Your booking will be confirmed when we issue you with a booking confirmation with all the individual component parts of the itinerary showing the status confirmed. Please check your quote, booking confirmation and/or itinerary carefully and notify us immediately if you think any of the details are inaccurate. The names on your itinerary must match those on your passports otherwise you will be unable to travel and will incur amendment or cancellation charges.

SECTION 1- HOLIDAY PRICES

Travel & Stay Options & Prices: Holiday prices are influenced by a variety of factors particularly depending on the type of travel option you book. It is not possible to show the supplements and fares for all our different travel arrangements due the range of options available, and the prices displayed online are for guidance only. We can usually offer you a choice of travel options and dates/times of travel. You will also find our transport providers may offer a choice of seat classes or upgrade options – we will be able to confirm the current prices. Please note that our prices are based on bookings made by UK residents only. If you are not a UK Resident, you may be liable upon check-in/check-out for additional charges. We will not be liable for such additional charges.

Scheduled Flights: the prices we show for scheduled flights are based upon the lowest fare available. The airlines will limit the number of seats available at these prices by flight and date of travel. If the price shown online is not available when you book, we will offer you the next best seat price. The price includes current taxes (such as air passenger duty), aircraft insurance, security, fuel and other associated costs known at the time of booking. Our prices are affected by changes in these costs (see section ‘Extra Charges – before booking’). Airline Services: A number of airlines that we offer no longer include meals or luggage allowance within the basic price offered. Please ask us for specific details at the time of booking.

Airline Failure Protection: a charge made by us on all our holidays that include a flight so that in the event the Airline on which you are due to travel ceases to trade, we are able to arrange alternative flights (if available) or issue you with a refund, as appropriate.

Extra Charges – Before Booking: The prices shown are based on current airfares including fuel surcharges. Airlines reserve the right to change prices prior to ticketing and we must reserve the right to increase prices due to changes in fuel costs or taxes. We will advise you of the current price at the time of booking and we will absorb any increase of less than 2% of your holiday price. If costs rise of more than 8% you may choose to cancel and receive a full refund. For further information please refer to the booking conditions.

Departure Airport Taxes: Where applicable, all UK and overseas taxes have been included in your holiday price. The only overseas taxes we have not included are those that must be paid in the respective countries and cannot be collected prior to your UK departure. This will include tourism enhancement fees or some passenger service taxes.

Accommodation Supplements & Restrictions: Hotel prices are generally shown per person (based on two people sharing) in a standard twin or double room for the number of nights as stated in the accommodation description. The lowest available rates are displayed but please allow for supplements depending on the dates you stay. Prices will vary depending on, for example, peak periods, weekend/ midweek stays, local holidays, special events and the room type you select. Hoteliers may also require a minimum length of stay at certain times of the year. Please ask us for prices and any minimum stay restrictions applying on the day you book. We reserve the right to change prices. Prices can go up or down.

Local Charges: At some accommodation certain amenities may carry a local charge. Unless we have stated that a service or facility is ‘free’ in our accommodation descriptions, you may be asked to pay a charge. Here are a few examples of what you might expect to pay for locally, but always check first as there may be others. The examples include but are not limited to the types of local charges that may be payable:

Child Ages: Children must be under the age of 12 on the last day of their itinerary. For flights and package holidays, this means that they must be 11 years or under on the day they arrive at their final destination as presented in our travel itinerary. In most cases, the final destination will be the return back to the UK. For hotels, the child must be 11 years or under on the date of check out from the hotel to qualify as a child. Some hotels and airlines may offer child discounts for passengers up to the age of 17. If such a discount is offered, the passenger must be under the specified age limit on the day they arrive at their final destination as presented in our travel itinerary.

SECTION 2- BEFORE YOU TRAVEL

Scheduled Flights: Flights may be booked in conjunction with hotel and ground arrangements and flight times at the time of booking will be provisional. Final times will be advised with your travel documents shortly before the departure date.

Special Offers: Unless otherwise stated, special offers will only apply for certain periods of stay and at certain hotels. Conditions may apply to these offers and you will be advised at the time of booking. All offers are subject to availability and can be withdrawn at any time without notice. The offer validity period generally applies to completed stays within the date banding, but this may vary according to the individual hotel.

You must have proof of your recent marriage upon check in and may be required to pay additional costs if you fail to produce in.

Complimentary Room Upgrades: Where applicable and unless otherwise stated, offers of room upgrades shown online will be determined by availability when you travel and your room will be allocated on arrival at the accommodation.

Room upgrades are subject to availability on arrival.

SECTION 3 • GROUND ARRANGEMENTS

Accommodation: Every effort has been made to describe each hotel and standard room accommodation we feature as fairly and accurately as possible. We expect hoteliers to inform us of any major changes without delay and, where possible, we will inform you prior to departure. Meals as specified are included only where stated; all other arrangements are on a room only basis. Accommodation is generally priced per person based on twin share occupancy unless otherwise stated. Please ask our reservations staff at the time of booking for exact details. When we mention room types, in most cases you can expect to receive a room similar to the room type described. Please note however that whilst room categories in different hotels may have the same or similar names, the criteria for their classification is likely to differ, as these are the names the hotels use and they do not have standard definitions. Every effort has been made to ensure that the hotels and other accommodation featured online are correctly represented and will fulfil your expectations for quality and service. It is important to note that, where used; the star classification system is our own and does not conform to any internationally recognised system. The rating, in our opinion, reflects a true representation of the merits of each property.

