I know its pretty obvious what it is but my mind can't come up with a succinct English equivalent that achieves the same effect as the German.
"Flugpauscahreise an/ab Frankfurt" is the sentence it appears in. It is about an all-inclusive tour of New Zealand.

: "Pauschal-" doesn't necessarily mean that a charter flight is involved! It might well be a regular flight.

: The asker is UK based. 'Vacation' is an exclusively US term. Hence the couple of 'agrees' from American colleagues posted here.

all-inclusive package
this is what came to my mind before seeing the other suggestions, so I just thought I'd mention it!

: no, a Pauschalreise is not necessarily an all-inclusive package, Pauschalreise = fligh + hotel
