Flight booked using my brother's credit card

Flight booked using my brother's credit card - Person Paying Using Her Smartwatch

My brother has booked flights for my family using his credit card, and he is supposed to fly from another country. It is on Malindo Air and they asked for a copy of the passport of the person who purchased the tickets and an image of the front of his credit card.

Should we have also a letter from him, certifying that he purchased the tickets on our behalf?



Best Answer

Supply what the company has requested, because that's what they want.

A letter "certifying" the purchase is worthless, as anyone could write it - it wouldn't have any weight.

A passport is an official document, and the card photocopy is to ensure that the purchaser does have physical access to the card itself

Can I let someone else use my flight credit?

Normally, a future flight credit is non-transferrable and therefore must be used by the same traveler it was issued to. However, all future flight credits that were issued for tickets purchased on or before August 31, 2021, can now be used to book travel for anyone, including yourself, friends, or family.

Can someone else book my flight for me?

Yes, someone else can buy your plane ticket for you. Not only can you buy a plane ticket for someone else, at Alternative Airlines, but you can also have someone buy a plane ticket on your behalf. Just make sure that they have all your correct details (name, date of birth etc) to buy the flight.

Do airlines ask for credit card on check-in?

No, the credit card is used for the payment of the ticket only. Depending on the requirements of airport authorities, you will need to present your travel documents and a mobile boarding pass, a paper boarding pass printed out by you or a paper boarding pass picked up from the check-in desk.