Inevitably, standards will differ slightly between the many destinations which we feature.

Shared Accommodation: On most escorted and independent tours featured, a single room costs more.

Single Supplements: If a single person occupies a double room they will usually be asked to pay extra (a single supplement). Hotels price their rooms as doubles and they do not reduce the rates if they are occupied by a single person. The costs to the hotel of providing the room – heating, lighting, cleaning etc. are the same regardless of how many people occupy that room. The prices we charge reflect the costs of under occupancy of the rooms contracted to us by the hotel, we do not mark up these supplements.

Room Types Information: In all types of accommodation described below, if there are less than the maximum number of persons in your own party, the room type may contain less than the maximum number of beds indicated.

Hotel Rooms: A ‘double’ is a room with a double bed. A ‘twin’ is a room with two single beds. A ‘single’ or ‘twin for sole use’ is a room with one or two single beds. A double bed may be two single beds with double bedding. Single rooms are often smaller, may not have a balcony and may not be of the same general standard as normal twin rooms. Some hotels have rooms, which sleep up to 4 persons. Room layout may consist of up to 4 separate beds or a combination of double, twin, camp beds, sofa beds or rollaway beds. In some hotels 3rd and 4th beds may be only suitable for a child, but in other hotels there may be a reduction available if 4 adults share the room. Rooms for up to 4 persons may not be any larger than standard twin or double rooms so space is likely to limited and the room may be cramped. Where rooms do accept extra beds, some hotels may require an additional local charge to be paid which can vary by destination, e.g. rollaway bed in USA – please ask for details when you book. Though we will do our best to help, please note that we cannot guarantee the room configuration or type of beds that you will be provided with. Please note, for accommodation in some parts of the USA, especially Las Vegas, there must be at least one person aged 21 years old or above travelling on the booking and present when checking in. Please check requirements before booking.

Suites/Junior Suites/Villas: A Suite and Junior Suite usually but not always contain a lounge/living area. A Suite is likely to contain a separate sleeping area whereas a Junior Suite the sleeping area may not be completely separate. Room layouts can vary by destination. Our descriptions of Suites/Junior Suites and Villas usually state the number of persons who can occupy the room type (e.g. 2-4 persons) but please reconfirm this at the time of booking. Children paying less than the full cost do not count towards occupancy of the Suites/Junior Suites or Villas.

Child Reductions: Child reductions are usually available for children who are under the age of 12 on the date of travel. To obtain this reduction in cost, children must share a room with two full paying adults and use existing bedding within the room type booked. Where an additional bed is required, our reservations staff will be pleased to advise you of the additional cost. Rooms shared by adults and children are requested through our system and are therefore subject to availability.

Tour Itinerary: All our tours are, by their very nature, complex and include services from many different airlines, hotels and ground transportation companies. Due to the demand for these services, it is not always possible to guarantee particular airlines, flights, aircraft, ferries, trains and/or the hotels featured on a particular itinerary or departure date. It is with this in mind that we reserve the right to change any of the listed services and, if necessary, even modify the itinerary itself without prior notice. Where any alteration significantly changes your tour itinerary or tour dates, we will always make every effort to give as much advance notification as possible. Changes to tours may also be necessary once the tour has commenced, changes may include the sequence of visits being altered according to local conditions.

Meal Service: Meals as specified are included only where stated; all other arrangements are on a room only basis. Many properties are not necessarily used to catering for special diets and therefore if you have particular or specific requirements, you may find that the choice is limited. As a matter of courtesy to fellow guests, property owners may require diners adhere to a dress code whilst dining in their restaurants.

Hotel Check-In: Your room will normally be available for check-in from 3pm onwards, although sometimes check in times may be later than this. If you intend to arrive late due to a pre-arranged flight schedule or transfers, your hotel will need to be advised of your late check-in. On the day of departure you will be asked to check out before 12 noon and sometimes as early as 10am. Should you wish to request a late check out as you have a late afternoon or evening departure, the hotel may decide to apply additional charges. If you wish to pre-book and guarantee an additional half-day’s occupancy, please ask our reservations staff for details and prices. Customers may be required to leave a credit card deposit at hotel check in. If a credit card is not available then sometimes a cash deposit may be needed instead.

Air Conditioning: Some properties have individual air-conditioners located in either the bedroom or the living area, allowing you to adjust the atmosphere to your own liking. Some may operate centrally controlled air conditioning. This means it is operated at the discretion of the management, both in bedrooms and public areas. In such cases air conditioning may be restricted to particular times of the day and to the hottest months of the summer. It may be that only cool air is provided, not necessarily warm air as well. There may be a local charge for air conditioning in some rooms.

Accommodation Maintenance: Certain accommodation we offer is operational all year round. From time to time it will be necessary for certain facilities to be withdrawn for general maintenance purposes. Water and electricity supplies may be interrupted whilst this essential maintenance is undertaken.

Other Guests: We do not have exclusive use of the properties we offer. It is possible therefore, that there may be guests from other countries and of mixed age groups at your accommodation. Many hotels we feature do operate corporate conference facilities and there may be occasions where business meetings are taking place during your stay.

