Is there a fee for using Travelocity?

Travelocity account creation or authentication is required. You will be required to pay a membership fee of $99 for one (1) year of membership. The membership fee is not refundable, except as expressly set forth in these Terms.



No, there is generally no direct fee charged to consumers for using Travelocity to search for and book travel in 2026. Travelocity makes its revenue through commissions paid by airlines, hotels, and car rental companies, or through "merchant model" markups on vacation packages. However, you may encounter specific fees for booking by phone or for making changes and cancellations to your itinerary, depending on the service provider's rules. While Travelocity offers a "Price Match Guarantee" and often provides discounts like "15% off your first hotel booking" via their app, you should always check the final checkout screen for any "Service Fees" or "Taxes & Fees" that are passed through from the individual airline or hotel provider.
