AIRWORLD’S

WELCOME I am delighted to welcome you to our latest 'Airworld Luxury - Enjoy the World' brochure, in which we have added two new destinations: TURKEY and FLORIDA. Although we are deeply entrenched in the hi-tech age today, we have found that in reality the majority of holiday-makers prefer the good old-fashioned approach - whereby they can actually speak to someone and get personal advice on their holiday. This is where, I firmly believe, we stand out from the crowd. Our travel advisers, renowned for their expertise, professionalism and friendliness, have an in-depth knowledge of the holidays we offer and are ready and willing to go that extra mile to ensure your satisfaction. Not only will you receive the best advice but also the best personal service - our hallmark! As always, our brochure contains a wide variety of holidays but, of course, no brochure can cater for everyone's individual taste. Therefore, we are pleased to offer you our completely free 'TailorMade' service, which is operated by our personal travel consultants who will do their utmost to plan your holiday to suit your individual requirements. Meanwhile, I hope our brochure will help you in deciding on your next holiday and I, and my friendly and professional team, look forward to being of service to you.

WEDDINGS & Honeymoons Imagine enjoying your wedding followed by your honeymoon in an idyllic tropical paradise spending your days lazing on beautiful white sand beaches, amidst gently swaying coconut palms and going for romantic evening walks in exotic surroundings as the tropical sun sets with flaming colours. These days more and more couples are choosing to get married abroad. Certainly there are advantages - a wedding in the UK could cost around £18,000, followed by the cost of the honeymoon. Getting married overseas combines your wedding and the honeymoon and would probably cost in the region of £3,000 for both of you. In addition, on these very special occasions hotels provide some excellent offers and thoughtful touches. These may include substantial price discounts, room upgrades, wine, flowers, special meals and exotic fruits. Also, should you wish to take along your family and friends, many hotels offer attractive discounts for group bookings. You can choose from a simple wedding to a more sophisticated affair with all the trimmings. We offer a wide and diverse range of packages to help you celebrate your special occasion. Maybe take in more than one destination - for example, get married in Mauritius then honeymoon in Seychelles - there are numerous possibilities. Just call our dedicated team of wedding experts on 020 8381 3333 who provide a personal and exceptional service and will ensure that every aspect of your big day is well taken care of with attention given to all details. A few examples are shown below. Also ask for our dedicated Weddings Brochure!

CANARY ISLANDS The beautiful Canary Islands, closer to the coast of Africa than Spain, bask in glorious sunshine virtually throughout the year and are blessed with sandy beaches fringing the sparkling blue waters of the Atlantic. TENERIFE

FUERTEVENTURA

LA GOMERA

FLIGHTS

The largest and most developed of the Canary Islands, Tenerife, is lively, sophisticated and offers stylish resorts. Costa de Adeje on the northern end of Playa de las Americas is ideal for water sports, while Playa de las Americas provides an international atmosphere and dark volcanic sand beaches. Just 40 minutes from Tenerife by fast ferry, La Gomera is one of the lesser known Canary Islands. Here you will find nature in its purest form where leafy woodlands meet rugged ravines and cliffs of impossible shapes hide small villages that have conserved their most ancient traditions.

The second largest and least populated of the islands this could be the perfect hideaway if lazy days spent on wide sandy beaches are your way of life. A flavour of old Spain can be savoured in Corralejo, the island's major resort, whilst Jandia, with its backdrop of volcanic mountains, is a windsurfer's delight. The prices shown for the Canary Islands are based on flying with Iberia Airlines from Heathrow and Gatwick and in some cases on charter airlines. Upgrades, flights with other airlines and regional departures are also available. Prices on request. Flight time approx: 4¼-5 hrs.

LANZAROTE

GRAN CANARIA

Spectacular sand dunes give way to a lush tropical interior. Maspalomas is famed for its beautiful beaches, sand dunes, water parks and golf. Playa del Ingles is cosmopolitan, lively and with an abundance of bars and restaurants, whilst the little resort of San Agustin remains relatively untouched by mass tourism.

