Is it possible to extend the time of stay in a package tour while already on vacation, thereby changing the return date?
Is it possible to extend the time of stay in a package tour while already on vacation, thereby changing the return date? That is, it was a week - I decided to stay for a couple more weeks. Or will I have to buy a new ticket for the return trip?

"Package tour" - includes everything, including a place on a charter (round trip). In order to insert you into the charter two weeks later (which means that your place in your charter will be lost, and in the charter, which will be two weeks later, you need to complete the place "there", leaving you a place on the "back") ...this is too much fuss for the tourism industry workers. Who will be doing this? Yes, and the scheme to "leave on your own" by buying a ticket for a regular flight, sacrificing a seat on a charter, is also doubtful. The tour company that sold you the "package tour" and the MOT is, to some extent, responsible for your holiday from start to finish.
I think that this idea is doubtful.

Now our ladies of criticism will attack me because of my phrase "... your place in your charter will be lost ...". Of course, the place will remain empty in any case. The place "there" will also be with a passenger, they will complete it. But this is additional work for booking airline tickets. Who will do this especially for you, just because you suddenly decided to change the dates of your stay, already being on a package tour ???

By the way, there is also "Insurance" calculated for your stay in the Package Tour...

The task is difficult, but solvable (in the low season). If there are places on the charter and in the hotel, then it is possible, but very troublesome. Although the hotel can be negotiated at the reception. But the price will not be the same as in a package tour. Contact the guide, maybe for baksheesh, he will try to do something. If you are going to extend - do not forget to immediately issue a visa at the airport.

Question about package tour. What you are talking about is a personal initiative and responsibility of a tourist. Basically, everything is possible. Go to some country by buying a "Package Tour", and then spit on this tour and get married ...
аватар Bovik
By the way, this is the first very reasonable question.
I often asked myself.
Rest, everything is awesome. Tour for 8 nights.
And on the penultimate day, my beloved begins: "She said that it was necessary to take 10 nights."
And immediately thought, it would be good to extend the tour for 1-2 nights.
Both the student and the tourist always miss 1 night.
But for 10-12 nights the limit. More, it's hard to carry away.

lazy_person, the guide officially works from the operator. He has all the lists of arrivals and departures. For a fee, maybe he can help. Although you will have to tinker. And to extend the package - of course, this is a personal initiative of the tourist.

When the rest is a success, this question always arises.

I extended, but not Egypt, but Turkey. This can be done through the operator on the spot, pay for the hotel yourself at the hotel, book additional days through booking, and if you have the opportunity to transfer money to your travel agency that booked the package tour for you, then through the travel agency. It was more profitable through a travel agency
Options with charter flights need to be addressed only through the operator or through your travel agency. In most cases, I had to either buy a return ticket for the regular season or a charter

I am not a travel agent, these are my thoughts. The "package", as you say, begins with the "Agreement" ... there are all the conditions for the "package". Who will remake all this, make changes? Everything you talk about is a personal initiative. "Baksheesh", postponement of departure, extension of "Insurance", hotels or another hotel ... this is no longer "The Bag".

Vika, how did you buy a ticket for a charter flight? Share! Just wondering.
аватар Vika284
You can sell your return ticket for a charter at the minimum cost, but this must be done very well in advance and it is also better through a travel agency.

I am a ticket for a charter through a travel agency, I know for sure that our girls who worked as guests and animators in hotels bought tickets to return home through guides
аватар travelsita
lazy_person, well, let what I wrote go beyond the scope of the contract (I didn’t read anything about the extension of the tour in the contract). But the question of changing the date of departure and adding days of rest at the initiative of a tourist staying at a hotel is not regulated by contractual relations. This is decided with the guide on an individual basis or independently, especially if the tourists are already in the hotel. The game would be worth the candle.
аватар lazy_person
For an ordinary person who went to the sea, all this is empty and worthless fuss. Sitting, negotiating (on the beach) the sale of your charter spot, running to the bank to transfer money, calling Vika at the tour agency, looking out for hostels and animators (to sell them your charter) ... FUCK!
It's easier to spit on the "Packet", on a charter, on a travel agent, book a hotel, buy a return ticket and enjoy your vacation.
аватар mindguru
You need to understand that an individual can buy a ticket for a charter flight only in exceptional cases, as a rule, through other individuals who have blat or who directly work in the TO. You will not be able to come to the box office and buy a ticket or buy a ticket online. Don't confuse people.
аватар mindguru
Well, or your personal plane performs charter flights. Also quite an option.

What kind of charter is this? In this case, the ticket will be for a regular flight, for example "Turkish Airlines". Selling your charter and buying a new one, not everyone can do it ... only Vika284 can do it. Everyone understands this very well. Nobody confuses anyone.

Here even from this discussion it is perfectly clear - a DUBIOUS VENTURE, associated with excessive running around and waste.

Friend, you are straining me with your thoughts. Charter tickets are not sold.
Please don't write anything.

That is, is it possible to extend the tour on the spot?
аватар mindguru
I was alarmed by the offer to buy "either to buy a return ticket for the regular season or a charter". I went to the cashier and bought it. Only Vika284 can do this. So I asked you to share your experience.
And when it started about "selling your return ticket for a charter" ... Where can we go!
аватар mindguru
Bovik, you can extend not the tour, but your stay at the hotel. How much money is enough. In this case, the return to their homeland, including transfer to / from the airport, is the work of the vacationers themselves. As for the visa and insurance, by the way, you don’t need to forget either.
аватар mindguru
The package tour cannot be extended.

So they don't sell it??? A shaft of tickets.

But I agree with this 100% They will return home, and in a couple of months to take off again - that's it :)
аватар vezha2
You cannot extend the package tour in any way - the duration, transfers, living conditions are indicated in the contract.
If you extend your stay - calculate how much one day of stay + transfer to the airport will cost you.
It is very problematic to sell a return ticket to your charter, and it can take a lot of time and, as a result, end in nothing.
Well, a return ticket can cost half the cost of a package tour - if you're lucky, book them online.
And now add up all the additional material costs, and especially moral ones - will these two or three extra days be worth it?
аватар Vika284
Facebook is full of groups of last-minute and abandoned tours where they sell refused tickets at least in two directions, at least one for a charter
What a bustle, I did all the actions of buying, negotiating with a travel agent and transferring money for a ticket while sitting by the sea on a lounger from my phone through viber and a banking application
I have never bought a plane ticket in cash. I assume that many here when they fly on a tour even take printouts of tickets to the airport and show them at check-in?
аватар travelsita
There is no word in the contract about the possibility of extension (clear dates of rest). To extend it, you should not kill precious time for the transfer. And if you still really want to - go for it. But no one will give you a guarantee. On vacation, you need to relax and forget about worldly affairs.

Tickets are not sold for charter
==========
What nonsense? All maintenance is sold, they need to fill the board, not the hotel. Another thing is that in the high season you have to be at a low start. Egi strongly in advance on average 350 dollars 2 ends, in a couple of days you can catch up to 100 dollars in one. We took charter tickets many times for various reasons. From here without problems, from there the question is to transfer money to the agency (it has been solved for a long time). "Our Egyptians" in the port manage to take
An example of burning departures on Rosa
аватар klichko
There were attempts to negotiate an extension through TO. Exorbitant prices were set, so they took a number at the counter, and caught tickets. If rest is more expensive than all the money in the world, we solve the issue
