Don’t Book Your Umrah
Package Blindly! ⚠️

Performing Umrah is a sacred journey, not just a trip. Read this first to ensure your journey is safe, authorised, and peaceful.

10 Critical Things to Check

A comprehensive masterclass to avoid getting cheated

1. Verify the IATA Certificate 📜

Always begin by checking if the company is IATA certified. If not, it’s not a proper travel company – just an agent pretending to be an Umrah consultant. Such agents usually have no authorised system for booking flights, visas, or hotels. They might send you for Umrah through unreliable or unauthorised channels, which can cause serious problems at immigration or even in Saudi Arabia. A genuine IATA number is easy to verify on the official IATA Number Checker website.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: This ensures the travel company is officially approved to book your Umrah flights and visas. Last week, one family booked through an unverified WhatsApp agent. Their visas turned out fake at airport. They spent double money for urgent Umrah visas. Always verify before paying.

The Aimah Way

When you book through a certified company like UmrahPackageFromDelhi.com, you travel with peace of mind knowing every step like visa, flight, hotel, and ziyarah is officially arranged.

2. Check Their Online Presence 🌐

A real company will always have a working website with online booking options, detailed itineraries, and clear terms and conditions. Go through their website and read their terms, privacy, and payment policies carefully. If they only deal through WhatsApp or PDFs and have no online presence, it’s a red flag — such people can easily disappear after taking payment. Also, check if they have a verified Google Business Profile, genuine reviews, and active social media accounts showing real pilgrims.

💬 Example: Fake agents usually send only PDFs or WhatsApp messages with no proper office address or website. Once they get payment, they disappear.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: A verified online presence shows the company is transparent and accountable.

The Aimah Way

At UmrahPackageFromDelhi.com, you can verify everything on our website, Google, and social media, including real photos, videos, and reviews from real pilgrims.

3. Verify Airline and Ticket Details ✈️

Once you receive your flight ticket, check the PNR directly on the airline’s official website or call the airline to confirm it. Never rely on screenshots or 'draft tickets' shared on WhatsApp. Some fake agents issue dummy tickets to cheat customers, and you realise it only at the airport. Always confirm your booking status yourself.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Many frauds happen with fake or dummy flight tickets.

The Aimah Way

All our tickets are genuine and traceable. You can verify your PNR anytime on the airline’s official site.

4. Confirm Hotel Names – Not Just Distance 🏨

When someone says '5 minutes from Masjid,' always ask which Masjid. Some dishonest agents use this trick — they’ll say '5 minutes from Masjid' but it turns out to be a small local mosque, not Masjid al-Haram or Masjid an-Nabawi. Only trust agencies that clearly mention hotel names like Swissotel Makkah or Taiba Front Madinah. Also, make sure the hotels are authorised for Umrah pilgrims — otherwise, the Saudi Ministry may raid the property and ask you to vacate even at midnight.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: '5 minutes from Masjid' can mean anything even a local street mosque in Azizia.

The Aimah Way

We always share exact hotel names, images, and walking distances so you know exactly where you’ll stay.

5. Understand Room Sharing Types 🛏️

Room type affects your comfort and pricing. Know the difference: Single (1 person), Twin (2 beds), Triple (3 beds), Quad (4 beds), or Quint (5 beds). Cheap agents sometimes put 8–10 people in one room to save costs. Always ask for room details in writing, including bed count and hotel category.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Room type decides your comfort and total package cost.

The Aimah Way

We clearly mention room sharing (Twin, Triple, Quad, or Quint) in writing, so there are no hidden surprises.

6. Confirm All Inclusions in Writing ✍️

Get a written confirmation or invoice clearly listing everything included — visa, flights, meals, laundry, ziyarats, transport, guide, Zamzam, etc. Even small things matter — laundry and meals alone can cost thousands if not included. Ask about meal timings, menu type (buffet, fixed, or packed), and transport mode (bus or private car) so you don’t face surprises later.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Verbal promises are hard to track. Written details ensure you get exactly what you paid for.

The Aimah Way

Every booking comes with a digital and physical invoice listing every single service included in your package.

7. Read Genuine Reviews and Talk to Past Pilgrims 🌟

Check Google reviews and YouTube videos from the company’s real customers. If you see familiar faces or testimonials, ask to speak to them directly. A genuine company won’t hesitate to connect you with past pilgrims. Hearing their real experiences will help you understand the company’s service better than any brochure.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Real human experiences reveal the ground truth of the service quality.

The Aimah Way

We are proud of our transparency. We have hundreds of video testimonials and 5-star Google reviews from families across India.

8. Verify the Visa Source 🛂

Always ask where your Umrah visa will be issued from — a direct Saudi-approved channel or through a sub-agent. Sometimes, fake agents make a PDF of a false Umrah visa, and you could face detention at immigration.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: An invalid visa can lead to deportation, fines, or permanent travel bans from Saudi Arabia.

The Aimah Way

We are an authorized Nusuk partner. All our visas are issued directly through official government channels.

9. Check Their Support System 🎧

Ask if they have a WhatsApp group or team support during your travel. If something goes wrong in Saudi Arabia, will someone actually answer your call? A genuine operator will always have a support group and a team ready to help you in real time.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Being in a foreign country without support can be stressful and dangerous in emergencies.

The Aimah Way

We provide 24/7 on-ground assistance with dedicated staff members stationed in both Makkah and Madinah.

💡 Spiritual Pro-Tip

Support during travel isn't just about hotels. Having the right Duas at your fingertips is essential.

10. Look for Transparency and Accountability 🔍

A professional Umrah company never hides details. They show flight numbers, hotel photos, and official documents openly. If someone says, 'Don’t worry, everything will be arranged later,' walk away immediately. Transparency is the foundation of trust — and your Umrah journey should begin with that.

Risks & Dangers

Why this matters: Ambiguity is the biggest tool of scammers. Clarity equals safety.

The Aimah Way

Transparency is our hallmark. We serve, we don't sell. Every detail of your journey is documented before you leave.
