Amex Platinum and Chase Sapphire made airport lounges the ultimate perk. Capital One’s new travel app targets the next step

Airport lounges, travel portals, and credit card perks have become a competitive front in the fight for affluent travelers.

Now Capital One is adding another piece to that strategy with a dedicated travel app designed to bring booking, rewards, airport access, and trip management into a single platform.

The company announced today that it is rolling out the Capital One Travel App, a standalone application available on iOS and Android that gives cardholders direct access to its travel booking ecosystem.
