Is it a bad idea to book flights with a debit card?

[spacedonkey]

Or should I do it with a credit card?

Sorry for dim question

no why u asking?

credit card offers you better insurance i think?

that's what I was wondering - the insurance thing

Don't think it matters? I've done both, I'm sure...

oic jampot never thought of that

thanks all

Do it all the time - never had a problem.

I paid for my honeymoon with a credit card - the company went bust a week before my wedding!!!!!!!! & though they were ABTA bonded ABTA take 6 months at least to give you the money back.

We fortunately had some extremely kind parents of a friend who lent us the money to book another honeymoon & when we got back the credit card company had refunded the money.

So despite the credit card charges you incur that's the benefit of paying by credit card.

Credit card all hte way!
