Is the price of hot tours fixed and can it differ for different tour operators?
Tell me, please, on which site, besides Otpusk.com, do you monitor last-minute tours?
And it may be that on Vacation.com we see a last-minute tour to a certain hotel with certain dates at one price, and when requested from our travel agent, it turns out that this tour is more expensive from a certain operator? And if the tour is last-minute, then the price for it is the same for all tour operators or can it differ?
Our money is "stuck" in Joint, and now we are tied up to look for a tour only from them. But how to monitor all this and not be deceived?

In addition to the Vacation website, I additionally look at the website of various TOs
"And maybe this ..." - all questions on this point - yes, maybe
If the money is stuck on Join Up, it is correct to watch tours on the Join Up website. Compare tours to a certain hotel for a certain period from different TOs and think that you were mistakenly deceived.

You will have to monitor prices only with Join, there is no point in comparing with other tour operators - no one will transfer money to you. From my own experience, I will say that for the hotel I chose, the price from Join was 120 dollars more per person than from another tour operator.

Prices can differ, and very significantly. It all depends on many factors: the most important is the priority tour operator in the hotel. hotel, you see the difference between different operators, sometimes reaching insanity. This means that the main operator gives a franchise to others, but at a profit for himself. to zero, or with a slight plus. A few clients track the entire chain, it takes time, and the rest of the tourists usually rely on a travel agent. Therefore, the scheme works fine, and the travel agent sits on%, and its benefits are clear, good tours in terms of price or discounts are usually offered to regular customers, or when you need to get to the "plan".

If, due to circumstances, you are bound by financial obligations to Joint, the only option is to choose hotels. You just need to determine the range of hotels you want to visit, or in extreme cases, so as not to lose money, you are ready to go and track the price. To do this, you need two components - a list of hotels and a time period in which you can go. And then only your work will help you make a choice with minimal financial losses. Viewing other operators will give you the opportunity to understand how much the real price for the tour is, but it will not affect the situation in any way .In this situation, I can only wish you patience and good luck in your choice.

SergeiH123, as far as I know, Albatros Aqua Blu Resort Hurghada 4 * has been closed for tourists since January, while vouchers to it were sold at a fairly reasonable price, and vacationers were settled in Albatros Aqua Park or Albatros Vista. These three hotels one common area, they are divided purely conditionally. This is EXACT information from tourists who returned from Hurghada on February 26. I already warned about this in other branches. Perhaps the hotel has already been open since March, you need clarification. But buy a ticket to Albatros Aqua Blu Resort Hurghada 4, but to settle in other hotels, I consider this an unequal settlement. Therefore, if you offer this hotel, you must guarantee people that it works.

I do not advertise the hotel. It just has good prices. Viber offers very good prices. Cheaper flight????. Monitor and you will be lucky to see a good price for the hotel you have chosen, then show the screen to your tour operator if they offer you a higher price. But tours are sold very quickly. In the same Albatross, the sale was closed within 2 hours. Good luck)))

Sergey, what’s the point of offering a screen tour to the operator, can this really change something in our situation? After all, all the same, our money is stuck with them, and the tour operator does not work directly with tourists, as I was recently told by phone in Joint

Flowern390, I think Sergey meant to show the screen (of the tracked hotel that he liked) to the TOUR.AGENT so that for example you would not be "turned down" the price higher and quickly redeem) because. good price not offered for a long time (tours sell out quickly)

For other operators, it was displayed at 23-25 thousand, while Join turned down an unreasonably high price of -35-50 thousand.

Jonni.jo, yes, but does it make sense to show the screen to the tour agent if the tour agent understands that in any case we are forced to come to them and buy a tour so as not to lose our money

Flowern390, it is clear that in any case you will buy from them, the question is how much: for example, track a good price up to $ 1000 or, for example, focus on what they will offer and usually offer from $ 1500. agent works on %)

Vika284, will these hotels be equivalent in terms of the level that I wrote?
We need to fly out on 31.03 or 01.04. The closer to the departure date, is it likely that the price will be even cheaper in them than if we took it in advance (3 weeks in advance)?

Flowern390, now there is complete chaos in buying a tour. It is impossible to predict when the price will be higher / lower. Who of us expected that this winter period would be so inappropriate for the price. In October, in the "golden" season, I flew to Albatros Palace cheaper than he cost in February, in the season of cold winds. Now there is a weak trend for early booking, departure prices for now, 3-5 days before departure, are 10-20 percent higher than for the same April or later March.

With Join, you need to monitor every hour !!! From personal experience. At 10 am, for example, 1000, by lunchtime 800, after 18:00-600, then the next morning again 1000, by dinner 700, after 17:00 already 800. Leapfrog. Then the next day the price was 580 by 11 am and in half an hour everything was sold out. Output; go to the Joinup.ua website and monitor the flight / hotel. When the flights are green (round-trip plane) never buy, especially if there is less than a week before departure, then prices will fall, as soon as they turn yellow, you need to monitor hourly.

I will support Wiland: if you are not tied to specific dates and constantly "keep your finger on the pulse", you can catch a very good option with a price difference of almost two times. Well, look no more than a week before departure.

no guys. look, don't look, if the tour operator already has your money, he is not at all interested in finding something acceptable for you ... he really doesn't care how many screenshots you show him, etc. Chairs in the morning - money in the evening, and not vice versa. Sorry. she herself experienced the same sensations with a pegasus last March ... she barely ripped back the tickets. But, in any case, you have to hope that you will find. If the money hung more than 1k dollars, I really sympathize.
