Why Aren't Flights Included? Let’s Break It Down.

**Why Aren't Flights Included? Let’s Break It Down.**

One of the most common questions I get is, “Are flights included?” And the answer is a big, resounding NO!

1. **Pay Over Time:** JetLife Vacations offers flexible payment plans, with most vacations planned up to 15 months in advance. This allows you to pay over time, making your dream vacation more affordable.

2. **Airlines Release Prices Later:** Airlines only release their prices 11 months before departure. This means we’d have to estimate costs far in advance, which could result in us charging you much more to cover any potential losses.

3. **Beware of Hidden Costs:** If someone is including flights, chances are they’re charging you double or even triple the actual price based on last year’s rates.

4. **Travel Experience Starts with Your Flight:** Your journey starts with your flight, and we can’t control what the airlines do. If your flight gets delayed, canceled, or if there’s any issue, you’re likely to blame the travel agency. We’d rather not take on that risk.

5. **No Overcharging:** Simply put, we don’t want to take responsibility for managing your flight, and we don’t feel right about overcharging you to cover unpredictable airline costs.

**And let's clear up a rumor:** There's a misconception floating around that travel agencies can get you discounts on flights. That's FALSE! We get the same rates you do. If you're looking for the best deals, I recommend using Skyscanner or joining a miles club like Delta or American Airlines.
