Fraud
FRAUD: Reposting from Heidi Fink "Not stolen, but kinda...delete if not allowed This weekend I flew from Oahu to Kauai for work. The project manager I went to work with bought the plane ticket for me on Hawaiian, but I was unable to check in online or at the airport kiosk, so I asked the lady at the kiosk for help. She said she would need to see the credit card that was used to purchase the ticket in person and kept mentioning fraud. The project manager was not there, so the credit card wasn't there. She said the only solution for me was to buy a whole new ticket (so Hawaiian kinda stole this already booked ticket? They wouldn't refund it either unless we file a complaint and the new tickets were more expensive). We talked to reservations on the phone later to see if I could still use the return flight and they were also no help. Isn't it somewhat common for people to buy a plane ticket for someone else and not be there in person? Has anyone else had this issue? He said he always did this and hadn't had an issue before. Editing to add: I had the right confirmation code, my info came up at the kiosk and online, but it had an error come up when I hit continue at one point and wouldn't let me continue the check in process. I tried several times and then went to talk to a human. Sounds like it may be a newer policy, so beware. Edit 2: sounds like if it's a purchase for another person for a flight soon after the purchase (within a week?), it might get flagged for them to check for fraud prevention."
