We will send a confirmation via email within 24 hours of you confirming your booking. In most
cases when booking on our website, you will receive a confirmation immediately following the
completion of your booking. If you have not received confirmation, it is possible you gave us the
wrong email address - in this case please call us ASAP. It is very important we have the correct
details on file in case of any schedule changes.
If you have not received your confirmation email, it is possible your email server has classified
the email as spam. Please check your Junk folder.

Most airline fares are non-refundable unless you have specifically chosen a fare that permits
refunds.
To cancel your ticket and check if any refund is due, please click the ‘Refunds’ button on our
Support page.
Please note after sales fees must be paid before requesting changes or refunds. Service fees
apply for all changes to bookings regardless of the reason for the change.
We can certainly check this for you. Please note the following:
- E-travel after sales fees must be paid before our consultants can check any booking
- Not all airline fare rules allow changes
- If an airline allows changes, there will be a change fee and fare difference charges
- All changes made by e-travel are subject to administration fees, regardless of the
reason for changing
To see if your ticket is eligible, please click on the ‘Date Change’ button on our Support page.
Airlines (as a rule) do not permit changes for you or family members due to illness. We
therefore recommend that all passengers secure Travel Insurance in advance of travel.
As an agent to the airlines, we must adhere to their rules. If you have been granted a
permission/waiver for a refund or change by contacting an airline directly, please provide us
with an airline contact name/number/email address so we can verify this.
It is important that you have the correct information on your documents, and you have a printed
copy of same. If you see anything incorrect in relation to your travel details, please contact us
immediately via our Support page.
Please note charges will apply to corrections and changes, even if they are noticed immediately
after booking.
Airlines do not allow name changes.
Airlines will allow slight name corrections where a genuine mistake has been made when
entering the name during the booking process. All airlines require the name in your booking
to match the name on your passport but only require your first and last name. Middle
names are not required.
If you need to correct the spelling, please click the ‘Name Correction’ button on our Support
page.
Please note all name corrections will incur both airline fees and an e-travel admin fee as
updating names involves liaising with the airline for permission and reissuing e-Tickets.
All prices on our site come directly from the airlines and change regularly based on demand and
availability of seats. As we use a live booking system, the availability and fares are outside of our
control. Once you have booked and received a confirmation number, the price is unlikely to
change.
However, prices are only guaranteed once we have successfully issued the e-Ticket.
If, for some reason the price does change after you have received a confirmation then we will
contact you and you will be given the choice of being fully refunded or continuing with the new
price.
Unfortunately, airlines do not allow this. As soon as you do not appear for one flight the
remaining flights in your booking are automatically cancelled by every airline system.
If you need to change your itinerary and avoid having your flights cancelled, you need to
contact us via our Support page.
Passengers who "No Show" for flights and have their booking cancelled will need to buy new
tickets or pay significant no show, change and fare difference fees - if the airline permits.
All connections offered on our site are valid connections according to the airline rules,
accounting for airport advice on any terminal changes or security checks. We highly
recommend you go straight to your connecting gate on arrival.
If you are travelling on separate tickets, you need to allow yourself sufficient time to transit
as you may need to collect bags, change terminal, clear immigration etc. If you are on
separate tickets and you do miss your connection, you may need to buy a new ticket
If your ticket is refundable this can take 4-6 weeks to be processed. The process is
controlled by the airline so timings can vary.
Please note admin fees of €/£50 apply per passenger when processing refunds.
We recommend that all passengers purchase travel insurance before travelling.
Travel insurance (by Blue Insurance) is currently offered to Irish customers during our
booking process.
For details on a policy booked via Blue Insurance, please contact them directly using the
same contact details that were entered when making the booking.
The Advance Passenger Information System or APIS was established by U.S. Customs and
Border Protection. APIS provides a limited number of pieces of data (identification details from
the passport and basic flight information) from commercial airlines to the computer system of the
destination country.
