Process for Group Air Tickets Booking for a normal Flyer.
You will be able to book tickets as a group if you have minimum of 10 people. You will receive 1 free (but you must pay taxes and fees) per 16 people. If you book 32 seats, 2 seats are free. Everyone must take the same flights and same class of service for the entire itinerary. (free air tickets do not offered by every airlines... it vary airlines to airlines policy)
2. Confirmation
When your group seats are available in particular flight, you must pay NON REFUNDABLE deposit of cancellation fee of per ticket per person immediately to receive confirmation from airline.
Once your group seats are confirmed, you can not add seats. For example, you booked 30 seats with 1 free. After confirmed, you can not get 2 free by adding 2 more seats (total 32 seats). Any additional seats less than 9 must be booked separately and can not be combined.
3. Guarantee for AirFare
Once airline received your advance deposit of cancellation fee, your airfare which airlines promised is guaranteed. Unfortunately, as other said, your group airfare does not necessarily cheaper than airfare available online. After you booked seats as a group, and even if you find cheaper airfare online, airlines does not lower your group fare.
4. Names
You don't have to give passenger names right away. You may hold seats without names until about 15 days before departure date.
5. Seat Assignment
You may request seat assignment every time you send name(s) to airline. that may be chargeable from airlines (depends on airlines policy)
6. Cancellation
You may cancel up to 20% of seats you booked with advised penalty at the time of confirmation of your group booking by airlines. For example, if you booked 20 seats, you may cancel up to 2 seats with normal penalty. for further cancellation charges may differ as per airlines particulars.
7. Final Payment
You must pay in full by about 30 days before departure. After that, no cancellation or no name changes are allowed. There is no refund for any unused seats, and airline resells those seats.
8. Check In
You must check in as a group at the same time at group check in counter at the airport.
This may be changed and each airline has a different policy.
