Get the best Round the World airfares

A Round the World ticket is value for money. Sometimes Round the World ticket prices are cheaper than buying a single ticket to get you from A to B! With around the world airfares you can add many destinations to your trip. Find out how you can get the cheapest Round the World ticket to suit your needs.

Negotiated airfare	In addition to the "published" Round the World airfares that all travel agents have access to, STA Travel has negotiated specific deals that allow greater flexibility as well as more mileage for your dollar. For example, Round the World ticket prices are generally very comprehensive, with some fares offering more destination options than the traveller needs. STA Travel can now offer restricted versions of a published Round the World airfare and reduce the price accordingly, rather than just take off the destination(s) you don’t have the time or the inclination to get to.
Travel seasons	Low season Traditionally, this refers to the cheapest time to depart. Fares are based on the departure date, and are not affected by subsequent flights. So if you have some flexibility, plan around your ideal time to visit the ‘hot spots’ on your list – arriving a week or two earlier (or later) might just save you a few hundred dollars! High season This is the most popular time to travel and therefore the most expensive. The price difference is generally dictated by seasons (ie. the Northern Hemisphere summer or Christmas time) and there can be a $200 - $500 variance, depending on the fare that’s chosen. The seasonality of a Round the World airfare is only based on departure date and is not affected by subsequent flights.
Point to point vs Round the world airfares	This is the better bit… for the cost of a "point-to-point" airfare that will simply get you from A to B, STA Travel can get you Round the World! But make sure it’s the complete price you’re looking at - this is the final cost that includes all flights, booking charges and most taxes. There are some flight taxes collected directly at certain airports, so make sure you know before you leave whether this applies. The easiest way is checking on the airport or local tourism authority website.

Taxes & charges	These include costs imposed by airlines such as fuel surcharges as well government departure tax, noise levies and airport security charges. Remember that some countries have international departure taxes that need to be paid at the airport prior to going through customs, so keep some local currency handy.
