Our Pricing Transparency & Methodology

To provide an honest comparison of our savings, the fares displayed on this page are updated weekly based on a standardized "Market Baseline."

How we calculate featured deals:

  • Comparison: We identify the lowest published retail fare for this specific route and airline during the current week. We then compare this to our exclusive consolidator inventory to show your "Instant Savings."

  • Standard: By default, our database focuses on 4 and 5-star airlines (with select 3-star carriers), prioritizing non-stop or 1-stop flights for a premium experience.

  • Regional Hubs: Prices are generally based on major East, West, and Central US hubs to provide a consistent national average.

Custom requests (going beyond the database): The deals shown above serve as a generic guide for our current market strength. However, we are not bound by these rules. If you have specific requirements, we can customize your quote to include:

  • Any departure city (beyond major hubs).

  • Specific airline preferences or alliances.

  • Multi-stop itineraries or complex routings.

Note: Travel markets are volatile. While we update these fares weekly, real-time availability may vary. For a 100% accurate, 30-minute guaranteed quote tailored to your exact needs, please contact our specialists.

Asia Miles Earning

Important: Consolidator fares typically earn limited miles compared to published fares.

Estimated earnings on Consolidator fares:

  • New York to Hong Kong: ~1,500-2,000 Asia Miles (vs 10,000+ on full-fare Business)

  • Los Angeles to Hong Kong: ~1,200-1,800 miles (vs 8,000+ on full-fare)

However, Your $4,000+ cash savings far exceed the value of miles you'd earn on retail fares. Asia Miles are worth approximately 1.2-1.4 cents each, so you're saving the equivalent of 300,000+ miles in cash.

Better Strategy: Use credit cards that earn transferable points (Chase, Amex, Citi) to accumulate Asia Miles. Your consolidator ticket purchase earns 2,000-3,000 miles through credit card spending alone.
