If you are using fares but want to change how you apply them to new bookings, without impacting existing ones, follow these guidelines:
💡 REMEMBER
Existing bookings only re-check fares if something changes on the booking, such as:
tour date
tour time
number or type of tickets
Otherwise, the fare remains as originally set on the booking.
You can approach this change in two ways:
Create New Fares
This approach avoids affecting existing bookings while giving you full flexibility for new ones.
Steps:
Do not delete old fares that are applied to existing bookings.
Move old fares into a separate fare group, for example 'Archived Fares'.

Create new fares for your new pricing strategy.

📒 NOTE
Do not group the new fares into a fare group.
Fare groups are ordered chronologically, with newer groups listed lower. sicne fare order affects which fare is applied, old grouped fares may be applied first. However, ungrouped fares are always listed first and applied first, which is intended in this case.
✅ DOs | ❌ DON'Ts |
Create new fares for your new strategy. Move the old fares into an 'Archived' group to separate them from active ones. | Delete fares that are in use. This can cause issues if old bookings later get modified, triggering fare recalculation without the original fare available |
Edit Existing Fares
If you prefer, you can also modify the rules within existing fares:
Changes will apply only to new bookings.
Existing bookings will not be affected unless the booking itself changes (date, tickets, etc., see above), which would trigger a re-check of fare applicability.
