Family Vacation with Child Fixed Price 2026

What is a Child Fixed Price?

The Kinderfestpreis (child fixed price) is a popular pricing model offered by German tour operators that allows families to budget their vacation costs more effectively. Instead of paying variable prices based on destination, season, or trip length, children pay a fixed amount - typically ranging from 99 to 499 euros.

This pricing model is particularly attractive for families planning longer vacations or traveling during peak season when regular prices would be significantly higher. The savings can reach up to 600 euros per child compared to standard pricing.

All major German tour operators including TUI, DER Touristik, Alltours, FTI, and Schauinsland offer child fixed price options, though the specific rates, age limits, and included services vary between providers.

Tips for Maximum Savings

Book Early

Combine early bird discounts (up to 40%) with child fixed prices for maximum savings. Book 4-6 months in advance for summer holidays.

Compare Operators

Child prices vary significantly. A difference of 100-200 euros per child adds up quickly for families with multiple children.

Check Age Limits

Some operators offer fixed prices up to age 14, others only to age 11. This can make a big difference for older children.

Consider All-Inclusive

All-inclusive packages often provide better value for families as children can eat and drink without additional costs.
