A single price tag for your whole trip may sound appealing, but don’t assume it means more savings or more fun. Ask the following before you book:

• Have they given you a discount for booking as a family? Bringing in a big chunk of business should yield real benefits, such as discounted or upgraded rooms and lower-price meals for kids and seniors. Do note that most hotels already let kids under 18 stay free – so don’t consider that to be a big-group bonus. Some airlines also even offer fare discounts for group of ten or more.
• Are fees hidden in the fine print? Some hotels charge every guest for things like gym visits and poolside towels, even if they never used them. Also ask whether it will cost extra to have a mini fridge or cot in the room, and if there’s a charge for parking.
• Does your package entitle you to private excursion or special pricing for activities? For example, groups of eight or more who stay at a resort are eligible for gatherings packages, which can include activities like fireworks and tours.
