Whether you are a contributor, guest writer, or part of our internal team, following these principles ensures that our content remains trustworthy, engaging, and useful to our audience.

1. Our Mission

BookFlight.in aims to inform, inspire, and support travelers through well-researched travel tips, airline insights, destination guides, and flight booking advice. We help readers make smarter travel decisions by offering accurate, practical, and unbiased information.

2. Content Principles

All content published on BookFlight.in must adhere to the following principles:

  • Accuracy: Facts must be verified and sources credible. All statistics, data, and claims must be attributed or linked to reliable sources.
  • Originality: We only publish original content. Plagiarism or content copied from other sites will be rejected or removed.
  • Relevance: Topics must be related to travel, flight booking, airline tips, or other areas within the blog’s focus.
  • Clarity: Articles must be well-written, easy to understand, and structured with clear headings and subheadings.
  • Neutrality: Content should avoid bias. If affiliate links or sponsorships are included, they must be transparently disclosed.

3. Editorial Process

Our editorial process involves several stages to ensure quality:

a. Pitch or Topic Selection
 Writers may propose a topic or be assigned one. All ideas must align with our content categories and reader interests.

b. Research and Writing
 Writers are expected to conduct thorough research and provide accurate, cited information. Where applicable, include:

  • Links to official airline websites
  • Data from travel authorities or reputable platforms
  • First-hand experience or practical tips

c. Review and Editing
 Every article is reviewed by an editor for:

  • Factual accuracy
  • Grammar and spelling
  • Readability and formatting
  • SEO best practices

d. Final Approval
 Once approved, the article is published and may be promoted through our social media or email channels. We reserve the right to edit content for clarity, tone, and structure before and after publication.

4. Guest Post Guidelines

We welcome guest contributors who are passionate about travel and eager to share valuable insights. Guest posts must meet the same editorial standards as internal content.

Guest Post Requirements:

  • Style: Informative, engaging, and reader-focused
  • No promotional or spammy content
  • Limit of 1–2 relevant, non-promotional links in the bio
  • A short author bio (2–3 sentences) with a headshot (optional)

Guest contributors must agree that their submissions may be edited and that the final version is at the discretion of our editorial team.

5. SEO and Readability

To ensure our content is both discoverable and enjoyable to read, we follow basic SEO and readability practices:

  • Use relevant keywords naturally
  • Include proper meta titles and descriptions
  • Structure content with H2 and H3 headings
  • Use bullet points, lists, and short paragraphs
  • Include internal links to other relevant BookFlight.in posts

We avoid keyword stuffing, misleading clickbait headlines, and thin content.

6. Affiliate and Sponsored Content Policy

Transparency is important to us. If content includes affiliate links or sponsorship, it must follow these rules:

  • Clearly disclose affiliate relationships at the top or bottom of the post
  • Only link to products or services relevant to the topic
  • Sponsored posts must be labeled as such
  • All opinions must be honest, even in sponsored content

We only promote services we trust and believe will benefit our readers.

  • Use of royalty-free, properly licensed, or original images
  • Attribution where required (e.g., Creative Commons)
  • No offensive, misleading, or overly promotional images
  • High-resolution images preferred (minimum width: 1200px for cover images)

Contributors are responsible for ensuring they have the right to use any images they submit.

8. Corrections and Updates

We are committed to maintaining the accuracy and freshness of our content.

  • Errors reported by readers or discovered internally will be corrected promptly.
  • Outdated articles may be updated, merged, or removed.
  • Significant changes will be noted at the bottom of the article as an update.

We encourage readers to contact us if they spot mistakes or broken links.