Hotel-Run Children’s Clubs: Standards and facilities at kids’ clubs we offer may vary. We are unable to accept responsibility for or give any guarantee for the standard of the facilities and qualifications of personnel at hotel run clubs. Kids’ club(s) may not meet standards of similar facilities in the UK and guests are strongly advised to remember that local standards and requirements in respect of such clubs may differ overseas and so you must ensure that you are completely satisfied with the facilities and staff providing this service before you enrol your child or children into the club and into the clubs’ care.

Gala Dinners: Many hotels require the compulsory purchase of gala dinners over the Christmas and New Year period as well as during other major local holidays. Please enquire when booking as to whether this requirement is applicable to your hotel.

Building Works: Building works and noise are sometimes unavoidable in certain developing areas, resorts and cities. Unfortunately, such development is not directly under our control, nor do we necessarily receive advance notice of when they begin. Should we be aware of any building works that may be considered to be a seriously detriment to your enjoyment, we will notify you as soon as possible. If possible, we will offer you the opportunity to transfer to an alternative hotel. Some public facilities at hotels, such as restaurants, bars and swimming pools, may only be available during mid-week or high season. We will, wherever possible, inform you if this is the case at the time of booking. In some destinations work is carried out by local/national authorities of which we have no control and cannot be held responsible.

All Inclusive: To help you choose your all-inclusive holiday we have highlighted what activities and facilities are included with each accommodation. This is based on information we have received from the hotel management, often dictated by the properties current seasons all-inclusive package. Please allow for some facilities or activities to be altered or substituted when you travel though, as hotels do regularly review and update what they offer as all inclusive.

• Identification: When you arrive at your hotel you are likely to be provided with some form of identification {a card, necklace, bracelet etc), which will have to be shown when ordering drinks, meals and other included Ensure you take care of this as a penalty charge is likely to be imposed if lost.
• Behaviour: Both ourselves and each of the all-inclusive hotels reserve the right to withdraw the identification facility of any guest(s) whose behaviour, or whose child/children’s behaviour is such that it is, in the opinion of the management, detrimental to the enjoyment of the other
• Alcohol: Having drinks freely available throughout the day can be a temptation to over-indulge. Please therefore consider your fellow guests (and your own health) while bearing in mind that hotel management have every right to refuse service to guests they believe to be intoxicated or under age (in accordance with local law).
• Bottled Mineral Water: In some all-inclusive hotels bottled mineral water does not form part of the ‘unlimited soft drinks service’.
• Locally Sourced Drinks/Snacks: Drinks included are generally only locally produced brands; cocktails, international and premium brands and fruit juices are not available unless The type and variety of snacks served (between meal times) will vary between hotels and resorts, and may be of a more traditional / local variety. What’s Not Included: Any additional facilities or services available may incur a charge. Consequently, not all bars/restaurants are available free of charge.
• Coming Home: Most hotels remove access to all inclusive facilities, including food and drink at the time of checkout, which is generally 12 noon on the day of

Safety & Hygiene: Your health and safety is of paramount concern to us, especially if children are involved. In addition to monitoring the hygiene and safety standards in all the hotel and apartments that we use, it is appropriate that we bring to your attention the need for you to be careful and to take necessary precautions whilst overseas and we need your help and cooperation with this. We would ask you to pay close attention to the following information, together with any other information we, our agents or suppliers, provide to you before you go, during your flight and when you arrive in your destination and at your hotel. It is most important that you familiarise yourself with this information and any other information you are given or on display. Swimming Pools & Water Features: Please make use of the pool shower facilities before swimming -this helps to prevent any potential infections and helps to keep the pool clean. Every pool is different and most hotels/ apartments do not employ lifeguards, so you are strongly recommended to familiarise yourself with the pool layout, identifying the deep and shallow ends before using. Do not use the pool after dark or when the pool is closed, even if the pool has underwater lights. You should never swim when you have been drinking alcohol. Whilst some of our hotels and apartments have water features, such as slides or flumes, which may appear in our photography, generally we do not recommend these are used. It is possible such features may have been replaced or removed since the photography was taken.

Overseas Safety Standards: Regrettably the safety standards and regulations overseas may not be of the same level that we enjoy in the UK. For instance, the design and height of balconies may differ. The setting and enforcement of local regulations is a matter for the Authorities of the country and the foreign supplier of the services concerned. You should familiarise yourself with fire procedures, including emergency exits in your accommodation, the swimming pool(s) area and any unfamiliar cooking appliances. If in doubt, ask your representative or an appropriate member of staff.

Children: Children must be supervised by you at all times, especially near water, on balconies or in unfamiliar buildings and surroundings.

Stomach Upsets: It is still a relatively common occurrence to suffer gastric illness when travelling abroad and being exposed to a different environment. There are many ways you can reduce the possibility of being affected, such as, not eating undercooked food, avoiding ice in drinks, ensuring you drink plenty of bottled water and avoid over exposure to the sun.

Out & About: Due to rough terrain and uneven surfaces, we recommend that you are extra careful and vigilant when visiting temples and other sites of interest and when crossing roads. Crimes against people and property are a fact of life throughout the world and you have the same responsibility for your own safety as you do at home. In some places the local police may not be very cooperative or interested when you report a theft or need insurance confirmation so always take care of your property. It is recommended not to approach cats and dogs and other animals as these may carry the rabies disease which can be passed on through bites and scratches. Please exercise caution before entering the sea, as the seabed is not even and may change in depth. The sea is capable of springing surprises and we have not inspected the beach or seabed for its safety.

