Flight deposit

**Floridarules** · 9 Sep 21, 08:35 PM

Hi, I was under the impression that if I booked flights and then added one or two nights in a hotel, I could pay deposit only.

Just tried this in BA, but it wants full payment 😔- Tried customise which I assumed would work.
With things as they are, I would rather just pay deposit.
Any suggestions would be fab 🤞

Make sure you're going through custom trip on flight + hotel rather than choosing a flight and then adding a hotel.

Thanks, did this. Doing on my phone though. Wondered if that made a difference?

Think I�ve worked it out. It can be done, however the flight price is more.
Same flight but in package- �100 pp more expensive 😔

I just tried on my phone and it's working fine

This was in browser rather than the app though, if that makes a difference.

You�re not trying to book a different airport or flight classes for out/ return are you? When I wanted to do this a couple of years ago I could only do it by phoning them for deposit only.
Hope you get sorted soon .

I tried that but also did same airport in and out. I found the price I wanted flight only, but when I added a night in hotel so I could pay as package, the same flight price increased by �100 😔
