Hello Tim,

Thanks for sharing this review, I'm sorry you've encountered this problem when trying to complete a booking with a provider found through our website.

Skyscanner is a tool that helps you organise your trip by finding the best options for you. When you select a journey, your reservation is made directly with the airline or travel agent of your choice. Once you are on the provider’s website, you’ll be able to see all the different payment options they offer, and the payment will be handled solely by them on their own platform, so I'm afraid we have no visibility over this.

I hope this offers some clarification.

Kind regards,

Stephanie
