Funjet Vacations

Funjet Vacations is a US-based tour operator specialising in all-inclusive vacation packages to Mexico, the Caribbean, Florida, Hawaii, and select Central America destinations. It is part of Apple Leisure Group, acquired by Hyatt Hotels Corporation in 2021. Funjet's charter departure network is strongest out of Midwest and South US hubs including Milwaukee, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Dallas.

Funjet Vacations does not run a consumer loyalty programme of its own since it operates as a packager rather than a hotel or airline. Points and elite credit accrue through the underlying hotel brand (World of Hyatt, Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors) or airline if the fare is ticketed as a scheduled carrier flight rather than as a charter. For Hyatt-owned Inclusive Collection resorts (Secrets, Dreams, Zoetry, Breathless, Now, Reflect, Sunscape, Alua, Vivid) booked via Funjet, World of Hyatt points and Elite Nights typically post. Verify eligibility per resort at booking.

Funjet Vacations runs promo windows around Black Friday (November 27, 2026), Cyber Monday (November 30, 2026), Memorial Day (May 25, 2026), Labor Day (September 7, 2026), and Wave Season (January to March). Additional Midwest-focused windows target the Chicago and Minneapolis winter escape market from October through February. Shoulder-season windows for Cancun and Punta Cana (September to early November) typically offer the deepest discounts outside promo weeks. Verify current deals on funjet.com before booking.

A standard Funjet Vacations package includes round-trip airfare (charter or scheduled carrier depending on route), hotel accommodations, and round-trip airport transfers to most Mexico and Caribbean destinations. All-inclusive resort stays add meals, drinks, non-motorised watersports, entertainment, and standard gratuities depending on the property. Not included: travel insurance (sold as add-on), resort fees on select non-inclusive properties, spa, motorised watersports, and premium dining. Verify inclusions per resort at booking.

Both Funjet Vacations and Apple Vacations are sister brands under Apple Leisure Group (Hyatt). Funjet leans heavier on Midwest and South US charter departures out of Milwaukee (MKE), Chicago (ORD, MDW), Minneapolis (MSP), Dallas (DFW), Kansas City (MCI), and St. Louis (STL). Apple Vacations leans heavier on Northeast and Mid-Atlantic charter departures out of Newark, Boston, Philadelphia, and BWI. On identical hotel and date, pricing often differs by charter routing and departure city. For a Midwest departure, Funjet typically has the deeper charter inventory. Cross-check both brand sites for the same resort. Both are cashback-eligible via ShopBack where applicable.

Funjet bundles charter flights into most packages, which typically produces the lowest total package price on Cancun and Punta Cana out of Midwest US departure cities like Milwaukee and Chicago. CheapCaribbean typically ticketed as scheduled carrier flights, which gives more schedule flexibility and airline mileage earning across any US metro, at a modest price premium. For a fixed-date family trip out of a Funjet charter hub, Funjet often wins on total price. For flexible dates or non-charter departures, CheapCaribbean often has broader inventory. Cross-check both. Both are cashback-eligible via ShopBack where applicable.

Funjet Vacations sells an optional Apple Leisure Group Travel Protection Plan that includes hurricane protection benefits: rebook without change fee, receive a future travel credit, or in some cases request a refund, if a hurricane warning is issued for the destination within specified windows of travel. Without the plan, standard supplier and airline cancellation terms apply, which are typically strict. Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, with peak activity mid-August through mid-October. For travel in that window, buying the protection plan at booking is the standard playbook.

Funjet Vacations charter and scheduled carrier routes typically depart from Milwaukee (MKE), Chicago (ORD, MDW), Minneapolis (MSP), Dallas (DFW), Kansas City (MCI), St. Louis (STL), Detroit (DTW), Indianapolis (IND), Cleveland (CLE), Cincinnati (CVG), Nashville (BNA), and select seasonal charter cities. Non-charter markets ticket as scheduled carrier flights (typically United, American, Delta, Southwest, or Sun Country depending on route). Verify departure city coverage for your target dates on funjet.com before locking.

Empty any pending Funjet Vacations booking cart, then click through fresh from the ShopBack Funjet Vacations merchant page to funjet.com. Complete the booking in the same browser session and confirm the reservation email. Avoid pasting unofficial third-party promo codes at checkout since they can break cashback tracking. Cashback tracks on the paid package total (excluding taxes, fees, and travel insurance in most cases). Rates and eligible booking types vary; see the current published rate on the ShopBack Funjet Vacations merchant page.

Yes. Any cancelled or refunded portion of a Funjet Vacations booking is voided from the ShopBack cashback total, since Funjet only pays commission on completed travel. If you cancel or the trip does not depart, pending cashback will not confirm.
