Sources you can inspect. Limits you can see.
Start with the source
We collect airline contracts, service plans and government provisions from their official publishers. A check date means we retrieved the source then; it is not a legal effective date or proof that the policy applied to an earlier trip. Older versions and access gaps are retained separately.
Policy guidance and eligibility
Our short guidance summarizes what a publisher says and what to do next. An eligibility decision additionally requires an applicable rule, sufficient facts and evidence, and review of exceptions. Collected material enters research staging first. Qualified approval is required before a rule can produce a definitive calculation.
Amounts and currencies
A matching approved rule can show an amount with a clear conditional disclaimer. Missing facts do not justify guessing. A maximum liability limit is not an automatic payout; vouchers, points, cash and actual expenses are different remedies. We retain the remedy’s currency and the original currency of reported payments rather than choosing a currency from the traveler’s location.
When sources disagree
We retain both references and flag the conflict. A company policy cannot be assumed to remove mandatory legal rights. If the sources or facts do not support a clear conclusion, we request clarification or identify further research instead of promising a recovery.
Current coverage and limits
32 airline guide pages are published. The checker also keeps informational source notes for 46 airlines across 12 incident labels. 22 of those notes record that no separate policy was found in the checked sources. None of these notes is an eligibility decision.
Published cruise policy guidance is available for 25 cruise lines and 15 issues. It summarizes checked contract language. It is not a legal decision or a calculated payout.
Not available in this checker: Hotels, Vacation rentals, Rental cars, Trains, Buses, Booking platforms, Travel insurance assessments, Tours and activities, Private aviation. No eligibility result is offered for those categories.
A definitive amount can appear only when an approved active rule matches the facts you enter. Published policy text alone does not create that result.
This does not cover every itinerary, operating company, historical policy or exception. This check matches the details you enter to published policy notes and official sources. It is not a legal decision or an active eligibility engine, and it does not guarantee a payment. CoinTravel does not choose your airline, arrival airport, or travel date. Software checks do not substitute for qualified legal approval.
