December 19, 2024
Quick answers to common questions
Yes and no. On the surface, sometimes group fares appear more expensive that published rates. This is due to the flexible terms on group contracts. But it is more complicated than meets the eye.
Yes. You can change names up until 72 hours prior to departure on group contracts.
Most airlines will only sell 50-60% of the main cabin to groups. Southwest and JetBlue will allow your group to take all the space on the plane. Chartering allows you to buy out the plane but is different than buying group space.
Most airlines offer group contracts, but not all.
Airlines price main cabin seats at the lowest fare class. Once that fare class is exhausted, the next highest fare class will be booked. The final fare is then averaged and a slight discount is applied.
Group contracts allow you to lock in a price for more than 10 people while giving the flexibility to delay payments and cancel if needed.
Your seats get assigned when your group submits final payment and receives their tickets. This usually happens between 30-45 days prior to travel.
In the past, group customers would hold space across multiple airlines with little intention that the group actually materializes. On the airline's side, the booking fee is designed to reduce cancellations.
Yes. During your onboarding call, your account manager will ask about what parameters you wish to enforce. Typically, companies set up a bunch of conditions that require the traveler to seek approval from a manager.
Yes! We offer travelers the ability to upgrade and pay the difference. For example, say the main cabin price is $500, but the traveler wants to upgrade to first class. We can bill the company the main cabin fare and then the traveler the difference.

When traveling on a group contract, we do not have any ticketing fees. When traveling on an individual ticket, we charge a small fee per ticket.

No. While there is more savings and efficiency with larger groups, we often do small trips as well.
