Frequently asked questions
A few things to know.
Before you book, start here.
What is FORTYONE?
FORTYONE is a travel concierge that finds flight options and handles the booking for you. You tell us where you’re going, when, and how you’d like to fly. We’re an independent service—not an airline.
Which airlines and cabins do you book?
We currently focus on domestic American Airlines and Alaska Airlines flights in economy and first class. We’ll show you the cabin for each flight in your itinerary before you approve it, including any connections.
You can’t use your own American Airlines or Alaska Airlines points, miles, or reward balances to credit bookings through FORTYONE.
How much does a flight cost?
Our planned launch fares for eligible domestic trips are: First Class round trip: $500 · First Class one way: $275 · Economy round trip: $300.
Prices are per person and include our booking service. Availability varies, and we’ll confirm your total before you pay. Optional extras, such as bags or paid seats, may cost more.
How do I book?
Choose your route, dates, cabin and number of travelers, then add each traveler’s details. Review your booking and submit payment securely at checkout. From there, our concierge team will secure your seats and email your confirmation as soon as your tickets are issued.
Can I choose a specific flight?
Yes, send us the flight you have in mind. Not every flight is available through our service, so we’ll check it before confirming. If it isn’t available, we’ll offer alternatives for you to approve. Let us know upfront if a nonstop flight or a particular departure time is essential.
Can I book a round trip?
Yes. Your outbound and return flights may be booked as two separate one-way reservations, each with its own confirmation code. We’ll show you both directions and the total price before you approve the trip.
How far in advance should I book?
FORTYONE is best suited to trips coming up soon. If your plans come together closer to departure, our concierge can help find available options and handle the booking.

Are these real airline tickets, and when will I receive confirmation?
Yes. Once your ticket is issued, you’ll receive airline confirmation details that let you look up your reservation directly with the airline.
Submitting a request or receiving a payment receipt does not mean your ticket has been issued. We’ll confirm the expected ticketing timeframe before you pay and let you know when ticketing is complete.
What happens if you can’t find the flight I want?
We’ll let you know and offer any available alternatives. You decide whether a different time, route, or date works for you. We won’t treat an alternative as approved without checking with you first.
Can I change or cancel my booking?
Contact us with your booking details before making a change. We’ll explain the options, any additional cost, and whether a refund or credit is available under your ticket’s terms and applicable requirements. If the airline changes or cancels your flight, reach out so we can help review your options.
