What is a low-cost airline?

Low-cost airlines, such as Ryanair or EasyJet, are carriers that offer discounted tickets through a business model focused on cost reduction. Unlike traditional airlines, they eliminate or charge separately for additional services for passengers, including:

  • Checked baggage: Usually charged extra; only carry-on baggage is included.

  • Seat selection: Often requires a fee.

  • Meals and drinks on board: Paid services for passengers.

  • Entertainment and onboard services: Limited services, with no individual screens or entertainment systems.

  • Secondary airports: Frequent use of less expensive airports, which can increase travel time to the city center.

In exchange for these reductions, passengers benefit from attractive fares but must pay for each additional service, which can raise the final cost.

Note: Some low-cost airlines, like EasyJet, apply additional fees for tickets sold through travel agencies, which is why direct prices on their websites may be cheaper.

On the other hand, your employees must pay upfront for these expenses, resulting in a loss of centralized billing and the complimentary support from our support team :


Assistance for Reservations: If a flight or fare is not available directly on Fairjungle, you can contact customer support for assistance. Our support team can:

  • Manually handle the booking or add baggage to ensure centralized processing within the company.

  • Optimize bookings so that users continue to benefit from the services and advantages of Fairjungle, even for manual reservations.
