Which points programs do you support?

We accept points from U.S.-issued cards with American Express Membership Rewards, Chase Ultimate Rewards, and Capital One Miles. Your concierge will confirm eligibility based on your specific card.

How much are my points worth?

Points are redeemed at a fixed rate of 1 point = $0.009. For example, 100,000 points = $900 off your booking.

Do I need to transfer the points myself?

No. Once you've confirmed you'd like to pay with points, your travel concierge will handle the process and provide any required instructions.

Is this affiliated with my credit card provider?

No. "Pay with Points" is an independent service offered by our agency. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by American Express, Chase, or Capital One. All transfers are voluntary and final.

Which credit cards do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. Both credit and debit cards work seamlessly for flight bookings.

Is it safe to enter my credit card information online?

Yes. Our platform uses SSL encryption, secure payment gateways, and 3D Secure authentication to protect your details. Your information is never stored after the transaction is completed.

Can I use an international credit card?

Yes, we accept cards issued by banks worldwide, as long as your card is enabled for international online purchases.

What is 3D Secure and how does it work?

3D Secure adds an extra layer of protection to online card payments. You may be asked to confirm the purchase with a code, Face ID, fingerprint, or app prompt to help prevent fraud.

Do you charge extra fees for credit card payments?

No, we don't add extra fees for using a credit card. The price you see is the price you pay—regardless of the card you choose.

Can I use Google Pay or Apple Pay for my flight booking?

Yes, absolutely! Both Google Pay and Apple Pay are accepted sitewide for all flight bookings. They work with most major credit and debit cards stored in your mobile wallet, making it easy to book flights using your preferred payment method.

Is mobile payment secure for booking flights?

Mobile payments are among the most secure payment methods available. Both Google Pay and Apple Pay use tokenization, which means your actual card number is never shared with the merchant. Each transaction requires biometric authentication or your device PIN, adding an extra security layer that traditional card payments don't offer.

Do I need a specific type of phone to use mobile payments?

Google Pay works on Android devices running Android 5.0+ with NFC capability and is also available through web browsers. Apple Pay requires an iPhone 6 or later, iPad Air 2 or later, or a Mac with Touch ID. Both services can be used for online purchases regardless of NFC availability.

What if I need to make changes to my booking paid with mobile payment?

Changes to your flight booking follow the same airline policies regardless of payment method. If refunds are necessary, they'll be processed back to the original card stored in your mobile wallet, just like any other card transaction.

Are there any fees for using Google Pay or Apple Pay?

Neither Google Pay nor Apple Pay charges fees for making purchases. You'll pay the same price whether you use mobile payment or enter your card details manually – mobile payment simply makes the process faster and more secure.

Can I use buy now, pay later for any business class flight?

Affirm's availability depends on the specific airline or booking platform you are using. Look for Affirm as a payment option during the checkout process. Not all airlines or travel sites may partner with Affirm.

Is there interest when paying for flights with Affirm?

Interest rates can vary depending on the travel provider and your creditworthiness. However, Affirm is transparent about this. You'll always see the full terms of the loan, including any interest charges, before you finalize your booking. Some promotional offers might even include 0% APR financing.

Will using Affirm affect my credit score when booking flights?

Checking your eligibility for Affirm won't impact your credit score. If you proceed with a payment plan, Affirm may report your loan and payment history to credit bureaus, which could positively or negatively affect your score over time depending on your repayment behavior.

What happens if my flight gets canceled or I need to change it?

If your business class flight is canceled or you need to make changes, you'll typically work directly with the airline or booking platform according to their policies. Any refunds or adjustments will then be processed, and Affirm will adjust your loan balance accordingly.

Are there any fees associated with using Affirm for flights?

Affirm is committed to transparency, so they don't charge extra fees. You'll see the interest (if any) clearly outlined in your payment plan. However, it's always a good idea to review the specific terms provided by Affirm during the checkout process.

Is Pay by Bank available for all customers?

Currently, Pay by Bank is only available for customers with UK bank accounts and when paying in GBP currency. If you don't see this option at checkout, your selected currency may not be GBP, or your bank may not yet support Open Banking.

Why should I use Pay by Bank?

Pay by Bank offers enhanced security as payments are authorized directly through your banking app using your bank's security measures. It also provides instant confirmation of your booking and eliminates the need to enter card details online.

Who processes my Pay by Bank payment?

What is the baggage allowance for business class flights?

What day is the cheapest to fly business class?

Generally, mid-week flights (Tuesdays and Wednesdays) tend to offer the best deals for business class, as demand is lower. However, pricing can fluctuate depending on the route, season, and airline. Contact our agents for help in finding the most cost-effective travel dates.

Do business class seats get cheaper closer to departure?

Business class fares usually don’t decrease as departure dates approach; in fact, they tend to increase due to limited availability. Booking early is often the best strategy, but last-minute deals may occasionally be available. Our travel experts can assist with finding the best pricing.

Yes, we offer one-way tickets in business and first class to various global destinations. Our agents can assist you in finding the best pricing and available options for one-way flights.

Is there a difference between business and first class?

Yes, first class typically offers more exclusive and luxurious amenities than business class, including larger suites, higher levels of privacy, and better meal and service options. Business class, however, still provides an elevated level of comfort compared to economy. Note that on domestic U.S. flights, "First Class" is typically similar to international business class in terms of service and comfort.

Do you offer private jet bookings?

While we specialize in discounted first and business class flights, we do not currently offer private jet bookings. However, we can assist in arranging flights on high-end commercial services.

Are meals included on business class flights?
