• Enable round trip pricing: If you offer round trip pricing between the two points, i.e. A → B, B → A, check this box. Round trip pricing could offer a discount than the cost of two one-way bookings. 
• Calculate using individual pax: Check this box, if your pricing differs on a sliding scale based on the number of passengers booking at once. More information on sliding pricing can be found in this article. 
• All Surplus Fees to be included in taxation calculations: Surplus fees can be added onto the base price of your service, as an example for fuel surcharges. If surplus fees should include tax, check this box.