Luggage Allowance: Please ensure that luggage taken with you is in good condition. We will advise you of the luggage allowance applicable to your flight at the time of booking, this will be confirmed on your e-ticket. Many airlines charge extra for baggage. Hand Luggage can normally be carried, however please check with your carrier prior to travel. For further information regarding your allowances you can contact the airline with which you are travelling. Due to increase security at airports please ensure you are familiar with what is allowed in your luggage please check www.caa.co.uk.

Flight Routing: A direct flight may touch down en-route for re-fuelling, or to pick up and/ or drop off passengers. In these instances you are not normally required to disembark and the flight is still considered to be a direct flight – with the exception of the USA where you will disembark and clear customs at your first point of entry. A non-direct flight may require a change of aircraft en-route while a non-stop flight will take you directly to your final destination airport without stopping.

Non-Smoking Policies

• Airlines: All of the airlines featured do not permit smoking on their
• Airports: Some airports also have non-smoking policies; however some do provide designated smoking areas. Hotels: Many of the hotels featured have non-smoking rooms. If you require a non-smoking room, please make your request at the time of booking. These requests cannot be guaranteed.

SECTION 5 – DRIVING

Car Hire Info: Driving standards in some countries may not be as high as you experience in the UK and rental policies can differ. If you do hire a car during your holiday we recommend that you select reputable companies, preferably those who provide assistance cover in case of breakdown or emergency. JAM Travel offers car hire services in many countries, please ask for information.

Unused Services: We do not provide refunds for any unused pre-booked services. Any changes you may need to make to your arrangements during your holiday may incur additional charges. If car hire is booked subsequently to booking your package holiday this will not form part of your package and therefore will not be covered under the package rules and regulations.

SECTION 6-MEDICAL AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS

Health Precautions: Health facilities, hygiene and disease risks vary worldwide. You should take health advice about your specific needs as early as possible. Sources of information include the following websites: www.fco.gov.uk, www.hpa.org.uk and www.nathnac.org or your General Practitioner or a specialist clinic. If you are visiting a European Union (EU) country you should obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) and take it with you when you travel. The EHIC can be obtained free of charge by completing an application form available from main Post Offices and from www.dh.gov.uk/travellers. Please note, the EHIC is in addition to Travel Insurance, not instead of it.

Travellers with Reduced Mobility

• Overseas Accommodation and Overseas Transport Arrangements: Some overseas accommodation, overseas transport (including transfers) and other holiday services provided overseas are not equipped to cater for the needs of persons with reduced mobility. Furthermore the natural terrain and the layout of some resorts can sometimes make life difficult for wheelchair It is therefore important, if you have any disability, that the appropriate enquiries are made about the suitability of particular accommodation, resorts, transport and services, and that you are fully satisfied you have made the correct choice before you book and confirm your holiday. We cannot be held responsible if you fail to tell us about special needs/requirements that will affect your holiday experience and this means we will not compensate you.
• At the Airport & Onboard Your Flight: If you have a disability, reduced mobility or special need that you require assistance with, either at the airport or onboard the aircraft please let us know as soon as possible. We would like to know if you have a pre-existing medical condition or recent injury, so that we can answer any questions and ensure there are no concerns about your fitness to fly.
• Travelling when Pregnant: Most airlines enforce strict regulations for expectant mothers. Airlines generally allow expectant mothers to travel anytime up to 24 to 36 weeks into their pregnancy with a covering note from their GP. We strongly advise you to consult your local GP and airline concerned if you plan to travel whilst

6. The price you pay: We reserve the right to amend the price of unsold holiday arrangements at any time and correct errors in the prices of confirmed The price of your confirmed arrangements is subject to variations which occur solely as a direct consequence of changes in:-

has been made. The cancellation charge of flight only bookings will be 100% of the cost of the booking unless otherwise stated. Please ensure that you are certain of the fees applicable to your booking by asking us before proceeding to book your arrangements. Air tickets returned to us for a refund are subject to an administration fee of £50 per ticket. Refunds will not be paid by us until they have been received by us from the relevant airline or consolidator.

9. Charges in the event of a change: In the event we can meet your requested change, you will have to pay £50 per person per change as well as any applicable rate changes or extra costs incurred as well as any costs incurred by ourselves and any costs or charges incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers. Note: Certain arrangements may not be amended after they have been confirmed and any alteration or cancellation could incur a charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements in addition to the charges above.
10. Changes and cancellation by us: Where we refer to a ‘price reduction’ in this clause, we mean that we will give you an appropriate reduction in the price you paid for the arrangements affected for any period during which there was lack of conformity, (unless that lack of conformity is attributable to you). Where we refer to ‘compensation’, we will pay you appropriate compensation without undue delay for any damage which you sustain as a result of any lack of conformity subject to the limitations and exclusions in section B of clause 12.
11. Changes & cancellations to package arrangements before: Most changes will be insignificant and we reserve the right to make We will have no other responsibilities to you in respect of any insignificant changes. Examples of “insignificant changes” made before departure include, but are not limited to the following:

A change of outward departure time or overall length of your arrangements of twelve hours or less.

A change of accommodation to another of the same standard or classification.

