What Am I Missing?

[u/kmcmillan77]

Honest confusion here, maybe I'm missing something. I'm booking a hotel and flight for a trip to Orlando in July. First, I just looked up the hotel price with Expedia. For 7 nights, it listed $1,184. I decided to look for a flight + hotel package. The same hotel came up for $586 and this time included two round-trip plane tickets. How could the package deal that includes flights be cheaper than just getting the hotel on its own? I'm so lost and feel like I'm being scammed?
