Region

North America

Status

Methodology framework

Cadence

Monthly when airline policy and observed fare samples are available.

Quote-Ready Summary

Fly2Any recommends comparing total fare exposure, not just base fare, when baggage and seat rules materially change trip cost.

Methodology

  • Separate base fare, carry-on policy, checked-bag policy, seat rules, and cancellation terms.
  • Use official airline policy pages or observed booking-session terms for each rule.
  • Do not mark planning examples as bookable offers.

The current CSV is a methodology framework, not a live fare dataset. It is intentionally marked as non-observed until live samples meet source and freshness requirements.
