Have your fiance send you a photo copy of the credit card, may be a good idea for him to call the airline and talk to them also. For sure have his contact phone number.

Yes, this was an issue for me once when I was traveling on Qatar Airways from Nairobi to Shanghai. It wasn't a big issue but I did have to answer questions about how I came to be booked on the flight via someone else's credit card. For future reference, I do intend to take the advice given above and to have a photocopy just to be on the safe side. Can you pay for someone else's taking with your credit card? Yes. Are there precautions you should take to avoid inconveniences? Absolutely.

I booked my flights online with Delta.com and used my Fiance's card, there were no questions asked at all.

We used Delta too...all I had to do was go to any Delta ticket counter, give flight and confirmation info to the Delta agent, they verified it was not fraud, put it in the computer, we are good to go. I called them a few days later to make sure it was input in their system. Yes, so you need to do this.

With Delta I was required to go to the airport and show my credit card after I bought her tickets. Its quite the pain in the butt, as the airport is a long way from my home, parking is horrendous and expensive and the lines very long. Took about 4 hours to get that done. I sure wish they had a ticketing agent off site that could have handled this. I love how they said its for my protection. If my card was stolen and I failed to report it, the worst I could be out is $50. They guaranteed it cost me $50 in gas and parking, plus the lost time.

Cary...lucky for me I work at the airport..I just walked upstairs. But I can see it being a hassle.

I always had them ask for my credit card for PAL, NW/Delta. But never Singapore, Korean or Cathay Pacific. Good luck!
