Package Bookings

Last updated September 28, 2026

Plenty of what you sell arrives as one bundle at one price, with commission paid on the bundle as a whole. Package Bookings model it that way inside JourneyFuse: a single package booking holds the total price and commission, and the included pieces sit underneath it as components marked "included, no separate charge."

No more shredding a package into separate line items where one hotel shows the whole package price and commission is scattered across pieces.

Perfect for:

  • Split stays sold on one supplier booking — a few nights at one resort, the rest at another, both under a single VAX, ALG, or Funjet confirmation.
  • All-inclusive and tour-operator packages where flights, transfers, and the resort come as one price.
  • Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando vacation packages — resort, park tickets, dining plan, express passes.
  • Any bundle you sell at one combined price with one commission.

What a package looks like

  • One Package card shows the total price and the full commission, plus a summary of what the package covers.
  • The included pieces appear nested inside that card as components, each labeled "Included · no charge."
  • Trip totals, invoices, and commission reports count the package once — components never double-count.
  • Price monitoring and rebook alerts work at the package level, which is how you actually rebook when a promotion drops.

Something is included but has no price of its own

Park tickets, express passes, a dining plan, transfers — a package often includes pieces that are not a separate charge. You still want them on the trip (and on your client's itinerary), you just do not want to be asked for a price.

Open the booking (or add a new one), and under Pricing & Commission tick Included in the package price, no separate charge. The price boxes clear and lock, and the row on the Bookings tab reads "Included · no charge" instead of prompting you to add a price. The package booking keeps the money.

You do not have to nest the piece under a package for this to work. Nesting (below) is for when you want the pieces grouped under one card with one commission; the box is for the quick case where the piece simply is not billed separately. Typing a price into a booking later un-ticks it — a price and "no separate charge" cannot both be true.

Three ways to create a package

When you import a package confirmation through AI Import Booking, JourneyFuse recognizes a vacation package and groups it for you. In the review step you'll see the package on top with its components nested beneath. You can re-assign a piece, pull one out to standalone, or edit the package total and commission before importing.

2. Combine existing bookings

Already have the pieces on a trip as separate bookings? Group them:

  1. Open the trip's Bookings tab.
  2. Tick the bookings you want to combine. A bar appears at the bottom showing how many are selected.
  3. Click Group or combine. The button needs at least two bookings selected.
  4. In Combine or group bookings, choose One supplier package, then click Review supplier package.
  5. In Combine into a package, under Package parent, pick Create a new package (and give it a name) or Use "…" as the package to promote one of the selected bookings.
  6. Enter the Package total price and, if you know it, the Commission (optional), then click Combine into package.

The chosen pieces become components and lose their individual prices — the package now carries the money. Each one is marked included in the package price, and Remove from package clears that mark again so a piece that goes standalone asks for its own price.

Split stays

This is the flow for a split stay. Build the itinerary the normal way, with a hotel block for each property and a transfer between them, then add the second hotel as its own booking so it keeps its dates and confirmation number. Back on the Bookings tab, tick both that hotel and the supplier package it came under, then choose Group or combine → One supplier package → Review supplier package. Because one of your picks is already a package, the dialog opens as Add to package instead of asking you to pick a parent, and its button reads Add to package too. The second hotel folds underneath, and the supplier package keeps the one price and one commission it was sold at.

3. Build one by hand

From New Booking, choose the Vacation Package type and set the total and commission. Save it, then attach the pieces on the Bookings tab: tick the package and its pieces, click Group or combine, choose One supplier package, and finish with Add to package.

Add the bundled flight to a package

For an all-inclusive from VAX, ALG, Apple or FunJet, the flights come inside the package price. On the Bookings tab, open the package's ⋯ menu and choose Add flight to this package. The flight opens on Flight details: add the legs (flight number, date and times) and click Update. The flight sits under the package as a component, the price and commission stay on the package, and each leg shows on the client's itinerary and gets flight alerts like any other flight. The resort keeps its own card on the itinerary too.

When you bring a package confirmation in with AI Import Booking, its flights land inside the package the same way.

Only one package at a time. If you tick two packages, the dialog says so and will not continue. Add components to one package, then the other.

Group bookings without combining money

Not every set of bookings that belongs together was sold as one package. A family's London arrival might be a flight, a transfer and a hotel, each from a different supplier with its own price. To keep them together on the list without touching the money:

  1. Tick two or more active bookings on the Bookings tab and click Group or combine.
  2. Leave Display together, keep separate finances selected (it is the default).
  3. Type a Group name, for example London arrival, and click Create display group.

The bookings now sit under that name, labeled Display group · Separate prices, payments and commissions. Each booking keeps its own supplier, confirmation, price, payments and commission, and the trip total counts them exactly as before. The group only changes how your booking list reads. Click Ungroup on the group's header to remove it.

Choose One supplier package only when the services really were sold as a single package at one price, with one commission.

Editing a package

Expand the package to manage its included components. Each component keeps its own service name, dates, traveler details and confirmation. Use its visible edit control to update it.

The package supplier is who you booked through; the property or activity name identifies the service customers see. When available, use Supplier booking number for the operator reference and Confirmation number for the number the customer presents. Supplier-format hints appear when configured.

  • Remove a component: open the component's menu and choose Remove from package — it becomes a standalone booking again.
  • Delete a package: you'll be asked whether to delete the package and its components, or delete only the package and keep the components as standalone bookings.

How money works

The package parent owns total price, pre-tax price, and commission. Components carry no money of their own, so:

  • The trip total and invoice count the package once.
  • Commission tracks against the package as a whole. Unpaid component commissions roll into it. Entries with actual receipts or payouts are preserved and flagged for review, so financial history is not erased.
  • A "Bundle and Save" discount is folded into the package total, not added as a negative line.

Components still show on the itinerary

Only the money rolls up. Each component still places individually on the day-by-day itinerary, so a split stay reads as two hotels with a transfer between them and a theme-park package reads as resort, park days, and dining — your client's plan stays rich while your books stay clean.

A component keeps its own status and confirmation details. The summary counts the package once rather than treating its included components as separate sales.

Turning the package's own card into a hotel

A package booking gets one card of its own on the itinerary. If you open that card and change its type to Hotel, JourneyFuse asks which you mean:

  • The whole package: a resort stay, where the hotel is the package. The card stays linked to the package booking.
  • One hotel in the package: for a tour with several hotels. The hotel gets its own booking, marked as included in the package price, so it lists under Bookings with the others. The package keeps its own card.

If you are building a multi-hotel tour, you can also skip the package card entirely and add each hotel with Add item → Hotel.

  • Bookings — adding and editing the individual bookings that make up a package.
  • Rebook Deals — get alerted when a new promotion could save your client money on an upcoming package.
  • Disney Imports — forwarded confirmation emails attach to the package automatically.
  • AI Booking Import — how the importer extracts and groups offers.

Flights sharing one confirmation

Keep outbound, return and connecting legs from one reservation in one flight booking. Open that booking and add the other legs in Flight details. Each leg keeps its own route, date and time on the itinerary.

If you already saved the legs as separate bookings, use Combine flights on the trip's Bookings tab. Choose the reservation with the confirmation (and any package or payment details) to keep, choose the other flight booking, and select Review combination. Confirm only after checking the resulting legs and duplicate-card count.

The original booking remains in Previous / cancelled bookings as superseded. Different confirmations, conflicting flight details, different traveler assignments, or linked records that need individual review block consolidation. The operation does not combine payments or commissions. Group or combine → One supplier package is a separate operation for grouping different products under one package price.
