How It Calculates

The total budget is calculated by summing:

Total accommodation cost: numPeople * (numDays – 1) * accommodationCost. One less night than the number of days is assumed for accommodation.
Flight cost: flightCost

Limitations

This calculator assumes that each person will have their own room for accommodation. It also assumes that the flight cost and other expenses are one-time, cumulative expenses for all travelers. Please adjust your inputs accordingly if your travel plan differs.