SULTANATE OF OMAN The Sultanate of Oman is a hidden treasure rich in heritage, tradition and culture. With a history dating back to 3,000 BC, Oman's unspoilt land could tell a thousand tales. It was the birthplace of the Queen of Sheba, the last resting place of Prophet Job and the alleged home and port of the famous adventurer, Sinbad the Sailor. So it is no wonder the Sultanate has such an abundance of hidden treasures. From the stunning natural landscapes, grand forts, exquisite palaces and mystical souks, to the capital Muscat, the undulating dunes, fresh-water wadis and miles and miles of unspoilt sandy beaches, Oman is just waiting to be discovered. NB: During the holy month of Ramadan (approx. late Aug-late Sep 09), severe restrictions on the provision of entertainment, alcohol and services will be imposed. During the hours of fasting (between sunrise-sunset) alcohol can be consumed in hotel rooms only, and as a sign of respect visitors are asked to refrain from eating, drinking and smoking in public places.

Spectacular steep winding roads lead to dreamlike misty hill stations providing glorious views of lush tea plantations.

NB: Sri Lanka's west coast is affected by high tides and coastal erosion during the monsoon season (May-Sep) when beaches can all but disappear! Sea bathing in general is inadvisable due to rough seas and strong undercurrents. Always seek the advice of the hotel/local representative.

A country full of history and culture with ancient cities such as Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura, Mihintale, the mountain monastery where Buddhism was first introduced to the island in 247 BC, and of course, Kandy, home of the Temple of the Tooth. A climb up the imposing rock-fortress, Sigiriya, will reward you with breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Sri Lanka is a fascinating country to visit and is great value for money!

AIRWORLD’S

MALDIVES The Maldives, around 2,000 wonderful, tiny islands, are some 300 miles southwest of Sri Lanka. These mostly uninhabited coral islands sparkle like scattered diamonds across the glittering waters of the Indian Ocean. Each delightful island is the resort in itself. Diving in the Maldives is considered by many to be the best in the world and all resorts offer professional dive schools. For those of you who dream of true 'Robinson Crusoe' escapism, these islands will melt your hearts. However, for those of you who get bored by just lazing around and doing nothing, these islands may not be the place for you.

Please Note: Maldives is a Muslim country. In keeping with the religion, nudism is banned and the import of alcohol is strictly forbidden, although it is available to visitors in the resorts. Transfers to and from the islands are by speedboat or seaplane and are usually only provided in daylight hours. As some flights arrive late at night and depart in the early mornings, it would be necessary to have an overnight stay near the airport. Prices are available on request. Rare spells of bad weather, especially during the wet seasons, may result in water sports being restricted.

BOOKING CONDITIONS Please read the information shown on pages 3 and 144-147 and the relevant destination information carefully, as these, together with other information contained in the brochure, form the terms and conditions of the contract between you and Airworld Tours (Airworld). A contract will exist between us as soon as we confirm your holiday to you. YOUR FINANCIAL SECURITY

PRICING POLICY

CHANGING YOUR ARRANGEMENTS

The air holidays and flights in this brochure are protected by ATOL, since we hold an Air Travel Organiser's Licence granted by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our ATOL number is ATOL 5744. In the worst-case scenario, 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 the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. Holidays excluding flights are protected by the Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA) and our ABTA numbers are J5618/W5490.

