Frequently asked questions
How much does a family holiday cost?
It depends on destination, season and style. A week for two adults and two kids can range from around $2,500 in Turkey or Thailand to $7,000+ in Japan, the USA or the UK once flights are included.
Do babies cost money on holiday?
Under-2s often fly for about 10% of the adult fare on international flights and usually stay free in hotels. They still add costs for nappies, food and gear rental.
