Thread: Interline Fare Calculator for ZED tickets (inc. taxes)

The fares are very accurate, the taxes will not necessarily be because there are many factors that are considered to determine applicability plus, generally, currency has to be converted. A carrier must be a "participant" of the site to provide the tool to their employees.

Access to the fare calculator is what I'm talking about. That is limited to employees of participating airlines. Each participating airline loads the conditions of their ID/ZED agreements to their carrier specific site. That allows employees of AA, for example, to see airlines, eligibility, and fares applicable to them (i.e., it wouldn't show flights operated by XX if AA does not have an agreement with XX, not would it show a ZED Low fare for travel on an airline with which AA has a ZED Medium agreement).

Your subscirptionis for ID90.com, not to the fare calculator. The fare calculator, though, is used by DL and avaialble to DL employees.

mrs76.. for parents of airline employees-- how much does it cost to become member of id90?

Or, for people who have access to myidtravel.com you can just go through the procedure of purchasing a eZED then once you get to the payment just back out.

The ID90.com calculator is fairly accurate, at least for pricing out buddy passes (DL employees). For buddy pass fares they do not add on fuel surcharges, so not sure if any ZED tickets get charged fuel surcharges or not.

Another option is booking a seat on your own airline to see how much taxes are then use the ZED fee chart (zone/milage) then add on the tax that your airline would have charged you, as taxes should be the same for all airlines.

The thing I do not like is the airports (central/south america?) that have some type of airport access charge that does not show up anywhere and if you did not know about it and do not have the CASH on you you will not get into the airport (Costa Rica and Guatemala do this)

Sam, talk with your son/daughter to either allow you access to id90.com (this will be for the calculator only, at least for DL) or have them look up prices for you.

It looks like the calculator is getting pretty limited as it does not look like it is giving prices for airlines with eZED's- before eZED's it would list a lot more airlines.

OK, I just tried like 5 different routings and all I could get is routes for DL. It did not show any other airlines. So maybe with myidtravel the id90 calculator will become a thing of the past.
