Is it cheaper to buy a travel package?
The airline negotiates a better price – Typically you’ll be saving money with a package because the price of your accommodations or your flight are reduced when buying as a package. You’ll also get to stay at top-rated hotels for unbelievable rates when they come packaged with flights. Generally not, and especially not for short distances. For the most part, any discount you’d get from using a travel agent would be for a combined package. Still, it never hurts to ask if your travel agent can get you a deal on your flight.