Occasionally we may have to make a significant change to your confirmed arrangements and we reserve the right to do so. A significant change is one where we significantly alter any essential element of your arrangements (other than the price) owing to circumstances beyond our control. Examples of “significant changes” made before departure include the following:

1. A change of location for the whole or a significant part of your time
2. A change of accommodation to that of a lower standard or classification for the whole or a

1. the price of the carriage of passengers resulting from the cost of fuel or other power sources; or
2. the level of taxes or fees on your confirmed arrangements imposed by third parties not directly involved in the performance of the package, including, but not limited to, tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports. Price variations will be calculated by applying the cost differential we experience as a result of the above Prices may go up or down and we will notify you about any variation by sending you a calculation explaining the variation no less than 20 days before you are due to depart.

If your arrangements are a package, and if that means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your arrangements (excluding any insurance premiums, amendment charges and/or additional services), we will offer you the options in clause 8. In respect of Packages, we will absorb, and you will not be charged for, any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. If prices go down as a result of the above factors, we will make a reflective refund, but we will also deduct our administrative expenses from what is owed to you and this may extinguish the value of the refund due. Also, note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on price due to contractual protections in place.

7. Changes and cancellations by you: If you wish to make any changes to your arrangements after they have been confirmed, including if you wish to cancel all or some of them, you must inform us as soon as possible. Your notice requesting a change or cancellation will only take effect when it is received in writing by us at our offices and will be effective from the date on which we receive it. We can’t guarantee that changes can be met, although we will do our best to assist. Since we incur costs in cancelling or changing your arrangements, all such changes and cancellations will be subject to the charges below. Where we are unable to assist with making a

requested change and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking, we will treat this as a cancellation by you. You may cancel any package arrangements prior to their commencement {following the process outlined above) in the event that

1. circumstances amounting to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances (as set out in clause 9) are occurring at the place where your arrangements are due to be performed or its immediate vicinity; b. those circumstances make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination, and;
2. the performance of your arrangements will be significantly affected by those unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances. We will refer to and take into consideration Foreign and Commonwealth Office guidance when determining whether your booking is affected. In this event, you will receive a refund without undue delay of any payments made but this will be the maximum extent of our liability and we regret we cannot meet any other expenses or losses you may incur as a result.

If any member of your party is prevented from travelling, that person(s) may transfer their place to someone else {introduced by you and satisfying all the conditions applicable to the arrangements, including an agreement to these booking conditions) providing we are notified in writing not less than seven days before departure and you pay an amendment fee and meet all costs and charges incurred by us and/or incurred or imposed by us or any of our suppliers. Both you and the person to whom you would like to transfer your arrangements shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of any balance due and for any additional fees, charges or other costs arising from the transfer. If you are unable to find a replacement, cancellation charges as set out below will apply in order to cover our estimated costs. Otherwise, no refunds will be given for passengers not travelling or for unused services. For flight or flight inclusive bookings, most airlines do not permit name changes after tickets have been issued for any reason, you will have to pay the full cost of an alternative flight {if available) if you wish to transfer after tickets have been issued. For other travel services, many suppliers will not allow name changes and you may have to pay the full cost of the service in the event of a name change. Please note that where an outbound portion of your flight coupon is not used, the return sector will be automatically cancelled by the airline and the entire ticket will be classed as void. No automatic right to any refund exists for such part-used tickets.

8. Charges in the event of a cancellation: If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim the charges below. We will deduct the cancellation charge(s) from any monies you have already paid to us.
9. Packages and Accommodation-only: In order to cover our expected losses from the cancellation of the booking there is a set scale of charges which must be paid by you if you or anyone travelling with you cancels. Note: These cancellation charges apply to all bookings, except in circumstances where a booking includes items or services where our suppliers own cancellation charges exceed those shown In these circumstances any additional cancellation charges will be advised at the time of booking. Please ensure you are certain of the fees applicable to your booking by asking us before proceeding to book your arrangements.

*Accommodation Only: Accommodation booked to coincide with peak periods or special events or when we negotiate special offer rates with our accommodation providers may be non-refundable once booked. Where this applies, you will be advised at the time of booking. In the event of cancellation by some but not all party members, additional charges may be payable (for example, where a twin or double room will only be occupied by one person). Any such additional charges must be paid at the time of cancellation or with the balance of the cost of the arrangements as advised.

# If at the point of cancellation, the full deposit has not been paid due to the deposit being paid in instalments you will then be required to pay the full deposit due.

1. All Other Services and Travel Arrangements including Flight-only: If you need to cancel you must contact Cancellation charges vary depending upon the services booked and will be higher the later you cancel. A minimum cancellation fee of £50 will apply regardless of the value of the service cancelled. In some cases it may not be possible to offer any refunds for certain services such as air tickets once a booking significant part of your time away.

3. A significant change to your itinerary such as missing out one or more destination entirely.

6. agreeing to the changed arrangements in the case of a significant change,
7. accepting the cancellation or terminating the contract for the arrangements and receiving a refund (without undue delay) of all monies paid; or

• accepting an offer of alternative arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available.

(In the event that any proposed change or alternative offered results in a reduction or increase in the price you have agreed to pay or an increase or decrease in the quality of arrangements we have agreed to provide, we will also notify you of any price reduction or additional amount due).

