Editorial Standards

How we research, label, date and correct travel information on Diaries of Travels.

01Labels you will see

  • Editorial

    Written and checked by our editors from visits, operator sources and traveler reports.

  • Community note

    Submitted by readers; shown separately and never merged into editorial text without verification.

  • Partner / affiliate

    A commercial link. Labelled every time.

  • API data

    Sourced from a live feed, shown with its timestamp. Not connected in the current prototype — sample data is labelled as such.

02Dates and sources

Every guide carries a last-verified date and a source list. Information that changes often — lounge hours, terminal access, visa rules, airline policies, prices — carries a "may change" alert.

03What we avoid

  • No fake urgency, countdowns or scarcity claims.
  • No guaranteed-savings or "best day to buy" claims.
  • No unverified advice presented as fact.
  • No hard-coded prices, benefits or access rules without an update workflow.

04Corrections

We correct promptly and note the change on the page. Request a correction →
