The name on your airline ticket must be identical to the travel document you are using to travel – e.g., Passport, Birth Certificate, Government issued photo ID (where applicable). 

Airlines normally do not modify the name on a flight ticket after the ticket has been purchased. In cases where they do allow a name correction, you may be charged a fee.

Almost every major airline now offers Electronic tickets or e-tickets in place of a standard paper ticket. An e-ticket is an electronic confirmation issued by the airline with the passenger's name, ticket number, itinerary and fare information.

You should present your e-ticket in addition to the required personal ID documentation (e.g., a valid passport, birth certificate, etc.) at the specified airline's check-in counter. 

We strongly recommend that you print copies of any travel documents that are sent to you electronically, including your e-ticket. Airline representatives and/or Customs officials may (at any time) request to view your e-ticket. You may be denied boarding if you do not have your e-ticket available upon request.

Your itinerary is your personal travel schedule but this document will not grant you boarding access. Your e-ticket is the only acceptable document for boarding access.

Your e-ticket should display an airline ticket number and the status of your reservation as "Confirmed".

We recommend that you always carry a paper receipt of your e-ticket for both international and trans-border travel.

The receipt is the confirmation that we send to you by e-mail at the e-mail address provided at the time of booking. We recommend that you print this and all your other travel documentation, including your e-ticket. It is also a good idea to leave an extra copy of these documents with a friend or family member while you are traveling.

Seat selection varies from airline to airline. If you would like to book a particular seat for your flight, please contact the Rewards Centre at 1.877.877.3703.

Yes. You or the person you designate can book travel for anyone you choose, such as family members or friends.

frequent flyer program (FFP) is a loyalty program offered by airlines. Typically, airline customers enrolled in the program accumulate frequent flyer miles (kilometers, points, segments etc...) corresponding to the distance flown on that airline or its partners. Point/mile accumulation does vary from airline to airline.

We provide you with the capability to enter in your frequent flyer number when making an airline reservation. Please note that we are only passing your frequent flyer number to the airline. We are not responsible for the issuance or redemption of miles, points or benefits of airline reward programs.

To redeem your frequent flyer points/miles you must contact the airline directly. We cannot redeem miles on your behalf.
