Because fares vary according to the route(s) chosen, the date(s) of travel and the length of the trip they are telling you that, when they have all of your information they will then determine the fare for you and it will be the fare that applies on the date that you make the actual arrangements (book your flight).

what is the meaning of the last sentence?
calculate


Explanation:
The references in this sentence are not very clear. The best I can make of it is they will calculate how much the fare will cost once they know the itinerary - the departure and destination airports. They won't know the cost until they know the actual dates of the flight.
