TAILOR-MADE ACCESSIBLE HOLIDAYS

Algarve, Portugal
A warm welcome to Enable Holidays’ accessible travel brochure for 2020. On the following pages, you’ll find just a small selection of our extensive range of barrierfree holidays especially tailored to meet the needs of disabled travellers. We enjoy what we do – and it shows in the service we provide and the glowing reviews we receive. Because everyone’s needs are as individual as they are, no two Enable holidays are the same. Each one is expertly and individually created by one of our ‘Personal Enablers’. Enablers are a lot more than day-to-day travel consultants. They are hugely experienced travel professionals. More importantly, though, they are specially trained, caring and passionate people who understand the special needs and aspirations of disabled holidaymakers.
And this involves much more than just knowing about grab rails, flat floor showers and wheelchair-accessible lifts. It’s about having the knowledge and skill to identify what kind of holiday would be the right fit for you and your travelling companions. This will always involve making special arrangements with airports and airlines, organising adapted taxi transfers, and knowing all there is to know about the accessibility and disabled facilities across 100s of hotels, villas, destinations and resorts. But the holiday service provided by your Enabler goes much further than that. Because they take their time to get to know all about you, they are able to cover all essentials and extra special finishing touches to make your Enable holiday a holiday you’ll remember for all the right reasons.

WHY WE LOVE WHAT WE DO
It’s being able to create an incredible safari adventure for John and Margaret of East Sussex. It’s coming to the aid of Derek when his wheelchair broke in Thailand. In less than an hour, our agent got a replacement to him. And it’s all about bringing an extra touch of magic for young Max and his family for their first-ever visit to Disney World, Florida. This is what our service is all about. And that’s why we’ve been voted the Best Accessible Travel Provider in the Silver Travel Awards for four years running. In the words of Dame Esther Rantzen DBE: ‘ ’We change people’s lives’’. That’s a compliment we can’t possibly top. If you’re already one of our customers, we hope you’ll have noticed the lengths we go to, to make everything perfect. If you’ve yet to book with us, you now have a better idea of the kind of service you can look forward to.
Voted the Best Accessible Travel Provider for 4 years running in the Silver Travel Awards. Enable Holidays’ managing director Lynne Kirby with Dame Esther Rantzen DBE at the Silver Travel Awards 2019

We offer holidays to some of the world’s most popular and beautiful beach resorts. From large city locations, where the pace is exhilarating, to more traditional-style fishing villages, where there’s time to sit back and admire white-washed cottages and colourful boats in pictureperfect harbours.

Kerkyra, capital of Corfu island
COSTA DORADA
TENERIFE
Resorts, like the ever-popular Salou, are flat and near the accessible Llevant Beach. With its level platforms down to the water’s edge, it’s ideal for wheelchair-users.
Accessibility on the south of the island is some of the best you will find anywhere in Europe. The resorts of Playa de las Americas, Los Cristianos and Costa Adeje are especially suitable for wheelchair-users.
COSTA BRAVA
The heart of Playa de las Americas is pedestrianised and very close to the accessible beach of Las Vistas. The beach features an accessible sunbathing area, plus the Red Cross offer a mobility aqua chair and assisted bathing services. Dropped kerbs are commonplace in all these popular resorts, and Tenerife offers a barrier-free tram system, low floor buses, wheelchairaccessible taxis and adapted car hire.
A firm favourite with Enable customers for years, Costa Brava is made up of five resorts, Santa Susanna, Pineda del Mar, Malgrat de Mar, Lloret de Mar and Tossa de Mar. The resorts offer miles of promenade and plenty of dropped kerbs. A wheelchair-accessible train service runs along the seafront from Costa Brava to Barcelona.
‘We love Greece and her islands but with my wife’s increasing disability doubted whether we would ever travel there again. But Enable were able to find a holiday which exactly met our availability dates and our practical needs.’ Aug 2019
FUERTEVENTURA The island of Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Canary Islands, and its accessibility has proven popular with many Enable holidaymakers.

PORTUGAL
Camara de Lobos, Madeira
THE GREEK ISLANDS Corfu has many accessible features, such as level pedestrian-only areas and easy-access buses. In Ipsos, they’ve added many dropped kerbs and crossing points to their “golden mile” promenade, as well as beach access with aqua chair and a ramped access into the sea.
One of our favourite places in Portugal is Vilamoura. This flat resort offers fine dining and exquisite bars. The marina area not only provides an extremely attractive backdrop, it’s also one of the most accessible holiday areas in the entire country. Here, you’ll find a large choice of wheelchair ramps, accessible beaches with walkways, amphibious chairs and adapted toilets. You’ll also find beautiful accessible beaches in Quarteira, Alvor, Lagos and Albufeira.
lalyssos in Rhodes has an accessible beach area, with wooden walkways that criss-cross the sand. And Rhodes Town has a wide selection of shops, bars and restaurants along bustling streets with dropped kerbs and a flat coastal path.
MADEIRA
CYPRUS
Despite its mountainous terrain, Madeira is surprisingly wheelchair-friendly.
Sun-soaked Cyprus is a much-loved holiday destination that’s welcomed those with mobility impairments for many years. And we have a great choice of audited and fully adapted hotel rooms and apartments here.
Many of the new buildings have been designed with accessibility in mind. The island’s cable car has also been fitted with wheelchair access and Funchal marina has a ramp to allow access to the restaurants and bars. As an option, we can organise many accessible tours, including the incredible Laurissilva Forest, where the accessible trail leads you to views of some of the most stunning landscapes on the island.
Meanwhile, on the island of Crete, you’ll find a choice of accessible beaches on the Chania side of the Island. There are also accessible vehicles for hire to explore the island at your leisure.
At Polis Chrysochous Municipal Beach (in the Paphos area) and Vathia Gonia Beach (in the Ayia Napa area) innovative Seatrac systems are installed to provide wheelchair-users with autonomous access into the sea.
CARIBBEAN The Caribbean is many people’s idea of an accessible holiday in paradise. With its spotless beaches, towering palms, shimmering waters and tropical climate, it isn’t surprising that it is on so many people’s lists of places to visit. It isn’t just the landscape that makes disabled holidays in the Caribbean so sought after, though. The culture, the cuisine (full of iconic dishes like saltfish and ackee), and the people all play their part. With Enable Holidays, you can choose between Barbados, St Lucia and the Dominican Republic, indulging in the welcome that these islands are famous for.

