Step 1: Start a flight booking

Click the Flights tab in the dashboard.
Enter the flight details – destination, type of flight, departure, and return date. It's also possible to book for someone else

Note: If you book a round-trip or one-way flight for yourself, you’ll automatically be taken to step 3 (skipping step 2)

Step 1a: Who’s traveling?

On the dashboard, select Book flights.
Search for and select the traveler, then click Apply to confirm. To book for a guest, start typing their name and you’ll see the option to add a guest traveler. A guest traveler is someone who doesn’t have a profile in your business account and you’d like to make a reservation for.
To remove the traveler, select the traveler’s icon.

Currently, you can select only one traveler per booking process.

Note: Flight bookings are only available in select countries. If you can’t find the flight option, it means the flight feature is currently unavailable for the country selected in your account. To determine the countries you can book a flight from, we recommend checking this list of supported countries.

Step 2: Set up the itinerary

Select the departure city/airport, date, and time.
Select Going home? if you’re returning to the same location you departed from.
If you’re going to a different destination, fill out the ... or somewhere else? section
If additional flights are required, click the + icon and select the flight option

To finish setting up your itinerary, click Continue to itinerary.

Step 3: Select your flight
