Yes, you can purchase a ticket for someone else on Yahoo! Travel. During the reservation process, you'll come to the Passenger Information page. Please make sure to use the correct passenger name by choosing the "Change Passenger Name" option. If you don't change the passenger name when making the reservation, we can't change the name on the ticket afterwards.
On the "Billing and Delivery Information" page, please make sure to enter your credit card information and billing address. If you want the tickets sent to another person, uncheck the "same as billing address" box and specify where you want the tickets sent in the "Delivery Address" area.
For your protection, the information is verified with the credit card holder. For verification, please provide a daytime phone number.
