Photo reviews

Photos and experiences shared by contributors. Read below how we check submissions.

How reviews and confirmations work

We ask contributors to share a photo they took and their own experience. Reviews go through automated checks. Flagged reviews can be assessed manually. Approval is not a guarantee that a photo is unedited or free of AI generation.

  • Email address confirmed means the link sent to that address was used. It does not prove a purchase or the identity of a person.
  • Company management confirmed relates to access to this company page. A paid plan does not verify individual reviews.
  • A review invitation does not independently prove a purchase. An order reference supplied by a company is not independent purchase verification either.
  • Publishing a photo with a review does not automatically permit reuse in marketing. A subscription does not grant that permission either.

Target audience
Frequent flyers, elite members, award travelers, business travelers
ExpertFlyer positions itself firmly in the premium segment of travel tools, targeting elite-status airline members, award travelers, and frequent business travelers who need more detailed flight data than standard booking platforms provide. Founded in 2005 and acquired by Red Ventures in 2018, the platform has spent over two decades refining its toolkit around a core philosophy: frequent flyers should have direct access to the information that airlines hold but rarely surface to passengers. The service is particularly focused on American Airlines AAdvantage members seeking Systemwide Upgrade availability, though its alerts, fare class searches, and seat monitoring tools apply across a broad range of airlines. Plans range from a free tier with basic seat alerts to a paid Elite tier built for Concierge Key, Executive Platinum, and Platinum Pro members.
