Blocked seat inventory
Seats are held before payment, which locks the fare while the group settles its final headcount. No deposit on most bookings, and no pressure to commit names you don't have yet.
Corporate retreats, destination weddings, school trips, pilgrimages and sports squads. Airlines run separate group desks with fares that are quoted rather than published — we deal with them directly, hold your seats before you pay, and give you one specialist from enquiry to boarding pass.
Airlines run separate group desks with their own inventory and their own fares. Those fares never appear on a public website — they are quoted, not published. Ten passengers is the threshold, and crossing it changes what a seat costs.

Group bookings fail on logistics, not price. The fare is the easy part; holding it while twenty people make up their minds is the work.

Consolidated pricing from airline group desks — a different inventory from the public website, quoted rather than published.
A single specialist owns the booking: seat allocation, meal requests, name changes, cancellations. They know your group without being told twice.
Many carriers offer a free or reduced leader fare, and complimentary upgrades that accrue with headcount. We tell you which apply before you book, not after.
Group tickets usually allow substitutions close to departure — the single biggest advantage over individual tickets when your travellers aren't final.

One bookingMost airlines set the threshold at ten passengers on the same itinerary. Below that, group fares generally don't apply — though on some routes we can ask the desk about eight or nine. Send the enquiry and we'll tell you honestly whether a group fare beats booking individually.
Often not. Many group bookings hold for five to fourteen days with nothing paid while you confirm the passenger list. Peak season and long-haul routes can require a per-seat deposit — if yours does, it will be stated in the quote rather than raised later.
Usually yes, and this is the main advantage of a group fare. Substitutions are typically permitted close to departure, subject to the airline's policy. Your specialist confirms the exact deadline for your booking in writing.
Within two hours during business hours, seven days a week. If a route needs a response from an airline group desk it can take longer — you'll be told that rather than left waiting.
Yes. Multi-origin groups are routine — guests converging on one destination from several cities, priced together and seated together on the shared legs.
Group tickets usually allow a proportion of the group to cancel or be substituted without affecting the rest of the booking. The exact terms depend on the airline and are set out in your quote before you commit.
