Your vacation is important to you, and Funjet Vacations recommends the penalty waiver as a “peace of mind” to protect your vacation investment.

How do I book an infant?

According to airline regulations, an “infant” is a child under the age of two. Infants do not require an airline seat and can sit on the lap of an adult traveler while flying (“lap child”). If an infant is traveling with you and you do not purchase a seat for the infant, you must contact the Customer Care Center (1-888-558-6654) or your preferred travel professional to add the infant to your online reservation.

For some international destinations, additional taxes may apply when you include an infant on the reservation. The airline may also issue a ticket for the infant traveler.

I would like my infant to have his/her own seat, how should I book it?

When you search for a vacation package, type the infant’s age in the Ages of Children field in the vacation search tool on the home page. The web site then includes the infant traveler when searching for available travel components.

How do I find the lowest vacation price?

Use the tips in the list below to search for the best vacation price.
      - Check the great specials available in the Hot Deals section. 
      - Plan your vacation as far in advance as possible. 
      - Compare midweek and weekend departure prices.

How do I know what the vacation price includes?

When you search for a vacation package, the availability prices always include the combined hotel and flight prices, feature prices, and all applicable air and hotel taxes and fees. The web site does not add any surprise taxes or fees to the air and hotel vacation prices when you confirm the reservation.

Extra day charges may apply if your return flight is one hour (or more) later then the scheduled drop-off time for your rental car.

How far from my intended travel date can I price a vacation?Normally, you can search for a vacation 330 days prior to departure. There may be some exceptions to this rule. Please try different date options if your vacation search is not successful.
How do I find the amount of taxes and fees that are included in my vacation's search price?You may use the link at the bottom of the Package Summary screen to view a detailed breakdown of the amount of taxes/fees related to your vacation.
When I checked the vacation price yesterday it was lower than it is today. Why?

When you price Funjet Vacations packages, you view live inventory. Because prices are based on many factors, including availability of rooms/room types, flights and demand for the packages, prices can fluctuate, even within minutes. As it is not uncommon for prices to fluctuate, Funjet Vacations suggests that you check out different flights or alternate dates for a lower fare that is still available. The only way to secure a vacation price is to pay for it in full.

Why is the promotional price (from the Hot Deals section or a sales page) different than the price that appears on the Package Summary screen?The price that you see on the Package Summary screen includes the promotional price, taxes and fees, and optional travel insurance. The promotional prices that are advertised on the website do not include government-imposed taxes and fees. They also do not include the optional travel insurance. Taxes and fees can include airport facility charges, federal taxes, state taxes, and government fees. The complete vacation package determines the specific fees and surcharges for your vacation. The optional travel insurance is automatically added for your convenience and protection. It can easily be removed from your vacation package before confirming the reservation.
How do I apply payments?

After you complete a search and create your preferred travel itinerary, click Book This Vacation to open the Checkout screen. You apply payments in Step 3 of the checkout process.

Are payments processed on a secure server? How do I know?

You can also see the "secure" url displayed briefly on the bottom left of the screen immediately after you click Complete Booking.

What taxes and fees do I have to pay?

Taxes and fees can include airport facility charges, federal taxes, state taxes, and government fees. The complete vacation package determines the fees and surcharges. The web site includes these fees in all vacation prices that appear on the selection screens. Advertised Hot Deal or email prices do NOT include air and hotel taxes and fees. When you search using the vacation search tool, the prices you see in availability include the air and hotel taxes and fees when you book online. You can use Click here for more information on taxes and fees under the Total price in the Package Summary screen to review a description of included taxes and fees. In some foreign destinations, there may also be additional nominal fees not included in the vacation package price. These fees are due upon arrival and must be paid at the airport before departure. For a listing of these fees, see our Terms and Conditions.

Can I use more than one credit card to apply payment?

No. You can use one credit card to apply payment.

However, you can still confirm reservations, even if your computer uses a pop-up blocker.

As a general rule, if you click an item in the web site and the item does not appear, your computer's pop-up blocker may be preventing the item from displaying. You may want to temporarily disable the blocker, so you can see the missing item.
