# Travel advertising — Airtime Media Page: https://myairtime.net/industries/travel Sources reviewed: 2026-10-17 Travel campaigns should name a real destination, package or booking service and send calls to agents who can explain availability and conditions. Airfare disclosures and seller-of-travel requirements depend on the offer and states served—not just the station carrying the commercial. ## Jurisdiction United States airfare rules; state seller-of-travel requirements vary. ## Local rules DOT requires advertised airfare to show the total price, including mandatory taxes and fees. This covers airlines and ticket agents displaying fares. California example: sellers of travel must register with the Attorney General and display their registration number in advertising; registration is not state approval. Confirm requirements in every applicable state before airing. ## Timing Use your actual inventory, travel dates, blackout dates and staffed booking hours. The State Department identifies October through December as its slower passport-application season; that is passport guidance, not a universal travel booking deadline. Check current passport processing times before making travel-readiness claims. Airtime Media has run direct-response campaigns since 1984. Today's channel mix includes radio, broadcast and cable TV, OTT / streaming TV and social media. Calls ring directly to the client's chosen line; the client's own web leads are shared in real time, never resold. Tested commercials means previously aired creative, not guaranteed results. Pricing is set during the discovery call. General campaign-planning information, not legal, medical, tax or investment advice. State examples do not apply nationwide. Confirm current requirements and offer-specific deadlines with your compliance team before airing. ## Sources - DOT — Buying a ticket and airfare advertising: https://www.transportation.gov/individuals/aviation-consumer-protection/buying-ticket - California Attorney General — Seller of Travel: https://oag.ca.gov/travel - State Department — Passport processing times: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/processing-times.html
