budget fare

Low-cost travel option

Budget fare is a low-cost ticket price, typically for air travel, that offers basic transportation at reduced rates.

Budget fares usually come with restrictions—no refunds, no changes, limited baggage, fewer seat choices: I booked a budget fare but had to pay extra for a carry-on.

Airlines use tiered pricing where budget fares sit at the bottom.
