Most people report that they get their confirmation email within **minutes** of booking.

**Items That Might Possibly Delay a Confirms**
Even though instant confirm is the aim, ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’an occasional delay is caused by one or two items:
* **Availability Checks:** ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’In occasional bookings, specifically hotels or customized tours that may not be in all locations, Expediaโ€™s ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’system would take a brief additional time to confirm with the provider.
* **System Updates:** Like any web site, Expedia occasionally will be undergoing system updates, ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’ which will temporarily slow the confirmation process.
* **International Properties:** Confirmations at certain international properties will take a bit l ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’onger due to time zone differences and communication processes.
* **Complicated Itineraries:** ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’If youโ€™ve booked a very complicated itinerary with numerous flights, hotels, and activities, the system might take a bit longer to process all of this. ๏ผ‹๏ผ‘โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ˜๏ผ”๏ผ”โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ–๏ผ“๏ผ–โ†ฃโ†ฃ๏ผ—๏ผ”๏ผ๏ผ’
