Group Travel FAQ

How many people can I take?

As many as you can fit on the airplane! We plan travel for individuals and mission or humanitarian groups of all sizes. Group sizes of at least 10-15 qualify for group tickets and keep as many members as possible on the same itinerary.

How far in advance should I book group tickets?

Booking as early as 11 months in advance will give us the most flexibility to find ideal flights and stretch your dollar. But in a crunch, plan on booking at least 6 months in advance to get the benefits of group tickets. 

In the case of an emergency or other last-minute travel plan, we can book at any time depending upon availability.

What are the benefits of group tickets?

Booking a group ticket has several advantages: 

  • Channel flight communication through one point-of-contact for your group
  • Reserve space on the flight before it fills up
  • Ensure the same price for everyone in your group
  • Depending on the airline, change names on tickets 3-7 days before the flight if plans change
What kind of groups do you work with?

We work with all kinds of groups. If you have a team planning a mission trip, we can figure out your flights. School groups? Yes! What about a family vacation? As long as there are more than 10 in your family, you are a group. What to lead your church members on a tour to Turkey? Definitely a group!

How many bags can I take?

Let us know if you have unique baggage needs! It does depend on the airline and ticket, but we strive to plan flights with your baggage needs in mind to avoid baggage nightmares like getting charged by the kilogram.

Does Butler Travel assist with visas?

We’re happy to give you a flight itinerary that some countries require to start the visa application process, but we are not able to help with or process the visa application itself.

Are service fees also incurred with group booking?

Yes, service fees are charged per ticket and included in the quote.

Do you book hotels, cruises or tours?

Yes! If you have a senior class trip wanting to go on a cruise or church wanting to do a tour to the Holy Lands, we can arrange everything. We have vendors for tours and can book group rates on any cruise line or hotel chain. 

Our office has worked with Butler Travel for over 10 years. In that time we have appreciated the attention to detail on our complicated airfare routes, swiftness in communication, and efficiency of processing.