You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer. If you fail to do so, we will contact you again, re- iterating the above choices and sums payable or refundable and if you again fail to respond within 7 days, we may terminate the contract and refund all payments made by you without undue delay.

12. Compensation: Subject to the exceptions detailed below and where your arrangements are a package, we will, where appropriate, pay you reasonable compensation, subject to the limitations and exclusions in section B of clause 12.

3. Changes & cancelations to package arrangements after departure: If we become unable to provide a significant proportion of your package arrangements after you have departed, we will try to offer you suitable alternative arrangements of, where possible, equivalent or higher quality than those specified in the contract. If the alternative arrangements we make are of a lower quality than those you originally booked, we will make a price reduction. Where our original agreement included return transport we will also provide you with equivalent transport back to your place of departure without undue delay or additional cost. You may reject the proposed alternative arrangements only if they are not comparable to what we originally promised to provide or if the price reduction we offer is inadequate. Where we are unable to make suitable alternative arrangements or you reject the proposed alternative arrangements in accordance with this clause, where appropriate and only where your arrangements are a package, we will pay you compensation subject to the limitations and exclusions in clause 19. Where we are unable to ensure your return from a package as agreed because of unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances defined in clause 15, we will bear the cost of necessary accommodation if possible in an equivalent category for a period not exceeding
4. 3 nights per traveller (exceptions apply in respect of persons with reduced mobility and people travelling with them, pregnant women and unaccompanied minors, as well as persons in need of specific medical assistance, provided that we have been notified of their particular needs at least 48 hours before the start of the package); or
5. where a different period is specified in any passenger rights legislation applicable to the relevant means of transport for your return, for the period specified in that

Flights: In accordance with EU Directive (EC) No 2111/2005 Article 9, we are required to bring to your attention the existence of a “Community list” which contains details of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban with the EU Community. The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/list_en.htm.

In accordance with EU Regulations we are required to advise you of the carrier(s) (or, if the carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier{s) at the time of booking, we shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. We are not always in a position at the time of booking to confirm the aircraft type and flight timings which will be used in connection with your flight. The flight timings and types of aircraft shown on our website, in this brochure and detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. The latest timings will be shown on your tickets. You must accordingly check your tickets very carefully immediately on receipt to ensure you have the correct flight times. It is possible that flight times may be changed even after tickets have been dispatched – we will contact you as soon as possible if this occurs, but in any event we advise you to check flight times with the airline 24 hours prior to departure. Please reconfirm your flight times for your return journey in case of any change after you have made your outbound journey. Any change in the identity of the carrier, flight timings, and/or aircraft type will not entitle you to cancel or change to other arrangements without paying our normal charges except where specified in these conditions. If the carrier with whom you have a confirmed reservation becomes subject to an operating ban as above as a result of which we/ the carrier are unable to offer you a suitable alternative the provisions of clause 8 (Changes and cancellation by us) will apply.

Where applicable, under the Denied Boarding Regulation (EU 261/2004), if you have been denied boarding, your flight has been cancelled or it has been significantly delayed, it is the airline’s duty to look after you. This means providing food, drinks, and some communications.

If you are delayed overnight, this also means a hotel and travel to and from it. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. We have no liability to you in these circumstances whatsoever and your claim for this assistance and any compensation must be made directly to the airline. Liability of an airline under EU 261/2004 will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday price from us. If, for any reason, you do not claim against the airline and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you, make a complete assignment to us of the rights you have against the airline in relation to the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment.

25. Delay: We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances as set out in clause 9. A delay to or cancellation of your transport service does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your transport. However, you may be entitled to claim under the delay section of your travel insurance 26. Booking Condition Amendments and Right to Refuse Travel Arrangements: We reserve the right to add, withdraw and/or amend any of our Booking Conditions at any time and without notice and furthermore reserve the right to refuse any booking.
26. Severability: If any provision of this agreement is found by any court or authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions of the agreement, which shall remain in force and effect.

3. We reserve the right to make changes to the prices advertised before your booking is confirmed. After booking, any changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, duties, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may increase or decrease. We will absorb any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements, you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges and insurance. If you wish to cancel you must do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. If the price of your holiday falls by more than 2% we will offer an appropriate refund. We provide full financial protection for you through our ATOL licence number 2933. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the CAA will ensure that you are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking. For further information visit www.atol.org.uk.

Cancellation

4. To cancel your holiday, you must contact us in writing, your cancellation will only be effective on the day it is received in writing at our offices and the following charges will apply:

More than 71 days before departure: Loss of deposit, and airfare if advised at the time of booking

70-45 days:

50%

44-30 days:

75%

Les than 30 days:

100%

Refunds, where applicable, are subject to the immediate return of all travel documents, such as tickets and vouchers. Unused services such as certain airfares partially used car rental or accommodation, are non refundable. Many air tickets have no refund value whatsoever and therefore airlines may impose 100% cancellation charges from the time of booking. We recommend that you take out appropriate travel insurance to cover such charges as you may be able to claim back the cancellation fees if the cancellation is covered by a suitable insurance policy.

