Flight + hotel: arrival and check-in that match
With overnight flights and long-haul trips, the arrival day often isn’t the departure day. This search thinks ahead.
In short
How do I search for flight and hotel so that arrival and check-in match?
Tell the AI search that you’re looking for a flight with a hotel. wemake.holiday first searches for flights, takes the most common arrival day of the connections found as check-in and then searches for hotels at your destination. If many flights land before 12 noon, you get a tip: rooms are usually only ready from 2–3 pm – if you want to move in straight away, book from the day before.
The problem
If you search for flight and hotel separately, you usually enter the departure day for the hotel. But with overnight flights and long-haul trips you only arrive the next day – and if you land early, the room isn’t ready yet.
- A paid hotel night while you’re still sitting on the plane
- Landed in the morning, but no room until the afternoon
- Flight and hotel searches run in separate windows
The solution
Flight + hotel connects both searches in three visible steps: search flights, take over the arrival day, search hotels.
- Check-in on the flights’ most common arrival day – in local time
- A note on how many connections arrive on that day
- Tip for early landings: book from the day before
- From 1280 pixels wide, flights and hotels side by side; narrower screens get a toggle
- If you don’t say, the search assumes 7 nights – change it in the Hotel tab

Good to know

- If there’s no flight result after 90 seconds, the AI’s estimate is used
- Search without an account, book with an account
Frequently asked questions about Flight + hotel
Is “Flight + hotel” a package holiday?
No. Flight and hotel are booked separately. wemake.holiday is an intermediary, not a tour operator.
What does the tip “book from the day before” mean?
If many connections land before 12 noon, the room usually wouldn’t be ready on arrival. With one extra night from the day before, it’s ready to move into. The search still starts from the arrival day.

Yes, in the Hotel tab. If you don’t say, the search assumes 7 nights.
