change — but the move looks like a simplification of its booking platform.

If you have any trips lined up with bundled bookings, make sure to lock those in before the end of July. Existing packages booked before that date won’t be affected. This may feel like a step back for those who prefer to have everything on a single itinerary. But for those who prefer more flexibility or typically book hotels and flights separately anyway, the impact should be minimal.

Bottom Line:

Starting July 31, 2025, Amex will no longer let you bundle hotels and flights in one booking through AmexTravel.com — but you can still book each separately as usual.

Final Thoughts

While the end of hotel + flight packages on AmexTravel.com may disappoint some travelers who value the convenience and potential savings of bundling, it’s unlikely to impact those who prefer booking separately or are flexible with their travel plans.

For now, American Express is focusing on streamlining its booking platform rather than offering bundled deals. If you regularly use AmexTravel.com for packages, be sure to book before July 31, 2025, or prepare to adjust your approach moving forward.