Amendments

5. Should you wish to change any of the details of your booking after we have confirmed it, we will do our best to help, however we may not always be able to meet your request and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. Requests for changes should be made by the person who made the booking. Whenever requested changes are possible, the total itinerary costs will be recalculated, taking account into any seasonal flight or occupancy rates, cancellation charges or other supplements and a revised invoice will be issued. Additionally we will charge you £50 per person, per change up to a maximum of £100 per booking. Please note that changes to flights are will usually be treated as cancellations by airlines. Some flights have conditions which mean no changes can be made after we have confirmed the booking without you having to pay the full cost of the tickets originally booked. Where we are unable to assist you and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking we will treat this as a cancellation by you and cancellation fees will be payable.

6. On occasion it may be necessary to amend or cancel your arrangements, which we reserve the right to do at any time. ‘Minor’ changes, if they occur, may not necessarily be advised and will not qualify for compensation. In the case of ’significant changes’ we will inform you as soon as is reasonably possible, if there is time before your departure. A major change is one that we make to your arrangements before departure, such as changing your departure airport (except between London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Luton and Stansted) dependent upon particular circumstances, or a difference of more than 12 hours in departure times, or a change in your cruise ship, resort area or an offer of a lower classification cabin or hotel accommodation. In these cases you have a choice of:

a) accepting the changed arrangements as notified to you. b) Transferring to an alternative booking if we are able to offer one (please note that the price may differ from the original booking.) or c) Cancelling your arrangements and receiving a full refund. You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer of the alternative booking arrangements. If you fail to do so we will assume that you have chosen to accept the alternative booking arrangements.

In no case, except for reasons of force majeure or failure on your part to pay the final balance, will we cancel your booking less than 10 weeks before departure. If, however, your booking is cancelled, for example because the cruise is no longer operating less than 10 weeks before departure, compensation will be payable as set out below. In addition, we will offer alternative arrangements of a comparable standard if available, or return all monies paid.

The above options are not available where any change is minor or where the changes or cancellation by us arises out of alterations to the confirmed booking requested by you.

Flights

7. We will provide details of the relevant airline routing and intermediate stops as soon as possible, usually on the confirmation invoice but any changes to the actual airline or routing are considered to be a minor change and if this happens, you will not be entitled to cancel without penalty nor will compensation be paid. As between you and any airline, the airline’s standard conditions of carriage will apply which may limit the airline’s liability to you in certain circumstances. Airlines rescheduling, flight timings and aircraft are subject to such matters as regulatory control, maintenance requirements, weather conditions and the ability of passengers to check in on time. In the event of delay, responsibility for making special arrangements will rest with the airline concerned and “Your Florida Holiday” will not be in a position to assist you. In extreme cases you may be entitled to compensation under your insurance policy. You are strongly recommended to contact the airline before commencing each flight to reconfirm its departure time. Please note that a flight described as “direct” will not necessarily be non-stop. All departure/arrival times are provided by the airlines concerned and are estimates only. They may change due to air traffic control restrictions, weather conditions, operational/maintenance requirements and the requirement for passengers to check in on time. We cannot be held liable if there is any change to a departure/ arrival time previously given to you or shown on your ticket. It is for this reason that all clients are required to reconfirm their flights, with the airline, 72 hours prior to departure.

We are also unable to make any special arrangements for the client if the client is delayed; these matters are in the sole discretion of the airline concerned. When you receive your tickets and travel documents you should check them carefully as times may have changed since you made your booking. You must check in at least two hours before the stated departure time. We will not be liable for any costs you have to pay if you fail to meet this deadline.

8. We cannot accept liability or pay compensation where the performance and/or prompt performance of our contractual obligations to you is prevented by or affected by “force majeure”. In these Booking Conditions “force majeure” means any event which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Such events include but are not limited to cancellation of a special event by the organisers, industrial disputes, terrorist activity, natural, nuclear, chemical or biological disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, and all similar events outside our control.

Passport & Visa

*Also see Important Information, link at the bottom of this page

9. It is your responsibility to fulfill the passport, visa and other immigration requirements applicable to your itinerary. We can provide general information about the passport and visa requirements for your trip. Your specific passport and visa requirements and other immigration requirements for you and your party are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We can provide general information about any health formalities required for your trip but you should check with your own doctor for your own specific circumstances. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel, or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. You agree to indemnify us in relation to any costs which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities.

Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. If your passport is in its final year, you should check with the Embassy of the country you are visiting. Special conditions apply for travel to the USA, and all passengers must have individual machine readable passports. Please check http://www.usembassy.org.uk .

Complaints

10. If you have a problem during your holiday, please inform the relevant supplier (e.g. your air line or hotelier) or our local agent/representative immediately who will endeavour to put things right, failing this please call us on 0303 003 0111. If your complaint is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of your return home by writing to our Customer Relations Department Major Travel Plc Building 3, 2nd Floor, The Exchange, Brent Cross Gardens, London NW4 3RJ, giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. We aim to respond as quickly as possible but as it may be necessary to contact suppliers overseas, we will advise you of any expected delays. If you fail to follow this simple procedure we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under this contract.

Our liability to you

11. (a) Subject to these terms, we accept responsibility for ensuring that your travel arrangements, which you book with us, are supplied as described on our website or in our brochures. If, after departure, any parts of your travel arrangements are not provided as promised, due to the fault of our employees, agents or suppliers, acting in the course of their employment, we will pay you appropriate compensation, if this has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements. However, our liability in all cases shall be limited to a maximum of twice the value of the element not supplied excluding flights. The level of such compensation will take into account all relevant factors including the invoice price of the tour, any steps it was reasonable for you to take to take to minimise the inconvenience or damage suffered and the extent to which the deficiency or improper performance can have affected your enjoyment of the package.

