travel, extended family & $$$
Is it OK to set a budget / cap when offering to pay for another person's airfare?
Re: travel, extended family & $$$
I try not to do this so the credit card it's booked under matches the name on the ticket. It's not a requirement but it can makes things tougher if there's a problem if they don't.
For the OP, I think it's fine to say you're willing to contribute X toward the ticket.
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

Will you be my relative????
I think I would do as other's said and just say "I'm willing to spend up to this amount"
I set aside a certain amount to pay for 2 people to fly here. The flights times within my budget aren't convenient for them & they are whining that they want other times that are more convenient for them. It's a difference of about 4 hours & will require one of them to take a day off from work. The flights they want are 3x the price of what I have offered them. They are welcome to book them but I'm sending them more than the amount I budgeted.
I guess I'm just annoyed b/c I'm trying to do a nice thing here & they are making me feel bad. How stupid is that?
