What is a combo package?

Combo packages, (also called Vacations, Custom Trips or Travel Deals), provide access to special rates only available when booking a flight and hotel at the same time--and that's just the beginning. You've still got the same flights to choose from, along with thousands of top hotels at discounted rates.

Combo package search results reveal the best trips available.

Try a combo package today. It's quick, it's convenient and best of all, it will save you money.

If a combo package transfer is shown as 'round trip,' can it be divided in half to get the price for a one-way transfer?

No. If a rate is published as "round trip," it must be purchased as "round trip".

Do I need to reconfirm my flight before departure?

For domestic travel it is not required the airline to reconfirm your flight. Some international (non-U.S.) airlines do require passengers to call and reconfirm flights. This must be done directly with the airline 24 - 72 hours prior to departure.

Children and Infants

Are the combo package Additional Services pricing different for adults and children?

All passengers requiring Travel Extras will be priced as adults at this time.

How do I add my infant (lap child) to a combo package booking?

If you're traveling with an infant/lap child (no seat required), make the combo package booking for all passengers excluding the infant. Once completed, you will need to contact one of our customer care agents so that we can make a notation in your travel record that you are traveling with a lap child. You may e-mail us this information.

Please be sure to include the child's name and age (e.g. "Jane Doe will be 13-months old at time of travel"). To send an e-mail, click here.

Are infants charged for ground transfers in combo package bookings?

If infants are charged, it will be clearly identified within the combo package Additional Services option by identifying an age range. Generally, children under the age of 3 are not charged for ground transportation services.
