At check-in, can I present a credit card that is different from the one I used when I did the Internet booking?
At check-in, we require our customers to show the same credit card they used during Internet booking. This is done in the interest of financial security for both the customer and the airline. |

What should I do if I (the credit card holder) am unable to be physically present at the airport or town office to verify the LOI and my credit card for my third party bookings?
If you (the credit card holder) are not able to be physically present to sign the LOI or perform credit card verification at the airport or town office, the traveller will be asked to purchase a new set of SilkAir tickets on similar travel itinerary during check-in.
"SilkAir reserves the right to deny the ticket holder(s) from boarding if the above verification process is not carried out properly unless a new set of tickets is purchased."

Why am I required to sign a Letter of Indemnity (L.O.I.)?
The Letter of Indemnity is a necessary check to prevent misuse of your payment card from an unauthorized user, and to safeguard your interests. It is a document that formalises your acknowledgement of the travellers under your booking. The letter will prevent any abuse of your credit card, as it requires you as the owner of the payment card to be present to authenticate the transaction at the city ticket office or the airport. |

What is a virtual or single-use credit card?
It is a single-use credit card number. It's also called a virtual number. This is a temporary number (assigned to your account) that's good for a limited number of purchases - maybe one or a few more - and after that, it's invalid. Thus, if that number gets into a thief's hands, it won't do him any good. |

Why can’t I book the ticket with a virtual or single-use credit card?
The credit card used for this purchase will need to be presented upon check-in. Hence, virtual or single-use credit card will not be allowed. |
