Can I set different profit margins for flights and hotels instead of adding the same amount to every booking?

Yes, you can usually set different profit margins for flights and hotels, so you do not have to use the same markup for every type of booking. This helps you protect your earnings while keeping the final selling price suitable for each product.

The available controls depend on your glideFares plan and the suppliers connected to your portal. You may be able to use a fixed markup, a percentage markup, or separate rules for particular products, destinations or suppliers. Some fares and special rates may have restrictions that limit how they can be marked up or displayed.

Before applying a new rule, check whether taxes, supplier charges and payment charges are included in the amount used to calculate your margin. It is also important to review the final price shown to the customer, because a rule that works well for one booking may make another booking less competitive. Changes normally apply to new searches and bookings, not to reservations that are already confirmed.

Check the markup settings available in your plan, then test a few flight and hotel searches to make sure the selling price and expected profit appear as intended.
