How do I get a price match?

 We do not offer price matching but we do offer a best travel price guarantee if you are unable to find the same or lower price for your clients through options that are commissionable to you and InteleTravel. For complete details of this guarantee, please see the Guarantees page of our website. For your client’s travel request, we recommend comparing fares through our website’s booking engine, and [try to find at least 1-2 suppliers that you can recommend to the agent for their specific destination/trip request. VAX is typically a good suggestion for most requests].

 If you are unable to find the same or lower price for your clients through options that are commissionable to you and InteleTravel, you can submit a claim for our Best Travel Price Guarantee. To do this, you will first need to book your clients through one of the rates available through InteleTravel, then collect the following information and email it to customerservice@inteletravel.com by the following deadlines:

  • For hotels, 48 hours prior to your 12:00AM ET of your check-in date or other cancellation penalty date.
  • For flights, until 5:00 PM ET on the day after you reserved your flight(s) with InteleTravel.
  • For car rentals, until your scheduled pick-up time/date.
  • For cruises and vacation packages or tours, within 7 days of reservation with InteleTravel and at least 48 hours prior to final payment being due or 48 hours prior to any cancellation penalty period.

  • Our InteleTravel.com Confirmation Number or Booking ID.
  • The address of the website or publication where you found the better rate.
  • The details of the travel – name and address of the hotel, cruise line and ship, city and country, etc.
  • Please be sure to include screenshots of the competitor's offer that show the full details and policies of the offer or we will not be able to validate your claim and issue the credit for your clients. Screenshots should show the competitor site or advertisement in which the availability dates, search date, room type/cabin class/car category/class of air service, promotion type and rate/fare for the required dates of the travel are clearly indicated.

Before booking and submitting your claim, we recommend reviewing the competitor offer that you are comparing based on the below guidelines to ensure that your comparison is a valid “apples to apples” comparison/claim.
