We explain the rules behind travel so you know what you’re entitled to and what to prepare before you leave. These are the principles we work by.
- Accuracy first. Before anything is published, its specific facts, figures and rules are checked against official and primary sources, mainly the U.S. Department of Transportation, the Transportation Security Administration, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the State Department, the Justice Department’s ADA guidance and the CDC.
- Honesty about method. Our articles are researched and drafted with AI tools and checked automatically against their sources. Drafts that fail the check aren’t published, and articles aren’t individually reviewed by a person before they go live. Our guides are based on research, not hands-on testing, unless an article says otherwise.
- Independence. No company pays for coverage or influences what we write. Some links earn us a commission through the Travelpayouts affiliate network, but commissions don’t decide what we cover or recommend. Our disclosure explains how the site is funded.
- Clarity. We explain things in plain language and avoid jargon where we can.
- Staying current. We correct guides when we learn the rules have changed, and we point readers to official sources for details that change often.
- Prompt corrections. Report errors to support [at] travelhotelsinfo [dot] com. We review every report and fix confirmed mistakes quickly.
