Voucher 150-180u.e-true or fraud?
I just can’t understand, well, how can a ticket cost 150 (burning) and 180 ordinary if the cost of the flight is only from 200 USD round trip or even higher, what is “cheese” as they say and what to expect for additional costs (available in mind well, quite a budget vacation (bought, slept and went home) Everywhere in the price is included a ticket from Kyiv and back ??? - what to pay extra?

Last-minute deals are always reduced in price, especially since you were looking for a budget vacation .. probably took 3 days there for a tour, so it turned out so cheap ..

It doesn't matter how long (in my case it's 6 days) you get air tickets for free??? or somewhere in the process they will say-"pay or get out "?

There are such vouchers, if you didn’t fly on them, then it doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. It's just that most of the last-minute trips are a scam. For example, a 2-3 star hotel, or no meals, etc. These are almost all hot tours. Since real last-minute tours can never be obtained by an ordinary person, they are sorted out by their people, relatives, friends, etc.
And the last minute ticket comes out so cheap. the tour operator buys a seat on the plane, reserves a place in the hotel, and if you do not arrive, then they simply disappear. That is why they put them at low prices in order to earn at least something. And if with 100% a couple will be burning, then they will not be at a loss anyway.
So if it's not a relative or a friend who offers you a last minute trip, then it's not a last minute one, but just a super simplified version of the rest :)

I didn’t understand anything, this resource is full of such proposals (180.u.e. + - 15) for example:
http://www.otpusk.com/search/search_det.php?hid=19346&dts=06.12.2008&dte=07.12.2008&len=5&food=bb&trans=air&fDeptCity=1544&fRegID=1
and a dozen more such offers, and these are not last-minute but ordinary vouchers, so where to laugh?

I flew on a burning one for 240 c.u. and everything was fine: a round-trip flight and meals for breakfast and dinner. It’s just that the flights are not closed, so as not to fall into a loss at all, the travel agency dumps for such an amount in order to sell. As a rule, these are several places on the plane, and if you have time, the ticket is yours.

I see"burning " led into a delusion, they answer me about some kind of extreme. Here, according to the link above, it’s quite a normal ticket and for 180. As I understand it, no one rested at such prices? I’m asking where and when they will start extorting surcharges in such a price range, etc.

I always fly on such offers, we Slavs are used to everything, there will be no horrors, or rather the risk is the same for 200, which is the same for 500 .... last-minute tours are the norm, just buy directly from a tour operator, and not an intermediary travel agency , which winds up a percentage ... .

I don't see prices less than $300 per person. But it's not that. The mechanism for the appearance of such prices is described above. I systematize. The operator has bought out the charter, for some part of the charter, rooms in hotels have already been bought out. Therefore, if the seats are not redeemed, the operator begins to lower prices to cost, then launches roulettes (bingo, parlays), then sells at a loss. Since it is no longer possible to refuse a charter and numbers without fines. The task is to sell at the maximum price, minimizing losses.
Those. any price is theoretically possible. Especially in mid-December, which is ALWAYS on fire for obvious reasons, especially in this year of the global crisis.
But to have no illusions. For the operator, this is a loss. And this means that the operator may not have enough money to pay for all the elements of the tour.
This does not threaten those who bought tours from large operators who have a reserve, and the share of such sales is small, and the image cannot be lost due to market failures - it costs much more. Small and unreliable ones can have problems. I will not deal with the current anti-advertising, but many remember how the first charter to the Dominican Republic failed last year - the operator did not pay for the return flight

You can not remember last year, just a month ago they showed on TV the people who lived in Taba at the airport for several days, until their relatives paid them back tickets. A hot tour is always a big extreme, so you need to be ready for anything and have with you approximately the amount that you managed to save. It probably won't come in handy, but it'll be quieter that way. Although, who is insured against jokes when buying a normal expensive tour?)))
And the offers on the link are not bad, you can choose a normal hotel, especially for that kind of money)))

More clarifications so that there are no illusions. Large, reliable operators themselves tours to individuals, i.e. people do not sell. It is not economically interesting for agencies to sell cheap tours, since they (we) live on a percentage of the operator's price. Yes, and it does not burn at the agency, but at the operator. Therefore, the buyer needs to take an active position - do not rely on telephone conversations, ask the right questions, control the price, find a common language with the manager. And everything will be ok. You don't need to be afraid.

