This page explains how taxes, fees, and surcharges factor into the fares we quote — so there are no surprises. When we quote you a price, it is the all-in price for the itinerary described.
When your specialist quotes a fare, that figure is the all-in price for the itinerary described — base fare plus applicable taxes, government charges, and carrier surcharges. We confirm the total before you pay, so you always know the full cost up front.
Prices are per person and quoted in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise. The final price can vary by departure city, airline, route, travel class, and date.
| Charge | What it is | Set by |
|---|---|---|
| Base fare | The core price of the seat | Airline |
| Government taxes | Departure, arrival & transit taxes | Governments |
| Airport charges | Passenger & facility fees | Airports |
| Carrier surcharges | Airline-imposed fees | Airline |
| Service fee | Booking, ticketing & 24/7 support | BusinessClassASAP |
Illustrative: these categories show what makes up a fare. Exact amounts depend on your itinerary and are shown in your quote.
Some items are typically not included in the fare and may be purchased separately, subject to airline policy:
Where we mention savings — for example “up to 60% off” — this is measured against standard, unrestricted published business- or first-class fares offered by major airlines. Actual savings vary by fare rules, route, dates, and availability, and some airlines may charge separately for items such as checked baggage.
Fares depend on seat availability in specific booking classes, and availability is limited — seats may not be offered on all flights or dates. Prices and terms can change until a booking is fully paid and ticketed. Your specialist always confirms the final total before payment.