(b) Please note that we will not be liable for any injury, illness, or death or consequent losses suffered by you or any member of your party, unless you are able to prove that such injury or illness was caused by lack of reasonable care and skill on the part of ourselves or our suppliers in the performance of our obligations under our contract with you. It is a condition of the payment of compensation that you notify us of any complaint or claim as soon as possible and , assign to us any rights that you may have against any third party in connection with your claim. You must co-operate with us and our insurers in this regard. If you suffer a personal injury, death or serious difficulties as the result of an activity which does not form part of the package you booked with us – including for example any additional services or facilities provided to you by a cruise line, hotel or any other supplier which was not included as part of the original contract between us – we will not be liable to pay you any compensation but will offer you such advice and guidance as is reasonable in all the circumstances provided we are advised of the incident within 30 days of the occurrence. We will not be responsible where you do not enjoy the holiday or suffer any other problems because of a reason which you did not make us aware of when the holiday was booked.

(c) And in all claims of whatever nature we will not be liable where the alleged loss or damage results from the fault of the person(s) affected or any members(s) of their party,. the fault of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday or an event or circumstances which we or the supplier of the service(s) in question could not have predicted or avoided even after taking all reasonable care . However we will always aim to offer assistance to you even in those cases where we have no liability to you.

Please note that the extent of our liability will in all cases be limited as if we were carriers under the appropriate conventions, such as the Warsaw and Montreal Conventions (international travel by air)and the Athens Convention (with respect to sea travel); You can ask for copies of these Conventions from our offices. In addition, you agree that the operating carrier or transport company’s own ‘Conditions of Carriage’ will apply to you on that journey. When arranging transportation for you, we rely on the terms and conditions contained within these international conventions and those ‘Conditions of Carriage’. You acknowledge that all of the terms and conditions contained in those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ form part of your contract with us, as well as with the transport company and that those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ shall be deemed to be included by reference into this contract.

The promises we give to you regarding the services we have agreed to provide or arrange as part of the contract, and the laws and regulations of the country in which your claim or complaint occurred, shall be used as the basis for ascertaining whether or not the services in question have been properly provided. If the services in question which caused the claim or complaint complied with the local laws and regulations applicable to those services at that time, the services shall be treated as having been properly provided. Such shall be the case even if the services did not comply with the laws and regulations of the UK which would have applied if those services had been provided in the UK.

You can ask for copies of the transport companies’ contractual terms, or the international conventions, from our offices at. Major Travel Plc. Registered office Building 3, 2nd Floor, The Exchange, Brent Cross Gardens, London NW4 3RJ

Special requests

12. If you have any special requests for adjacent cabins or non-smoking rooms or a special diet, these should be made at the time of booking. We have no direct control over the provision of many services, such as specific cabin or seat numbers and whilst making every effort to obtain such facilities, we cannot guarantee their provision and such requests form no part of the contract.

Behaviour

13. If you are forced to return home early, we cannot refund the cost of any services you have not used, but you may be covered by your travel insurance. All guests are expected to conduct themselves in an acceptable manner and not to disrupt the enjoyment of other guests. If, in our opinion or in the opinion of any other person in authority, your behaviour or that of any member of your party is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any of our other guests or any third party or damage to property, we reserve the right to terminate your booking arrangements with us immediately. In the event of such termination our liability to you and/or your party will cease and you and/or your party will be required to leave your accommodation or other service immediately. We will have no further obligations to you and/or your party.

Travelling with medical requirements

14. If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your holiday, please provide us with full details before you confirm your booking so that we can advise as to the suitability of your chosen arrangements. This is particularly important for cruise arrangements where certain ports may have limited or no facilities for those using a wheelchair or those who suffer from limited mobility.

15. Where we only act as an agent for the airline, we will pass on their confirmation invoice as soon as it is received. Please check to ensure there are no errors. Our liability in this case is limited to situations of proven negligence on our part, any other claims must be directed to the airline concerned with whom you will be in contract.

Data Protection

16. For the purposes of the Data Protection Act 1998 we are a data controller. In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements we need to collect certain personal details from you. These will include, where applicable, the names and addresses of party’s members, credit/debit card or other payment details and special requirements such as those relating to any disability or medical condition which may affect the chosen holiday arrangements and any dietary restrictions which may disclose your religious beliefs. If we need any other personal details, we will tell you before we obtain them from you. We must pass on your personal details to the companies and organisations who need to know them so that your holiday can be provided (for example your airline, hotels, transport companies, credit/debit company or bank). The information may also be provided to public authorities such as customs/immigration if required by them, or as required by law. Where your travel arrangements are to take place outside the European Economic Area, (EEA), controls on data protection in your destination may not be as strong as the legal requirements in this country. We will not however, pass any information on to any company and/or organisation not responsible for providing any part of your travel arrangements. Where you provide us with personal details relating to any special requirements such as those mentioned above, you consent to this information being passed onto any organisation or companies responsible for any part of your travel arrangements whether in the EEA or not.

17. These Booking Conditions and any contract to which they apply are governed in all respects by English law. Any dispute, claim or other matter which arises out of or in connection with your contract or booking will be dealt with by the Courts of England and Wales.
