Inclusive return travel package...

_"Special" is an inclusive return travel package for two people..._

Does "inclusive return" mean "include the return trip as well"?

Can I re-phrase the sentence like this:

_"Special" is a "return inclusive" travel package for two people...?_

I guess my question is I am not very sure how to use the word "inclusive".

Thanks.

"inclusive return" is not a phrase there. It is automatically assumed that a "return travel package" must include the return trip. "inclusive" most probably means that the package includes meals, and possibly other extras, within the price paid.

However, thinking again, while "inclusive" in these kinds of contexts does often mean "including meals", I suppose here it may mean that the travel (both ways) is included. I think it is just impossible to say what is included without looking at the full text.
