REX AIRLINES* Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

When Rex Airlines processes a ticket payment, their billing system transmits the charge to your bank using the truncated descriptor "REX AIRLINES*" followed by additional transaction details, a format commonly used by airline booking and payment platforms to identify the merchant within the limited character space available on bank statement fields. The asterisk in "REX AIRLINES*" is a standard delimiter used by payment processors to separate the merchant name from supplementary information such as a booking reference or route code. Rex Regional Express, which operates as Rex Airlines across regional and domestic Australian routes, uses this descriptor format consistently across their direct booking and ticketing systems, which is why passengers who purchase flights through the Rex website or app will recognize this charge on their statements.

No, this is a legitimate charge from Rex Airlines. However, if you did not authorize this charge or cancelled your subscription, you may be eligible for a refund.
