Frequently asked questions

Who is typically eligible for defence fares?
Eligibility depends on the airline. Common categories include serving Army, Navy, and Air Force personnel, and sometimes veterans or dependants. Always confirm the airline’s current defence fare rules before travel.
What documents are commonly required?
Airlines often ask for a valid service ID, dependant card, or other defence-issued ID matching the passenger name on the ticket. Exact documents vary by airline and fare type — check the fare rules in search before you pay.
Is a defence fare the same as LTC?
No. Defence fares are airline products. LTC (Leave Travel Concession) is a service / claim process. You may book a suitable ticket on veertrip and still need unit or PAO approval for any LTC claim.
