What is the difference between a drifting ticket and an exploration drifting ticket?

The main difference between a Floating Ticket () and an Exploratory Expedition Ticket () is the purpose of the ticket.

A Floating Ticket, also known as a “flexible” or “open-Ended” ticket, allows passengers to travel on any date within a specific period (e.g., 14 days) without specifying exact dates. This type of ticket provides more flexibility in terms of scheduling and itinerary planning, but may come with limitations such as restricted changes, no refunds for cancellation, and potential seat allocation issues.

On the other hand, an Exploratory Expedition Ticket () permits passengers to travel on one specific date only. These tickets often require a confirmed booking well in advance, are generally non-refundable, and might have additional restrictions or requirements (e.g., advance check-in).

In summary:

• Floating Tickets: Flexible schedule, no fixed dates (but may come with limitations)
  
• Exploratory Expedition Tickets: One-specific date only, requires advanced booking ()
  

Keep in mind that ticket types can vary depending on the airline, route, and travel class. It’s always a good idea to double-check with your chosen carrier for more information before purchasing!
