Air China

When you check in for a flight with Air China (International) do you have to provide the credit card you booked the flight with?

Thanks

    I guess it depends if a credit card is deemed a "travel document" .... however you could always ask them.

    Thanks for that.

    I was just browsing the site last night and i saw something which suggested i needed the credit card - which i have since canceled.

    Im going to give them a call either way but will post back here and advise.

    The answer is yes.

    Apparently all flights departing Russia require the card used to book to be presented at check in.

    Very nice of Air China to advise me of this when i booked it.
