Why do prices vary for the same flights at different times?
One of the factors that influences the price of our flights is demand by route and schedule. So, two flights between the same points may have different prices because one is on a schedule that has greater demand.
I've selected a fare and the return flights have red flags on them. What does this mean?
It means that the selected rate for the outward flight can only be combined with specific rates for the return flight. These rates are indiated with a red flag.