All prices shown are in UK£ Sterling per person sharing a twin/double room and are purely for guidance only. Your final holiday price will be confirmed to you at the time of booking, which will incorporate any increases or reductions known to us at that time. However, your holiday price, thereafter, is subject to surcharges for increases in: i) transportation costs e.g. fuel, scheduled airfares and any other airline surcharges which Airworld Tours is obliged to pay or collect, ii) dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services (e.g. landing taxes and embarkation/ disembarkation fees at ports and airports), iii) the exchange rates applied to the particular package and Government action such as increases in VAT or any other Government imposed increases. No price changes will be made within 30 days of departure. In the case of any small variation we will absorb an amount equivalent to 2% of the confirmed holiday price, excluding any amendment charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1.00 per person. If you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements you may cancel your holiday and receive a full refund except for any amendment charges. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. Whether you cancel or not you will also be entitled, in the terms set out below in respect of 'major changes to your holiday', to accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements from us subject to availability and compensation if appropriate. It should be pointed out that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your holiday due to contractual and other protection in place. All prices quoted in this brochure are calculated on known costs and exchange rates as on 6 March 2009.

If you wish to alter your booking in any way once we have confirmed it, we shall do what we can to satisfy your requirements. An amendment fee of £50 per person will be charged plus any appropriate additional airline/holiday costs (some airlines do not allow any name or date changes). Any alterations by you within 70 days of departure may be treated as a cancellation of the original booking and may be subject to cancellation charges as shown in the table below.

PAYMENT FOR THE HOLIDAY A completed booking form and deposit of £125 per person, or 10% of the total holiday cost, whichever is the greater amount, is required. Certain holidays require a higher deposit, or full payment, which will be advised at the time of booking. If you are booking within 10 weeks of departure, full payment is required. The balance due as shown on your invoice must be paid to us no later than 10 weeks before your departure. If you fail to pay the balance by the due date we reserve the right to treat the booking as cancelled and levy appropriate cancellation charges as detailed below. All cheques are to be made payable to Airworld Tours and posted to the address shown on the next page.

INSURANCE It is a condition of booking with us that you purchase adequate independent insurance.

TRAVEL DOCUMENTS All travel documents, including flight tickets, will be despatched 7 days prior to departure.

CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE Your booking is subject to conditions of carriage of air, rail or sea carriers some of which may limit or exclude liability. These conditions are often the subject of international agreement between countries.

MINOR CHANGES TO YOUR HOLIDAY If we are obliged to make any minor change in the arrangements to your holiday we will inform you as soon as possible.

MAJOR CHANGES TO YOUR HOLIDAY If before you depart we have to make any major change to your holiday arrangements e.g. change of departure time of more than 12 hours in each direction, change of airport (but excluding changes between airports in the London region, aircraft type or airline) it will only be because we are forced to do so by circumstances usually beyond our control. In such an unlikely event we will inform you immediately and our objective will be to minimise your inconvenience. We will, wherever possible, offer you alternative arrangements as close as possible to your original choice. You will then have a choice of accepting, taking another available holiday of similar price or cancelling. Should you choose to cancel you will be reimbursed all monies paid to us. All above conditions exclude Force Majeure (see Force Majeure note).

CANCELLATION Should you or any member of your party wish to cancel your booking at any time please notify us immediately. If we have already issued a Confirmation Invoice it is essential that you indicate your intention to cancel in writing to ourselves. We will not effect the cancellation until such written advice is received. As we will incur costs in cancelling your holiday you will have to pay the applicable cancellation charges up to the maximum shown in the table below. These are calculated as a percentage of the total holiday cost of the person or persons making the cancellation. Cancellation charges No of Days Notification Before Departure Deposit More than 70 days 31-69 days 50% 15-30 days 70% 8-14 days 90% 1-7 days 100% Please note in some circumstances 100% cancellation will apply from the time of booking. We will provide details of this after we receive your cancellation instruction. Where the full cost of the airfare is required at the time of booking, no refund will be applicable from the time of booking. Airfares affected by this 100% cancellation policy will be collected at the time of booking or soon after as soon as airline notification is issued. In such circumstances the above cancellation charges will not apply instead the entire booking will be subject to 100% cancellation charges.

FORCE MAJEURE We accept no responsibility for and shall not be liable in respect of any loss or damage or alteration, delays or changes arising from unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control such as war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, industrial dispute including air traffic control disputes, terrorist activity, natural and nuclear disasters, fire or adverse weather conditions, technical problems with transport, closure or congestion of airports or ports, cancellations of schedules by scheduled airlines.

