All passengers are required to submit either an Affidavit of Purpose or a letter (on mission letterhead) stating that your trip is mission related. You must travel with this document and a copy must be submitted to our office in order for your tickets to be processed. The primary airline for your trip will determine your requirement. Your carrier may ask you to furnish your documentation at anytime before or during your trip. World Missions Travel accepts no responsibility for consequences resulting from failure to supply proper missionary or humanitarian identification.
