How to calculate a holiday budget
Start with the prices you can verify: return airfare per person and the room rate per night. The calculator multiplies each by the right unit, then adds destination-specific daily spending, activities and airport transfers.
A contingency matters because a holiday is priced over time. Rates move, exchange rates change and small costs collect quickly. Elsewhere adds 10% after the core trip costs so the headline total is useful for a real savings target.
When the estimate feels right, open the trip to compare stored flight and hotel options. A free account lets you keep the exact options together and receive price-drop alerts.