COMPENSATION FOR CANCELLATION OR MATERIAL ALTERATION BY US In the event of a cancellation or a material alteration to your holiday, Airworld Tours will pay compensation as follows (except where Airworld Tours has to cancel or make a material change to your holiday as a result of Force Majeure). Compensation per person (excluding infants) No of Days Notification Before Departure Nil More than 70 days 43-69 days £10 29-42 days £20 15-28 days £30 14 days or less £50 For children invoiced at a reduced price, compensation will be paid on a pro-rata basis of the adult price. No other claims for compensation or expenses will be considered.

BOOKING CONDITIONS COMPLAINTS If you have a problem during your holiday please inform the relevant airline, hotel, local agent or other suppliers immediately so that they can endeavour to put things right. If they cannot resolve the problem you must contact Airworld Tours UK office so that we are given an opportunity to assist. Airworld Tours will not hold themselves responsible for the nonperformance of an itinerary through causes beyond their control or when they are not notified of a problem at the point where remedial action can be taken. In the unlikely event that a complaint cannot be resolved at the time, you should write to us within 4 weeks of returning home, giving your original booking reference number and all other relevant information. If you fail to take any of these steps this will hinder our ability to put any problem right and/or investigate it fully and any right you may have to receive compensation will be reduced or completely invalidated. Disputes arising out of or in connection with this contract, which cannot be amicably settled may be referred to arbitration under a special scheme administered by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. The scheme provides for a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone. It does not apply to claims over £5,000 per person or £25,000 per booking form. A limit of £1,000 per person applies to any part of a claim for personal injury or illness. You must apply for arbitration within 9 months after your scheduled date of return. Details of the scheme will be supplied on request from the Association of British Travel Agents, 68-71 Newman Street, London W1P 4AH.

OUR LIABILITY TO YOU i) We accept responsibility for the negligent acts and/or omissions of our employees, agents and suppliers whilst acting in the course of their employment in the provision of your travel arrangements and for any deficiencies in the services we are contractually obliged to provide subject to the exceptions set out in this contract and relevant legislation such as The Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992. Our liability in all cases shall be limited to a maximum of two times the cost of your travel arrangements excluding amendment charges. ii) We accept responsibility for death, injury or illness of any person taking one of our holidays caused by the

Page 145

Cont/....

negligent acts and/or omissions of our employees or agents, our suppliers and sub-contractors, whilst acting within the scope of, or in the course of their employment in the provision of your travel arrangements. iii) Where a claim arises out of loss or damage suffered during air travel, rail travel, sea travel, or accommodation, the amount of compensation you receive will be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to the provision of the relevant International Convention. This means we are entitled to have all the benefit of any limitations of compensation contained in any international convention applicable to your holiday.

PERSONAL INJURY UNCONNECTED WITH ARRANGEMENTS MADE BY US If you, or any member of your party, suffer death, illness or injury whilst overseas, arising out of an activity which does not form part of your package travel arrangements with ourselves, we shall, at our discretion, offer advice, guidance and assistance. Where legal action is contemplated and you want our assistance, you must obtain our written consent prior to commencement of any proceedings. Our consent will be given subject to you undertaking to assign any costs and/or benefits received under any relevant insurance policy to ourselves. We limit the cost of our assistance to you or any member of your party to £5,000 per booking form.

BEHAVIOUR When you book with us you accept responsibility for any damage or loss caused by you or any member of your party. Proper payment of any such damage or loss must be made at the time direct to the accommodation owner or manager or other supplier. If you fail to do so, you must indemnify us against any claims (including legal costs) subsequently made against us as a result of your actions. We expect all clients to have consideration of other people. If in our opinion or in the opinion of any other person in authority you are behaving in such a way as to cause or to be likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any third party or damage to property, we reserve the right to terminate your arrangements without notice. In this situation responsibility towards you (including any return transport arrangements) will immediately cease and we will not be responsible for meeting any costs or expenses you may incur as a result, or making any refund or paying compensation.

