Provider standards
Quality gate before recommendation

We do not publish a provider just because it exists.

FlightVerified only intends to send travelers to reservation services that have passed our fulfilment, validity, verification and support checks. Providers still being investigated stay out of the customer-facing recommendation list.

Current recommendation status

No provider has passed the full approval gate yet.

Until testing is complete, FlightVerified will not manufacture a “best provider” recommendation. A provider now needs both an explicit approved status and all six internal evidence gates passed before it can appear publicly or receive outbound traffic.

Requirement first · evidence gate · provider second
Evaluation framework

Six checks before a provider can appear here.

We test the product and fulfilment experience, not merely the marketing claims on a provider website.

01

Reservation authenticity

We distinguish a real reservation record from a PDF-only document generator and document exactly what is issued.

02

Independent verification

Where supported, we test whether the reservation can be checked outside the provider's own website and record airline-specific limitations.

03

Validity window

We measure how long a reservation remains active and whether the expiry timing is clear before a traveler pays.

04

Delivery speed

We test normal and urgent fulfilment because a reservation arriving after a visa appointment or check-in has no practical value.

05

Support and refunds

We test what happens when issuance fails, a traveler needs a correction, or the reservation cannot be verified as expected.

06

Commercial transparency

Affiliate or commercial relationships are disclosed. Commission does not determine whether a provider is approved.

Before choosing a service

First confirm what your route actually requires.

A temporary reservation is useful only when it matches the visa, airline or border requirement for your passport and route.
