How promo codes and coupons are applied at checkout

Promo codes and coupons allow you to receive discounts or special offers when booking travel. Applying them correctly at checkout ensures you get the advertised benefit. Here is how the process typically works:


Where to enter a promo code or coupon  

  • Booking flow: During the online booking process (flights, hotels, packages, or other travel services), look for a field labeled "Promo code," "Coupon code," or "Discount code" on the checkout or payment page.

  • Before payment: You must usually enter and apply the code before completing payment. Once you proceed with payment, it may not be possible to add the code retroactively.

How to apply the code  

  1. Enter the promo or coupon code exactly as it appears, including any capital letters, numbers, or symbols.

  2. Click "Apply," "Redeem," or similar to validate the code.

  3. If valid, the discount or offer will reflect on your order summary or payment breakdown before you proceed with payment.

Why a promo code might not work  

  • Expired code: Many promo codes are time-limited.

  • Usage limits: Some codes are restricted to one use per customer or per account.

  • Eligibility restrictions: The code may only apply to specific travel dates, routes, fare classes, or minimum booking amounts.

  • Incorrect entry: Entering the code incorrectly (extra spaces, typos) can cause it to be rejected.

Tips for using promo codes and coupons  

  • Always review the terms and conditions of the promo code to ensure your booking is eligible.

  • Enter the code early in the checkout process so you have time to correct any errors or choose an alternative if the code is not applicable.

  • If you encounter errors applying the code, contact customer support before completing the booking.

By following these steps, you can easily apply promo codes or coupons and enjoy additional savings on your travel bookings.
