Flights and Flight times
Passports and Visa It is your sole responsibility to ensure that all passengers including children and infants are in possession of a valid Passports and Visa’s. The Visa Waiver Program (VWP) enables Irish citizens to travel to the U.S. for tourism or business for 90 days or less without obtaining a U.S. visa. If you do not hold an Irish passport, you must check with the applicable embassies of the countries you will be visiting during your holidays. Passports must be valid for at least 6 months after your expected return date to Ireland. Irish Passport holders do not need a visa if entering Canada for tourism purposes. All that is required is a valid passport. A stay of up to six months is permitted but you cannot work during this time. Machine Readable Passports (MRP): From 26th October 2004 passengers entering and transiting the United States under the VWP are required to hold a machine-readable passport (MRP). If any person who is a citizen of a VWP (i.e. Irish citizens/holders of Irish passports) does not have a MRP, then they will need to obtain a U.S. non-immigrant visa prior to departure. Children: Over 16 years of age: must hold a valid MRP. Under 16 years of age: Children who have previously been added to a parent’s passport will also be required to have an MRP in their own name. Please note that Passports take between at least 4-6 weeks to secure, so applications for passports, including applications to exchange a non-MRP for a MRP should be made in advance.
When you receive your travel documents, please check the flight numbers and timings on your tickets. Any flight route or timings shown in our brochure are for guidance only and may have changed. Check-in for international flights is 3 hours prior to departure. Some direct flights have an en-routed stopover for technical or operational reasons. Customs and immigration can usually be cleared at your first point of entry to the United States. Passengers travelling from Dublin or Shannon can normally clear US Immigration before your departure from Ireland. There are occasions, completely beyond our control, when a flight is delayed and Sunway Holidays do not have any liability for delays that may arise. Such changes will not be regarded as a significant change and you will not be entitled to cancel you holiday without paying the appropriate cancellation charge. Reconfirmation of Flight Times: Customers must reconfirm their return flight at least 24 hours prior to departure. Contact details included in travel documents.
Internal flights within the US & Canada Please note, if you are travelling on an internal flight within the US & Canadafor example from San Francisco to Los Angeles, the airline may charge domestic baggage fees. This varies per airline. Your travel documents, issued nearer your departure date, will list your baggage allowance for each flight. Please ask your sales agent for more details. Please note on the international portion of the flight (for example Dublin to New York), you will not be charged baggage fees unless you have exceeded your baggage allowance.
Fitness to Fly
It is your responsibility to ensure that exactly the same name (including initials) appears on your ticket as in your passport. If there is any difference, you may be refused entry onto your flight. We regret we cannot accept any liability if you are refused entry onto any flight or into any country or otherwise suffer any difficulties or incur any costs as a result of not having an acceptable passport or any required visa(s). Passengers, who have previously been refused a US visa, should contact the US embassy. Those intending to re-enter during their vacation i.e. on a coach tour into Canada or cruising the Caribbean or Mexico should ensure on doing Immigration that Multiple Entry is stamped on their passport.
Conditions such as Deep Vein Thrombosis may be associated with any form of long distance travel whether by air, car, coach or train. In particular, Longhaul air flights (flight lasting longer than 5 hours) where passengers remain immobile in the seated position for long periods of time may be associated with an increased risk. Some people are deemed to be at greater risk and these categories are listed in the latest government advice, and they are advised to seek medical advise from their GP before travelling. People with other conditions may need special assistance from the airline. If you have any concerns about your fitness, then contact your doctor for advice.

Fly Drive Itineraries
Currency and Credit Card We believe it is essential to obtain a credit card prior to your departure. In America credit cards are a way of like. Hotels will require an imprint of your credit card at check-in to cover for incidentals and for security reasons. Car hire companies will also require a credit card imprint of the nominated driver. In our opinion you should not leave home without your plastic friend. The currency in the U.S. is the U.S. dollar & in Canada is the Canadian dollar.
Drinking Laws Regulations in America and Canada vary but normally it is 21 or over. It is often necessary to provide ID before being served alcohol.
Car Hire & Driving Please note that most hire companies require a deposit at the commencement of any hire to cover the refilling of your petrol tank at the end of the hire. Seat belts are compulsory. Driving under the influence of alcohol is a serious offence and traffic laws are strictly enforced. In USA and Canada it is compulsory for drivers to carry a Valid Full driving licence with them at all times. Driving is on the right hand side of the road.
Currency We suggest you take your spending money in any of the following ways; • Small amounts of cash • Debit card • Credit card • An Post credit card

Please refer to sections 13, 14, and 15 of the Booking Form for further details.
A final word Whilst every endeavour is made to ensure that your travel plans run smoothly there can be times, thankfully very infrequent, when arrangements can go askew due to local circumstances of which we are unaware and have no control over.