Airworld Tours has no control over the behaviour of other people staying in or visiting your holiday accommodation. Your accommodation is provided solely for the use of passengers shown in the final Confirmation Invoice as confirmed by us - subletting, sharing or assignment is prohibited.

TOURISM FOR ALL In planning this brochure we are conscious of the fact that in many cases our holidays would not be suitable for disabled travellers. As some of the resorts and accommodation featured may lack even the simplest facilities, such as ramps for wheelchairs, lifts, etc, it is important that, when booking, you advise us of any disabilities and special requirements to make sure the holiday meets your specific needs. We would be happy to discuss the possibilities and advise you accordingly.

DATA PROTECTION POLICY Information that you provide us with about you and members of your party (name, address, special needs/dietary requirements etc.) must be passed on to our service providers such as airlines, hotels etc. This information may also be provided to public authorities, if required by them or as required by law, and may also be transferred abroad. Some information, for example relating to your religion or health, may be 'sensitive personal data' within the meaning of the Data Protection Act 1998. We need this information to cater for your needs, but it is collected on condition that we have your positive consent. If you do not agree to use of your information we cannot accept your booking. From time to time we may contact you to inform you of offers, new products etc. and also we may provide your details to selected third parties for similar purposes (if you do not wish to receive such information, please notify us). By making a booking with us you agree to the use and disclosure of information as described.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION Please read the information shown on pages 3 and 144-147 and the relevant destination information carefully, as these, together with other information contained in the brochure, form the terms and conditions of the contract between you and Airworld Tours (Airworld). BROCHURE ACCURACY

Every care has been taken to ensure that the information in the brochure is accurate at the time of printing. Our descriptions are based on assurances from hoteliers. It must be remembered, however, that the brochure is produced some twelve months in advance and naturally changes can occur. If we are advised of any material changes by the hotel we shall do our utmost to pass these on to you as soon as we become aware of them. All map locations are approx. and are not intended to be definitive.

WEATHER

All weather details shown in this brochure have been compiled from information received from the Meteorological Office or relevant tourist authorities. They are to be used purely as a guide only, bearing in mind the changing weather patterns throughout the world. Obviously, we cannot accept any responsibility for the weather conditions at the time of your visit.

HOLIDAY SEASONS

The majority of destinations we feature in this brochure are available all year round. Some do have quieter off peak periods when you can take advantage of uncrowded beaches and more personal attention from hotel staff. At this time it may be necessary for hotels to scale down the size of some of their facilities, such as restaurants, to match demand. Similarly, during peak periods, hotels experience full occupancy, which may result in a livelier atmosphere and slower service in busier facilities.

HOTELS

The choice of hotel is crucial to your holiday. The hotels we feature have been selected for their location, their character or their value and may not, therefore, be the best in other respects. If you have any doubts at all please discuss your choice with us. The final selection is, however, entirely up to you.

CHECK IN / CHECK OUT TIMES

All hotels operate the standard international practice with regard to check in and check out times. Check in is usually between 1400-1600 hours and check out is usually between 1000-1200 hours (please ensure you clarify the exact check out time with the hotel on arrival). This means you may have to wait some time, if you arrive early, for your room to be made up, and vacate your room perhaps hours before your departure. It may be possible to retain your room until departure on payment of an extra charge, depending on whether the room is required for arriving guests.