Have you called the travel agency?
now there is a crisis all over the world, people who have lost their jobs are not up to traveling and the dollar has become worth other money (especially in Ukraine). And tour operators turned out to be in the ass by reserving places in hotels in the summer that are not redeemed right now. Their sales have fallen by 2 times!
+ oil has fallen in price by 3 times - hence the cost
flight dropped
Of course the prices must come down.

if you buy a tour from well-known tour operators (through any travel agency), then there is no risk. browse the sites of tour operators several times a day and when such an offer pops up, run to the nearest travel agency that works with this tour operator (usually agencies work with all known ones) and ask to book this tour. Or call, because this tour can be lost in a few hours. Bought it and don't have it. And here is another option. A client came, books a tour, leaves a deposit. We book, he refuses, the deposit is not returned to him, but we still paid half the price. We are looking for a client already for half the price in order to return our money, and even minus our reward. We do not find. We sell for $ 50 (for example), just to return at least something. Everything is real, you just have to get on the case. And just look for last-minute tours on sites, as I said.

by the way"Vacation com " is just an advertisement for travel agencies. When you call them, they will definitely not have this promotional tour, but they "hooked the client" and maybe they will sell something to him, beautifully telling that the price changed 10 minutes ago, but there is ... And so on .

and only on the tour operator's website you can see real tours in the search engine, just don't forget to check the "only available tours" checkbox and pay attention to the availability of plane tickets.

By the way, otpusk.com does not advertise agencies. The system is completely different. This site imports operator prices, the so-called STRs. Those. the operator has released new prices in 10 minutes, they will be visible on vacation. And it shows the prices of all operators present on the market. If more than one operator has a certain hotel, the best (i.e. lower) price will be shown. Those. we have the property that a single operator does not have - the best price on the market. Someone is on fire, someone is not, someone is overpriced for this hotel, some hotel exclusively sells only one operator. Agency details appear only after a specific tour is selected and only those who work with this operator are shown. Of course, the primary source is the operator. But for a non-specialist, looking for a last-minute tour on the sites of operators is not entirely effective. And if it is off and you need a better price or the right date. We just work with otpusk.com and I know the system.
In addition, large operators do not sell tours themselves. Therefore, the attendance of otpusk.com is higher than that of any operator. Okay, enough of the praises. There are glitches. There are no more seats on the flight, and the prices for the tour are still visible. This is exactly what is specified by calling the agency.

we don't work with vacation.com, but when we still didn't have a travel agency, I often called these tours that are listed on the site and those travel agencies that, according to the site, sell them. The result was always the same - they explained to me that this is not exactly as it is written on the site, but somehow differently. Poto was very upset, because. the soul has already tuned in to a small price, but the reality turned out to be completely different. That's why I started looking at prices only on the websites of tour operators, where everything is real. I am sure that it is more reliable and without unnecessary hopes, which is why I advise tourists to do just that.

so now you are working. You can check for yourself whether there is such a price or not. It is much easier to enter real prices, rather than invent non-existent ones. You are an expert. And then we write, and then we make excuses. And why then the system of selection of tours for travel agencies? With us, when a tourist comes even prepared, the tour selection procedure still takes at least an hour and a half - to check which of the operators has the selected hotel, find the best price, make sure there are places available, show what else is available at the same price, perhaps there are better options. Lots of time with the help of a trained person. And you also need to evaluate the possibility of booking (how many places are left, for which dates the hotel is in the stack, accommodation options, the likelihood of a price reduction, what were the best prices for this hotel, etc.). You don't need to profane. Even with the help of a specialist, the choice is not always successful and timely. Again, the reliability of the operator and the hotel.
Especially today.

by and large, there is only one problem with vacation prices - the flight or hotel has closed, but the price is still visible. But these are charter flights and the blocks of places in hotels are different for operators. What is better - to have all the prices in one place with this restriction or to fumble through the websites of operators? Site visit statistics show that the first option is better. Take a look at bigmir.net
