“Unlike many airline, hotel, or other travel rewards cards, Venture X offers multiple flexible ways to redeem rewards,” the company said. “Customers can use miles to book via Capital One Travel, transfer miles to 15+ travel loyalty programs, or redeem rewards for any recent travel purchases, including vacation rentals, flights, hotels, rideshares, cruises, and more.”

New Travel Booking
“One of the hallmarks for Venture X customers is Capital One Travel,” the company added. “The new travel booking experience has innovative features like predictive pricing models and tools to ensure customers get the best offers available. Capital One Travel provides access to thousands of flights, hotels, and rental cars, along with features like free price-drop protection and 24/7 price alert technology.”
In the coming weeks, Capital One Travel said it will offer customers the option to freeze the price of a flight and return up to 14 days later to book it.
In addition to Capital One Travel, Venture X cardholders can also get unlimited access to Capital One Lounges.
“Capital One Lounges offer a modern space full of premium amenities that provide visitors with a best-in-class travel experience from the moment they step through the door,” Capital One said. “This includes an industry-leading food and beverage program focused on locally sourced ingredients, uniquely and sustainably packaged premium grab-and-go selections, and health and wellness amenities including a cycling and a yoga room, and relaxation rooms with eye covers, blankets and other luxury amenities to help you recharge away from the crowds.”
