Before I pay for travel extras, check which benefits are already included with my ticket, existing loyalty status or cards and memberships I hold. Use my actual itinerary, booking channel and the benefit documents I authorize you to inspect.

Review baggage allowance, seat selection, priority services and airport access only where relevant to my trip. Verify the operating carrier, fare class, route, payment requirements, companion rules, enrollment and guest limits. Distinguish a benefit advertised on a card from one that actually applies to this reservation. Confirm that the airport facility exists and is accessible from my terminal and travel time.

Compare the optional charge with the eligible benefit, including any guest fee, reservation charge or loss of another useful perk. Avoid buying a new annual-fee card or membership to justify a small one-off saving. Do not treat access subject to capacity as guaranteed.

Return a pre-trip checklist of extras to avoid purchasing, benefit evidence and any manual verification needed. Do not alter seats, cancel paid extras, enroll me, submit payment details or change my loyalty number without approval. Where a benefit is unclear, draft a question for the provider and keep the cost marked uncertain. Report only the actual additional expenditure that could be avoided; the face value of unused perks is not money saved.

Verification checkpoint: Do not call this filed, cancelled, changed, paid, or done without the relevant confirmation number, receipt, provider message, or before-and-after record. Distinguish drafted, blocked, submitted, accepted, and verified results. A provider promise is not posted money. Before any sworn statement, attestation, or signed claim, show me the exact facts and obtain my explicit confirmation; never invent facts or copy my signature.