When travelling to or from certain countries, passengers are required to provide Advance
Passenger Information (API) before they check in or they will be unable to fly.
It is your responsibility to check if the destination you are travelling to requires API information.
New requirements state that airlines must provide certain passport information about all
passengers on their aircraft before the aircraft leaves Ireland or the UK. This information is
known as "Advance Passenger Information" (API or APIS data).
APIS information can be added on the airline’s official website by logging into their "Manage My
Booking" section using the airline booking reference found on your booking confirmation.
When submitting your API details, the airlines will require the following information:
- The passport/ID card type
- Passport/ID number
- Date of issue of passport/ID card
- Date of expiry of passport/ID card
- Country of issue of passport/ID card
- Nationality of passport holder
- Date of birth of passport holder
We charge fees per passenger plus any charges levied by the airline for any change (for any
reason) to a booking.
These fees are separate to any after sales fee paid already and range from €50/£50-
€100/£100 per passenger.
Fees are listed in our Terms & Conditions which must be agreed to pre-booking. Our Terms
& Conditions can be found in the footer of our website (at the bottom).
Airlines often change times/aircraft due to demand and other operational reasons. We are
notified by the airlines and action these schedule changes prioritising those travelling in the
coming 4-8 weeks. On occasion you may receive a notification from an airline or notice this
on their website before we have contacted you.
We will review the booking and the alternative flights offered by the airline and provide you
with options. If you are unhappy with the alternatives on offer and the alternatives are
significantly different to the original booking, you may be entitled to a full refund.
Please note all amendments will incur an admin fee.
If your baggage allowance shows as PC, this stands for “piece”, i.e. “1 piece of baggage”. 2 PCs
stands for “2 pieces of baggage” If you need more information on the permitted weight allowance
per piece for individual airlines, please
click here.
Please note airlines now provide different weight allowances per "piece" depending on the price
of the ticket. For example, an airline’s lowest fare may not even include a bag or may only permit
15kg while a "standard" fare may permit 23kg.
When making your booking online, we display your baggage allowance during the booking
process. When your booking is confirmed, you can find baggage allowance information on
your e-Ticket, booking confirmation email, and on the following baggage information page.
Please note some airlines do not provide baggage allowance on their lowest fares so it is
important to read what is being offered during the booking process.
Yes. The baggage allowance shown on your e-Ticket is a per person baggage allowance.
However, please note that infants do not qualify for baggage allowance!
Airlines cannot and will not guarantee that your seat is reserved. This is because there may
be an aircraft change for operational reasons before you travel, sometimes occurring at the
time of travel. Airlines sometimes change aircraft type to accommodate varying load factors
and for other reasons. When changes such as these are made, reserved seats are
reassigned, and individuals may lose the seat they selected.
Requesting your seat is possible at the time of booking or at a later date through the "manage
my booking" section on the airline’s website. Some airlines incur a charge for this service which
needs to be paid directly to the airline.
You will need a valid passport and your booking reference to check-in online. You may also
be asked to verify other details from your reservation.
There are many variations, so it is important to check the airline's website. For airlines that do not
allow seat selection until check-in, we strongly advise that you check-in online ASAP to give
yourself the best chance at securing your preferred seating.
If the airline on your booking does not permit online check-in, you may check-in at the
airport. Please bring your original travel confirmation to check-in.
Generally, you can book 330 days in advance.
We advise all passengers to arrive two and a half hours before departure on short-haul
(European) flights and at least three hours before departure on long-haul (US and Asia)
flights.
We also recommend you plan your route before you travel and allow plenty of time for
traffic and possible delays through airport security.
Always consider more time to check-in during peak travel seasons!
Unfortunately, after the booking has been completed, we are unable to add another bag.
Please contact the airline directly for information on how to add a bag and the relevant fees.
The U.S. Authorities continue to make changes to their entry requirements. As of 1 April
2016, all travellers wishing to enter the US under the VWP will need to hold a passport with
an integrated chip (an ePassport). A passport is an ePassport if it carries the internationally
recognised symbol on the front cover. For more information and for the most up to date
information, we strongly recommend that customers visit:
https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/
Or contact the nearest US Embassy or Consulate.
