description The present invention relates in general to on-line transportation reservati on processing and, in particular, to a system and method for identifying and purchasing travel packages on-line. In one embodiment, package components ar e retrieved by a package server in response to a query from a consumer. A best package component is identified from the retrieved package components. Then a listing of packages matching the best package component is depicted for the consumer with real-time prices to the consumer. In another embodiment of the present invention, real-time prices corresponding to travel packages are related to published fares for package components. The relationship is calculated to maximize the real-time price relative to the price for publish ed fares for the travel components.
