    No UK train website accepts VISA Electron. I guess same goes for airticket booking websites. Atleast ebookers does not.

    However, National Express Bus service website does accept VISA Electron.

    a lot of airticket websites do accept it.

    Easyjet
    Bmibaby
    Aerlingus
    Hlx
    Thomsonfly

    In fact on some of these there is a charge for using a visa debit card but not an visa electron card.