We would like to remind our customers that it’s the sole responsibility of the person
travelling to check any visa or other advance travel requirements with the relevant embassy
or consulate.
Citizens from countries other than the United States need to obtain an online authorisation before
flying to Canada.
More information on ETA is available at
www.canada.ca/eTA.
We would like to remind our customers that it’s the sole responsibility of the person travelling to

Yes - you need to add your API/APIS information for all the airlines with which you are flying.
We will send a confirmation via email within 24 hours of you confirming your booking. In most
cases when booking on our website, you will receive a confirmation immediately following the
completion of your booking. If you have not received confirmation, it is possible you gave us the
wrong email address - in this case please call us ASAP. It is very important we have the correct

Your e-Ticket or "Electronic Ticket Passenger Document" is the document you will need to
take with you to the airport to check-in for your flight. This has replaced the traditional
paper ticket. In some cases, the airline doesn’t require a printout of your e-Ticket, however
we strongly recommend you have one with you. For accommodation bookings, you should
always have a copy of your printed confirmation and/or voucher.
Your e-Ticket is not your boarding pass. It is a separate document to your boarding pass.
It is your responsibility to obtain your boarding cards.
This can be done either through online check-in, directly on the airline’s website, or if this is not
available, you will receive it when you check-in at the airport.
Please note that many airlines including all low-cost airlines insist that online check-in is
completed, and boarding pass printed in advance of you arriving at the airport.
You will find the information you need to access the airline’s website on your e-Ticket. You
will need to have the airline locator, which is a unique 6-character code with a mix of letters
and numbers, for example A12BC3.
You may also need some other items of information. These vary by airline but may include
departure point, destination, lead passenger name and surname etc. You should have your
passport to hand when checking in online.
Boarding cards are issued by the airlines only. Use the e-Ticket we have provided you with
to check-in online (if the airline permits) or at the airport.
If checking in at the airport please ensure to arrive a minimum of 2 hours before departure
when flying short-haul (Europe) and a minimum of 3 hours prior to departure when flying
long-haul (USA, Asia).
Yes. In some cases, the airline does not require a printout of your e-Ticket, however we strongly
recommend you have one with you.
We strongly advise that customer book travel insurance at the time of booking their flights and
accommodation, and that a copy of the insurance policy terms and conditions are carried with
you on your trip.
You must check directly with the airline before you travel. Permissions and charges on these
items vary widely by airline and aircraft type and are subject to availability. In most cases,
additional charges will apply.
For most international flights with a connection, your baggage will be tagged to your
destination country if you are travelling on the same airline. The same applies if you are
travelling on a “through” ticket on an inter-carrier agreement for example Qantas / Emirates.
There are however exceptions to the rules:
- Travelling to the USA, you must pick up your baggage at the first entry point. You
must then clear US immigration (unless travelling from Ireland and immigration
already complete), and you must then follow transfer signage to re-check your
baggage for your onward flight.
- If you are travelling on two or more separate tickets you will almost always need to
re-check your baggage. There are some exceptions to this rule.
The most important thing to do is to ask at the airport check-in desk and always double
check the baggage tag you receive at check-in as this will show where you will collect your
bag.
If you have a particular meal preference you can choose a preferred meal option during the
online booking process on our site. Please note that meal requests cannot be guaranteed.
You may also request this on the airline’s website using the reference number at the top of
your e-Ticket (airline info).
Most long-haul scheduled flights will include at least one meal; however, some will charge
locally and increasingly, airlines are withdrawing second meal services on long-haul flights
below a certain duration. Please check directly with your airline.
The majority of airlines will not provide a meal of any kind for an infant. Please ensure you
take baby food and milk for your infant when travelling.The majority of airlines will not provide a meal of any kind for an infant. Please ensure you