ACCOMMODATION

Even though we feature some of the best hotels in the non-European destinations the accommodation may still be considered modest by European standards. Our use of the words superior or deluxe to describe rooms must be read in the context of the hotel description. Single rooms or twins for sole use may vary in standard and position. We are willing to request the hotel to place an extra bed in a twin room and a reduction may be offered. It must be understood, however, that floor and drawer space may be cramped. Beds for children may not be full single size and can often be 'rollaway' style. When we describe a room as having sea view this means you will have some view of the sea. The room may not face the sea and the view may be at an angle. Views may also be obscured by garden foliage. Please note that although we may describe the hotel as on the seafront or overlooking the sea it does not always follow that rooms have sea view. It should be noted that you might find lizards, ants, cockroaches or other insects in your room. This is a fact of life in some of the hot countries and should not be seen as a sign of dirtiness.

HOTEL FACILITIES

Sports and entertainment facilities are shown in good faith as being available but their provision may be limited or they may not be available from time to time. Please note that where an hotel offers free water or other sports these may be limited and a deposit for equipment and a charge for instruction may be requested. Please also note that not all facilities and activities mentioned are available free and any charges that apply would be payable locally. Some outdoor activities such as beach services and water sports may be subject to weather conditions and sufficient support. If air-conditioning is provided, at times this may be subject to energy saving regulations. Please also note that supplies of electricity and water can be erratic in non-European destinations. Lifts in some hotels may not have internal doors. Children should be supervised at all times by their parents when using this type of lift. Many resort hotels have open-sided restaurants which attract local bird life, particularly at breakfast time.

146 | AIRWORLD TOURS

MEALS & ALL INCLUSIVE PLANS

In general, you cannot expect European standards in some developing destinations. In some areas much of the food has to be imported and meals will vary depending on the style of hotel. Please remember that food is very much a matter of personal taste and preference. Many hotels adopt a buffet-style service for meals. Where we offer half or full board arrangements the meals are on a table d'hote (fixed menu) basis. A supplement is usually required for a la carte meals and in some cases the hotel will not allow any credit for the table d'hote meal not taken. We advise you to check with the hotel before dining. Please note that no refund can be given for meals not taken. All Inclusive plans do not necessarily include 'everything'. Meals are usually restricted to certain restaurants, drinks are usually locally produced and not all activities and water sports are included. We very strongly advise you to check with the hotel on arrival as to exactly what is included and between what times they are included.

SERVICE

Some destinations have a rather relaxed attitude to service. It can be frustratingly slow, but patience and a friendly approach on your part are likely to achieve the best results.

RESORT DEVELOPMENT & HOTEL RENOVATIONS

In any resort or destination, building works must be expected and often start without prior warning. Hotels also have to be maintained and refurbished and swimming pools cleaned but the manager will try to ensure a minimum of inconvenience to guests.

FLIGHTS

All flights are subject to government approval and may be amended or withdrawn at any time, without Airworld incurring liability. The arrangements shown in this brochure are based on scheduled and charter flights (it should be noted that not all airlines provide complimentary meals and drinks). All flights are based in economy class. Upgrades are available at a supplement. It may sometimes be necessary to make stops en route for refuelling or to pick up joining passengers. Owing to security regulations it is not always possible to leave the plane during these stops. Flight durations shown in this brochure are an indication of the time spent in the air and do not include stops en route or time spent between connecting flights. It should be noted that all passengers travel under the conditions of carriage of the airline concerned as printed on their ticket. It is your responsibility to ensure that you reconfirm any onward or return flights. NB: Owing to changes in pressure it is dangerous to fly less than 48 hours after scuba diving. Excessive drinking before boarding your flight could result in you being refused permission to board the aircraft. Some charter airlines are not permitted to carry certain nationals to and from their country of origin. Most airlines will refuse permission for women to fly who will be 28 or more weeks pregnant on the date of return travel. Failure to comply with airline regulations may result in cancellation and denial of boarding, and we cannot be held liable for any such occurrence.

LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE

Luggage allowances will be shown on your air tickets. There is no allowance for infants under 2 years apart from a carrycot and/or collapsible pushchair. Excess luggage is carried at the airline's discretion and may incur charges payable directly to the airline. Please contact your airline for the latest luggage allowance details.

