In the Flights module, various discount and commission mechanisms are applied dynamically to influence the final fare seen by the customer. These include both system-configured discounts and airline-driven commissions.
Booking Fee Discount
The Booking Fee Discount is a deduction applied per booking (not per passenger) and is displayed on the checkout screen. It helps reduce the booking fee charged to the customer.
🔧 Location of Configuration
The discount is configured in the Admin portal at the following paths:
- ADMIN → Airline Config → Default Section (B2B / B2C)
Parameter: `booking_fee_discount`
- ADMIN → Airline Config → Specific Airlines
- ADMIN → Agency Partners → [Company Name] → Airline Config
The system picks the most relevant configuration based on the booking context.
🧮 Discount Types & Logic
- Percentage-Based Discount
Applies a percentage off the total booking fee.
Example: If booking fee = $10 and discount = 2%, result = $0.20 off
- Fixed Discount
Applies a fixed amount off the booking fee.
Example: $5 discount reduces the booking fee by $5
- If Both Are Enabled
The system calculates both the percentage and fixed discount.
- *Final Discount = (Percentage of booking fee) + (Fixed discount) —- ==== 💡 Example ==== * Booking Fee: $10 * Percentage Discount: 2% → $0.20 * Fixed Discount: $5.00 * Total Discount Displayed at Checkout:** `$5.20`
