Customers

Open Yatra → Customers.

This is the list of every customer who has ever booked or registered:

  • Status filters: All / Active / Inactive / Blocked.

If your Settings → Customer has Allow guest checkout on, customers don't need an account before booking. Yatra creates a customer record on first booking. They can later set a password and claim the account by visiting the password-reset link in their booking confirmation email.
