Hello,
I was trying to book a flight from Beijing to Xian with Elong, but I%26#39;m having a blocking problem.
Elong%26#39;s booking page is asking me for a mobile number, which I%26#39;ve tried to enter several times in several formats... but all the time it tells me that the format is incorrect...
I%26#39;m using my italian mobile number, with or without international code (Italy is 0039)... if I use international code the input field does not even have enough space for all the numbers...
Anyone out there having the same problem ?
Thanks
Elong and international mobile numbersThey are a pain aren%26#39;t they. Will you require you to fax creditcard and passport details as well?
There are other companies - www.travelzen.com and www.ctripcom - the price is the same. If one causes trouble, try another.
Travelzen doesn%26#39;t charge a surcharge for international credit cards either.

The other company is www.ctrip.com
Use it or www.travelzen.com instead
try the other companies or make up a number
I have used elong before, and I have given then a Hong Kong number and they have phoned me up soon after booking with a question. Therefore, while they can contact you by email, I%26#39;d hesitate in making up a number - that said I just tried to make a booking and it wouldn%26#39;t accept any of the telephone numbers I tried to enter!
At the moment I just use elong to check prices - I find their display more user friendly. Then I book with travelzen.
