Not sure when the ESTA expires for my parents

[jons_wifey 22]

My parents came over last Christmas 2010, I *THINK* their ESTA was applied and approved Sept 2010 (my brother applied for them). But how can I be sure that their ESTA will expire Sept 2012 as I know ESTA is valid for 2 years.

My brother booked their tickets to come over in July (when I give birth). But there were no fields to enter in their ESTA authorization numbers which I have, where is the information inputted? Or will the check in desk people have that information on their system when they scan their passports when checking in at the airport?

they are british citizens with british passports.

Usually the airline sends out an email a couple weeks before the trip if they are missing some info. Did you check their reservation online? no field to input the ESTA number?

If there is no field indeed, just be sure that they have their ESTA number with them when they travel, I believe that they ask for it at POE.

FYI, it is indeed valid for 2 years. I received an email a couple days ago letting me know that the ESTA I applied for in June 2009 is expiring soon (which I do not care as I have a green card now).

you can log into the ESTA website and check the expiration date. In any event, the DHS will send them an email 90 days before their ESTA expires, reminding them to renew it.

What newlyweds2010 said. Also, their ESTA information is linked up with their passport numbers.

oh yeah right, if they renew their passport they will also have to apply to a new ESTA.
