Travel booking safety checklist
Simple checks to make before entering payment details on a travel website.
Guide
Check the web address and make sure the booking page uses HTTPS. Read the company or partner name, contact information and booking conditions before entering payment details.
Review the passenger names, travel dates, airports, room type or itinerary, baggage and cancellation rules. A small data-entry error can create a costly correction later.
After purchase, keep the confirmation, ticket or reservation number, payment receipt and customer-support contact details in a place you can access while travelling.
Frequently asked questions
Does HTTPS prove a site is legitimate?
HTTPS protects the connection but does not by itself prove that a company is trustworthy. Check the provider and booking details as well.
What should I save after booking?
Save the confirmation, reference number, itinerary, payment receipt and support details.
Before you travel
