Strange Online Reservation Data Field... HELP

Posted by (Portland, OR, USA) on

So, I've been traveling internationally since I was 16. Have booked online since "CheapTickets" was actually cheap. But I've never run across this. Am booking an inter-Europe flight and one of the data fields, right after the address is "Number". I've tried my house number, I've tried, 0 and 1, I've tried last 4 of my phone...
The error message reads:
"You have to specify at least a number between phone and mobile."

Which is about as helpful as having my three year old nephew explain it to me.... Any Help!?!?

Sure sounds to me like they're asking for your phone number. Not the last 4 digits, the entire number. Have you tried that?

tried it. tried even putting the whole number in, but it only has 5 spots. the most bizarre thing I have ever seen... do I have some secret gov't issued number that I am just now finding out about??

How about bypassing cheap tickets and go directly to the airline's website?

I tried doing a dummy booking and never got to anything that just said number.

already tried zip code! (i think) i'll go back and check. and, yes, since it's with cityjet all i was saving was their ridiculous 8.50 to use a charge card (that's above their 16CHF charge in order to process online) and their 16.50 to check a bag. 25CHF quickly becomes just about 70...

that number box will haunt me.