SEAT ALLOCATION

As seats on many international flights are allocated on check in, you are strongly advised to arrive early to secure the seats of your choice. Where the flight originates at another point your choice may be limited. Some airlines are willing to reserve seats in advance, and we will pass on your request. We cannot, however, guarantee the airline will be able to meet your requirements.

SMOKING

Almost all airlines have adopted a non-smoking policy and many hotels have also now started adopting a nonsmoking policy in hotel rooms, and in the public areas of the hotel. If this information is important to you please check with us at the time of booking.

DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS (DVT)

Travel involving prolonged immobility can cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Recent surgery, previous occurrence of DVT and a family history of DVT are among the factors that may increase your susceptibility to the condition. If you are concerned about travelling then you are advised to contact your GP before you depart. Information on travel-related DVT is available on the Department of Health website at www.doh.gov.uk/dvt.

FLIGHT DELAYS

Delays, unfortunately, may occur through various reasons. Where long flight delays result in lost holiday time, no refunds are given by hotels/suppliers for unused accommodation/services. Similarly, airlines do not usually offer compensation for flight delays. Consequently, Airworld is not liable for any costs incurred or loss of enjoyment as a result of any such delay. Recompense for such delays may be claimed through certain types of holiday insurance (please check your holiday insurance covers such losses).

OVERSEAS AIRPORT TAXES

Foreign departure/airport taxes vary and may be payable locally either in foreign currency (e.g. US$ etc.) or in local currency. Please ensure you have enough local and foreign funds to meet these payments. If you are travelling to more than one country on your holiday, you may be required to pay a departure tax at each point.

ALCOHOL

Restrictions on the consumption of alcohol may be imposed with little or no notice at all by the relevant authorities.

PUBLIC & RELIGIOUS HOLIDAYS

Services may be curtailed or limited during certain religious events and public holidays. Please note that such holidays and religious events may be called at very little or no notice at all.

PRIVATE FUNCTIONS / EVENTS

At times, various events including private functions, conferences, weddings and filming may take place at hotels. We have no control over these matters whatsoever.

SAFETY & HEALTH

You are, of course, responsible for your own safety. It is tactless for visitors to make a great show of wealth, especially in developing countries. In general your own common sense must prevail. Please remember that in some destinations the sun can be deceptively strong and those inviting crystal clear waters may conceal strong undercurrents, sharp coral or sea urchins and the like. Take every precaution and take heed of local warnings. Inoculations are entirely your responsibility please consult your doctor or health centre. The Foreign & Commonwealth Office Travel Advice Unit may have issued information about your holiday destination. Please visit their website at www.fco.gov.uk/travel. Information can also be found on BBC2 (Ceefax) page 470 onwards.

VISAS & PASSPORTS

Please ensure you hold a full passport and that it is valid for at least 6 months after your return date. The visa information contained here is for British and Irish passport holders only and is correct at the time of going to press. Holders of other passports (including Commonwealth passports) and of British or Irish passports issued abroad should check with the appropriate consulate or embassy as to the requirements for a visa. It is entirely your responsibility to ensure that your passport and visa documentation is in order. Failure to do so may lead to denial of exit from this country or of entry overseas. Any costs which consequently arise will be payable by you. It will also be deemed that you have cancelled your holiday and no refunds will be made. Visas required for Oman, Cuba and Bali (some other destinations featured do require a visa for stays of over 30 nights). USA Visa or Visa Waiver Programme (VWP) required. It is mandatory for anyone travelling to the US under the VWP to obtain authorisation no later than 72 hours prior to travel by completing an online process ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation) at www.esta.cbp.dhs.gov.

HOLIDAY SELECTION

Problems can arise beyond our control. In this event please take the matter up with our local agents and/or the hotel. Most problems can be resolved in resort without spoiling your holiday. Complaining on your return will be too late. We know from experience that most holiday complaints arise as a result of choosing the wrong holiday, so please choose carefully and seek our advice. Overall, patience and understanding are invaluable.
