Booking Process for Expedia Activities

  1. The customer selects and purchases your product on Expedia or one of our global distribution channels. All bookings are instantly confirmed once the customer proceeds with the transaction.
  2. Once payment is processed, the customer receives an email confirmation and online voucher.
  3. If the booking is made within the 72-hour booking window, you will receive an Instant Notification containing details of the product booked and the customer who booked. If the booking is made outside of the 72-hour booking window, you will receive a Daily Notification containing the same product and customer details.
  4. The customer completes your product and has a fantastic time!
