HSBC TravelOne Credit Card introduces complimentary airport transfers for 2026

HSBC Credit Cards have been on a resurgence over the past couple of years, with the introduction of new cards and the revamp of the existing credit cards to make them more competitive. Some of the entry-level cards that have been revamped include HSBC Live+ and HSBC Platinum Credit Card. On the higher end, the HSBC Premier Credit Card has been revamped (twice by now), and a new HSBC TravelOne Credit Card has been introduced. And lastly, the multiplier and transfer features were introduced.

HSBC TravelOne enhanced with complimentary airport transfers

HSBC has now introduced one more feature in the race to make TravelOne the number two card in its portfolio, and a sort of a mirror image of the HSBC Premier, at a lower price point, though. HSBC will now offer 4 airport transfers per annum, i.e., one per quarter, to holders of the HSBC TravelOne Credit Card. Just that your card needs to be over 45 days old, and you should have had it activated.

The image shows a black HSBC TravelOne credit card with a chip and contactless symbol. The card features the text "T1" prominently in the center. The Mastercard logo is at the bottom right corner. The background is a gradient of dark gray shades.

Throughout 2026, TravelOne Cardmembers (Primary) will receive 4 complimentary domestic airport transfers. You need to place your car request at least 72 hours before the booking is made, and you can make one request per calendar quarter. The free range has also been decided by cities:

  • Group 1 Cities (30 KM): Gurgaon, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Kolkata
  • Group 2 Cities (50 KM): Bangalore, Navi Mumbai, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, Manesar, Hyderabad, Kochi
  • Group 3 Cities (30 KM): Agra, Amritsar, Ahmedabad, Aurangabad, Lucknow, Ludhiana, Belgaum, Dharwad, Hubli, Haridwar, Jalandhar, Ranchi, Patna, Surat, Varanasi, Udaipur, Nagpur, Mangalore, Mysore, Bhopal, Gwalior, Jodhpur, Srinagar, Pondicherry, Jammu, Vishakhapatnam, Indore, Bhubaneswar, Bhuj, Bikaner, Calicut, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Vadodara, Combatore, Nasik, Jaipur, Kanpur, Kolhapur, Raipur, Rajkot

The cars allocated will be Toyota HyCROSS or similar premium SUVs, which can accommodate 3 large-sized bags and 3 passengers only. One will need to email ECO Mobility to make the booking.

Why should you apply for the HSBC TravelOne now?

If you sign up for the HSBC TravelOne now, you get cashback of INR 1000 on spending INR 10,000 within the first 30 days. Plus, you’ll also get 3,000 bonus reward points when you spend INR 1,00,000 in the first 90 days. Apply Now.

Bottomline

HSBC Travel One now offers car transfers to and from the airport in various cities, one per quarter. This is a great addition, even if on a pilot basis, for the HSBC TravelOne Credit Card, even if only for one year for now. For a card that only costs INR 4,999 per annum, it gets you multipliers, miles transfers, discounts on various travel booking portals, and now it even gives you four free car transfers, which perhaps cost well over 10,000 INR when put together.
