Am I eligible for the discount for Canary Island residents? What documentation do I need?
Following the instructions contained in the National Civil Aviation Security Programme (latest amendments, entering into force on the 1st of January 2010), the valid documents for proof of identity (not applicable for the purposes of proving any type of discount, in which case you must refer to the provisions of the specific regulation), are:
In the event of the Documentation being lost or stolen, the report given to the Security Forces will not be valid proof of identify of the passenger. However, a Security Forces officer may provide proof of the identity of the person, although this proof will only be valid on national flights.
Spanish minors under the age of 14 who are flying within the national territory are not obliged to carry a National ID Document or Passport, as the people under whose charge they are travelling are responsible for these.
Pursuant to Royal Decree (CE) 1316/2001, amended by Royal Decree 1340/2007 of 11 October, in order to make use of the discounted ticket, the passenger must prove their resident status when checking in as well as when boarding, with the following documentation:
N.B: On a provisional basis, the following exceptional circumstances shall be considered, in order to prove the status of resident:
A) Renewal of the National ID Document: the client can prove their identity and Resident status by showing the supporting paperwork to prove that their ID Document is being renewed, within the term of its validity, accompanied by the expired identity document or Passport.
B) Theft or Loss of National ID Document: Report given to the Security Forces, which must be provided together with the Passport or Driving Licence issued in Spain, as documentary proof of identity.
C) Resident's Card and Resident's Permit for citizens of the EU Member States or of a State which has signed the European Economic Area Agreement or Switzerland, whilst this is valid.
What do I need to be eligible for the large family discount? How do I purchase it on the website?
To be eligible for this discount, the ticket holder must be able to prove at the time of purchase their status as a member of a large family by means of the official large family certificate or an equivalent separate document showing the certificate number and category. The status of the holder must be valid up to the date of completion of the journey. The certificate must be shown at the time of boarding, and it is therefore essential that the passenger brings it with them along with their other documentation.
Value of the discount:
To purchase it on bintercanarias you just need to tick the “Passengers in a large family” box, select the type of discount for which you are eligible and complete the information requested in the passenger details.
IMPORTANT: Passengers in possession of discounted tickets who are unable to prove their identity as beneficiaries will be prevented from boarding with these tickets.
Is the price shown for the flight I’ve selected for one passenger only or for everyone?
The price shown when you select the flight you want is the amount for all the passengers for one route only. The taxes will then have to be added to this price. The full price of your tickets will appear broken down in the following step of the purchase: “2. Passenger details”.
Can I purchase tickets for other people with my user name? How?
It is possible to purchase tickets for a passenger other than the registered user. Once you reach the passenger details step, the details of the registered user will appear by default. You must delete these details completely and replace them with the details of the person who will be taking the flight.
Can I purchase tickets for children without an adult?
Yes, although you must take into account that whilst the purchase can be made without an adult, at the time of travel, minors must travel accompanied by at least one adult of legal age.
How many babies can travel with me?
Only one infant is permitted per adult. The maximum number of babies on board is limited according to the type of aircraft and is therefore subject to confirmation. If, once the ticket has been issued, it is not possible to confirm the baby’s booking, our operators will contact you.
For further information, you can call our Telephone Assistance Centre, 902 391 392 or 902 BINTER
Is it possible to make a booking on the website? (without paying or issuing the ticket)
Only the immediate purchase of tickets by credit or debit card is accepted, and it is not therefore possible to make bookings on our website.
How can I pay for my tickets?
You can pay for your tickets with a card from the 4B system, Visa or MasterCard. Payments are made through the bank’s secure webpage.
I can’t make the payment: What does 'Operation denied (xxx)' mean? Why has my card not been accepted? Why does it take me back to the passenger details after I have entered the card details?
The denial of your purchase at the moment of payment is normally due to an error in the format in which the details of the credit or debit card have been entered. Check that in the “Card” field the 16 digits from the front of the card have been entered with no spaces (you do not need to enter the type of card, as this can be identified by the numbering); then select the expiry date in the drop-down menu; finally, enter your card’s security code in the “SecCode” field. The security code is the 3 last digits of the number on the back of your card (where your signature appears).
The “Operation denied (190)” error is a payment denial message from your bank. If you receive this denial code, please consult your bank with regard to the cause. In other cases, you may contact our Telephone Assistance Service on 902 391 392, 902BINTER or by email on operadoresweb@bintercanarias.com.
How do I know whether the purchase has been made correctly?
Once you have purchased your ticket, a final confirmation should appear, informing you that the purchase has been successful and indicating your booking locator. You should also automatically receive an email confirming all the details of the ticket you have bought.
If you have not received this confirmation email, check that your email address is correctly shown in your registration and that our information is not being blocked as undesired mail.

purchase you have just made. You can also contact us at any time on
telephone 902 391 392, 902 BINTER or by email on
operadoresweb@bintercanarias.com
to obtain further information on your booking.
What is an electronic ticket? Do I need to go and collect my ticket?
The tickets you purchase through bintercanarias.com are electronic and you will not therefore need an actual ticket.
The most important advantages of the e-ticket are:
NB: Unlike other airlines, under no circumstances do you need to show the credit or debit card with which you made the payment for the ticket.
After the purchase:

How can I view my booking once completed? And how can I obtain an invoice?
Once you have purchased your ticket, you can view your booking in the “My Binter” section in the “My bookings” area. To issue your invoice, you can also access within the “My Binter” section the “My invoices” area or via the button shown on the final confirmation once you have made the purchase.

changes to your booking directly on bintercanarias.com, provided that your
ticket has not been amended previously through our Telephone Assistance

What documentation must I show at the airport?

This documentation must coincide exactly with that entered by the user when the ticket was purchased. Also, where necessary, they must show the documentation required as proof of residence (certificate of residence or foreigner’s registration certificate) and/or of large family status.
Unlike other companies, under no circumstances do you need to show the credit/debit card with which you purchased the ticket.
Will I earn BinterMás points when I make the purchase?
Your points will be added when the flight takes place. However, if you enter your BinterMás card number at the time of purchase, you will not need to show it again when you check in.
Can the name of the ticket holder be changed once the purchase has been made?
The tickets are personal and non-transferable, and therefore once the ticket has been issued, the holder cannot be changed.

allow, is to ask for a refund of your ticket and have a new ticket issued
under another name.
