The price of an Umrah depends on the room: the more people share a room, the lower the price per person. To keep customers, show an honest “from” price, the full grid per room and age, and the family’s exact total before it contacts you.
Why does the price depend on the room?
Hotels charge per room, not per person. A quad room shared by four costs less per person than a double shared by two. That is why agencies show four prices for one departure, and why customers leave when the grid is badly presented.
A typical grid
| Room | Adult | Child with bed | Child without bed | Infant |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quad | lowest price | reduced | reduced | flat fee |
| Triple | middle | reduced | reduced | flat fee |
| Double | higher | reduced | reduced | flat fee |
| Single | highest | — | — | — |
Age limits (infant, child) must be written clearly and counted on the departure date, not the booking date.
Mistakes that drive families away
- A “from” price nobody can get: the quad price shown when only doubles are left.
- Leaving the maths to the customer: a family of five has to guess whether a quad and a single beats a triple and a double.
- Hidden extras: visa, transfers or meals discovered in the quote.
- A grid as an image: unreadable on a phone and invisible to Google.
The right presentation
- A “from” price that matches a room actually available.
- The full grid, as text, on the package page.
- A calculator: the family enters adults, children and infants and sees the cheapest room split and the total.
- What is included and what is not, right next to the price.
Qafilo does this on every package page: it suggests the cheapest room split, works out the total and the deposit, and only shows rooms still on sale. Try it on the live demonstration.
Frequently asked questions
Can a quad room be mixed?
In practice, agencies do not put unrelated men and women in the same room. A family can share a room; otherwise rooms are made up by gender.
How is an infant counted?
An infant usually takes neither a bed nor a plane seat: they pay a reduced flat fee and do not count towards the room’s capacity. The age limit belongs in your terms and is checked on the departure date.
Should Hajj prices be shown before they are known?
No. Open pre-registration without a price and call families back when prices and places are confirmed. Showing a provisional price leads to disputes.
