Answers to popular questions about AsiaRoutes.
Is this a travel agency? Do you sell tickets and hotels?
No. We are an independent planner and aggregator: we help you plan an independent trip and compare prices. Booking and payment happen on partner sites (Aviasales, Trip.com, Booking, Agoda and others) via the “Go” button.
How much does it cost to use the site?
It is free. We may receive an affiliate commission when you follow links and make purchases with partners — this does not affect the price for you.
Do Russian bank cards work abroad?
As a rule, no: Visa/Mastercard/Mir cards issued in Russia are not accepted abroad. For details on cash, exchange and local payment methods, see the articles for each country (the “Money” section).
What is the AI route generator?
A tool that builds a personal day-by-day route from your parameters (country, dates, budget, interests) and emails you a ready PDF.
How do I publish my own route or article?
Sign up for an account, create a route on the map (right-click → a day or a point of interest), add photos from your device and publish. Details are in the Guide.
How up to date are the prices and visa rules?
We strive for accuracy, but prices, schedules and visa requirements change. Always check the key details with official sources and partners before you travel.
Where do the photos on the site come from?
Some of the illustrations come from Wikimedia Commons under their authors’ free licenses; photos in user routes are uploaded by their authors. Learn more on the For rights holders page.
How do I delete my account and data?
