Couple pricing across the 2028 storm chasing schedule is not identical for every package. Most six-day tours list the same shared-room rate, while Tour 4 and the longer Tour 5A use higher figures because of their timing or duration.
The lower couples rate applies when two confirmed travelers share one hotel room during the active tour. Both guests still need separate seats in the chase vehicle, and two seats must be added to the same booking cart for the discount to appear automatically.
Most Six-Day Tours Use the Same Couple Rate
Tours 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 each list a US$2,800 single-traveler rate and a US$2,600 couples rate.
These packages all provide six chase days and five hotel nights during the active tour. Their dates and seasonal focus differ, but the listed accommodation-related discount remains the same.
The shared-room rate is available because two travelers use one hotel room while still receiving separate chase seats and the complete guided experience.
Tour 4 Has a Higher Listed Rate
Tour 4 is the main six-day exception. It lists US$2,900 for a single traveler and US$2,700 for couples sharing a hotel room.
Its May 21–26 chase dates place it within a highly regarded late-May window. The operator describes this part of the season as one of its strongest periods for severe-weather opportunities.
The higher listed rate does not change the booking process. Two travelers must still add two seats to the same cart and confirm that the discount appears before completing payment.
Tour 5A Costs More Because It Is Longer
Tour 5A lists a US$4,700 single rate and a US$4,500 couples rate.
The package includes ten chase days and nine hotel nights during the active tour, compared with six chase days and five hotel nights on the standard packages.
Its higher price reflects the longer schedule and four additional chase days. Couples considering Tour 5A should compare the complete cost, including more meals, longer travel time and additional days away from work.

The Discount Does Not Reduce Tour Services
Sharing one hotel room does not mean that two travelers share one chase seat or receive fewer services.
Each guest still receives:
-
An individual place in the chase vehicle
-
A guaranteed window seat
-
Transportation and fuel
-
Forecast experts, guides and drivers
-
Weather forecast briefings
-
Hotel accommodation during the active tour
-
Airport-transfer arrangements
-
An exclusive tour shirt
The price difference is mainly connected with hotel occupancy rather than a reduced chase experience.
Two Seats Must Be Booked Together
The website applies the discount when two tour seats for the same package are placed in one cart.
Travelers should confirm:
-
The correct 2028 package
-
Two seats in the cart
-
Matching dates for both guests
-
The listed couples discount
-
The deposit or full-payment amount
-
Both traveler names and contact details
Two separate single bookings may not activate the shared-room discount automatically.
Couples Must Arrange Their Own Roommate
The operator does not promise to match solo travelers with another participant. Guests must arrange their own companion or roommate before choosing the lower rate.
Both travelers should agree on room sharing, payment responsibilities, flights and outside hotel nights before booking.
They should also ask how the price may change if one-person later cancels. The public page does not explain every possible cancellation scenario involving a shared-room booking.
Budget Beyond the Listed Couple Rate
The couples price covers the selected tour package, but it does not represent the complete holiday budget.
Travelers should also plan for flights to Wichita, meals, insurance, baggage charges, personal purchases and any hotel nights outside the active chase.
The longer Tour 5A may create higher surrounding costs because it requires more travel days and additional meals.
Conclusion
Couple prices vary across the 2028 schedule mainly because Tour 4 uses a slightly higher six-day rate and Tour 5A provides a much longer ten-day experience.
Most six-day packages list a US$2,600 couples rate, while Tour 4 lists US$2,700 and Tour 5A lists US$4,500.
Two travelers must book the same package together, share one hotel room and confirm the automatic checkout discount. Reviewing the final total and wider travel expenses before payment helps couples choose the package that best fits their dates and budget.
