BA package - how do you search?

[Elodie]

I was looking at booking a flights and hotel package with BA for our cruise next Easter, but I can’t figure out how to just book a hotel for the nights we need and not the entire holiday (ie not while we’re on the cruise).*

*Currently looking at earlier dates for practice so I know what I’m doing once Easter flights are released!

Can anyone help me / tell me what I’m doing wrong?

What I do is use the custom trip button, tick flights, hotel and car. Then put in your flights dates and then enter your dates for your hotel. Then click get prices rather than click on the car tab.

As above. Use customise your trip. Very flexible tool.

From the Home Screen, click on Flight+Hotel or Flight+Car, and you should see an option to create custom trip. This will then enable you to select each individual component you need to build your package.

If you do flight and car or flight and hotel you end up in a different system to customise your trip.

If you put in a car a hotel and a flight you will get booted to the ba holidays backsite with sometimes different flight offers etc so I understand
Can then delete the car bit later if wanted.

Thank you, I’ve just realised where I was going wrong!

I’d googled ‘BA Florida package’ and used the Google link to a Florida holidays page on the BA site, which didn’t seem to have the customise trip option, and would only let me choose flights 7 days apart with a hotel for the duration. I just went to the BA homepage instead and it all works like everyone said. I wouldn’t have realised without Mason mentioning the home screen!
