Affiliate Disclosure
SkyIndoFly (skyindofly.com) participates in affiliate marketing programs. Many outbound links on this site — particularly toward flight search engines, travel insurance, OTAs, and remittance partners — are affiliate links. When a reader clicks one and completes a qualified booking, the partner pays SkyIndoFly a commission. The reader pays no additional cost compared with going to the partner directly.
Details
- Our affiliate program is operated via Travelpayouts / Aviasales with marker
537469, with cluster sub-IDs (umroh,pmi,diaspora,bali) so we can measure which audience cluster a click came from. - Commission varies per completed booking and is paid by the partner to SkyIndoFly.
- Readers do not pay more than they would by going directly to Aviasales, Hotellook, or any other partner.
- We do not accept airline sponsorship, do not publish paid rankings, and do not accept paid placement from travel agencies.
AirHelp partnership (added 2026-05-14)
As of May 2026, SkyIndoFly also recommends AirHelp,
a flight-compensation service that files claims on passengers' behalf under EU261 (EU
carriers + EU departures like CGK→AMS on KLM), UK261, Saudi GACA (for Saudia, Flynas),
and similar regulations. When a reader clicks an AirHelp link on this site and successfully
receives compensation through AirHelp's claim service, AirHelp pays SkyIndoFly a referral
commission. AirHelp's own fee (25–35% of awarded compensation) is unchanged whether you
come via SkyIndoFly or go to AirHelp directly. We do not pay AirHelp; AirHelp pays us only
on successful claims. This program runs through Travelpayouts marker 537469
campaign 120, with sub-IDs (indonesia, indonesia-umroh,
indonesia-pmi, indonesia-diaspora, indonesia-bali)
for audience-cluster attribution.
What this means in practice
- Affiliate commission funds editorial research, fact-checking, image production, and the site itself — keeping every article free to read.
- Commercial relationships do not — and will not — alter editorial conclusions. We compare airlines and routes on objective criteria (fare, baggage, frequency, alliance/loyalty earn, audience-cluster relevance — Umrah/Hajj pilgrim, PMI Saudi/HK/TW/KR/MY, Indonesian diaspora NL/MY/SG/HK, Bali backpacker outbound), and name the airline or OTA that wins each criterion even when it pays a lower commission.
- When a recommendation can genuinely benefit from a specific booking partner (better IDR-SAR spread for Umrah, Hajj-charter baggage policy, PMI-specific cancellation terms), we label the partner inline.
- We cite Indonesian authorities by name: Ministry of Transportation, Ministry of Religious Affairs (Bimas Islam — Hajj & Umrah), BP2MI (Indonesian Migrant Worker Protection Agency), and Imigrasi (Immigration). Reader trust outranks affiliate margin.
How /go/ links work
Every outbound affiliate link is formatted as /go/[slug]. The SkyIndoFly
server logs the click (timestamp, source article slug) for editorial analytics — we
do not track personal identity — and then executes an HTTP 302 redirect to the partner
with parameter marker=537469.{cluster}.{segment}. From
that point, the booking flow is between the reader and the partner. We do not see
booking details, credit card, passport, or reader identity. /go/ is
Disallow-ed in our robots.txt.
Important information
- SkyIndoFly does not sell tickets directly — we are an editorial site.
- We do not accept compensation for negative reviews of competitors or positive reviews of partners.
- Every fare range — quoted in IDR with USD/SAR context where useful — is a reference bracket as of publication or last-updated date. Verify with the airline or OTA at booking time.
- For YMYL topics (visa rules, baggage, Hajj quota), we apply a two-source rule. See our Editorial Policy.
Compliance
Aligned with US FTC 16 CFR Part 255 guidelines on material connections in affiliate marketing, and consistent with Indonesia's Consumer Protection Law (UU No. 8/1999). We disclose material commercial connections at the page level via this document, at the link level when a specific recommendation runs through an affiliate program, and in author bylines when an editor has a personal interest in a product or partner.