THE BRAND-NEW ENABLE HOLIDAYS WEBSITE IS
NOW LIVE
Our new website has been meticulously developed to provide you with an enhanced customer journey. The site not only looks great – but, more importantly, it is easy to navigate, provides a userfriendly experience and allows you to quickly find accessible destinations and hotels to meet your specific requirements.
At the heart of it all is a sophisticated main search tool, which identifies accommodation by country, resort, board basis, star rating and the adapted facilities you require. This feature is supported by a filter/sort system for resort and holiday type pages, helping you to narrow down or arrange your desired properties to suit your specific needs. A live chat function, along with a button to request a free call-back, provides a direct link to the Enable team, thereby allowing you to personally discuss any specific questions and holiday enquiries you may have.
This feature provides easy and direct access to a member of the Enable team on any page being visited. The new and improved website layout offers detailed information on each and every property within each resort page - revealing star ratings, holiday types, board basis’ and adapted facilities. These details will help you to discover the hotels that best suit your needs, without having to take part in the time-consuming task of going back and forth between different resorts until the right property is found.
There’s also a quick and easy way to see what’s new and which properties are firm favourites with other Enable customers, by viewing the slideshows of the latest properties and current popular properties on the home page.
There’s also much more information on the new-look tour pages, with in-depth detail on the accessible adventures that are available with Enable. Before clicking onto each tour, you’ll find a brief description of the adapted excursions included around these exotic locations.
When using a mobile device, you are now able to call an Enabler by clicking the phone icon.

VILLAS If you love the idea of doing what you want, when you want, an accessible Enable villa is perfect for you. We have a great choice of private, well-equipped villas in stunning locations across Europe, Florida and more.
Enable Holidays is always expanding its selection of wheelchair-accessible villas. The location of most villas means that car hire is usually required to reach shopping areas, beaches and places of interest. But with many, we can arrange a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) within the cost of the holiday.
There’s something extra special about a holiday in a private villa.
A villa gives you and your small party that private ‘do-as-you–please’ feel, with the flexibility to cater for yourselves in the privacy of your own grounds and holiday home.
During your stay, you should regard it as your very own personal space. A place where you can relax and enjoy high standards of service and facilities. With features such as your very own accessible swimming pool and as much privacy as you like, it will provide the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday. If required, we can even arrange adapted vehicle hire so you can explore at your leisure.
We are also able to organise the hire of many mobility aids to make your holiday convenient, comfortable, hassle-free, and that little bit easier all round.
THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR THREEGENERATIONAL HOLIDAYS We’re pleased to have villas in all shapes and sizes to meet the needs of families and parties of all shapes and sizes. With the growing demand for three-generational holidays, a large villa makes the perfect base for children, parents and grandparents to all enjoy quality time together under one roof – as well as under blue skies and a million stars. The perfect setting for making family memories you’ll cherish forever.

Sometimes only the very best will do. It’s why we’ve searched the world to find 5-star holidays that combine the ultimate in luxury and accessibility.
So, talk to one of our friendly accessible travel experts and we’ll create the perfect holiday around you. From flight upgrades, VIP access to airport lounges to luxury accommodation in the very finest resorts, if it’s luxury you’re after, we can deliver it on a silver platter. Our 5-Star and Ultra 5-Star hotels can be found in some of the world’s most desirable holiday locations. In total, we have a range of almost 90 luxury holidays to choose from in more than 20 destinations – across the Mediterranean, Aegean, mainland Europe, Egypt, the Caribbean, Mexico and the USA. On these holidays, you can always expect something special. A quality of service that reflects the status of the hotel and the location. Special places where you can really spoil yourself and get spoiled. But most importantly of all, we expect them to provide high standards of facilities and services for our customers with limited mobility – and especially those using wheelchairs.
To combine the wonders of Egypt with a coastal retreat, you could look at the Hilton Pyramids Golf & Spa Hotel in Cairo. But, if southern Europe floats your boat, there’s a plethora of options to choose from. Like the Sunborn in Gibraltar that offers all the indulgence of a refined top-quality hotel whilst being a luxurious moored yacht; or the stunning Marriott Malta Hotel & Spa that’s built within the grounds of an 18th-century villa in the heart of St Julian’s beautiful promenade. Crossing over to ancient Greece, you may like the idea of staying in the shadow of the Acropolis in the exquisite Royal Olympic Hotel. Or the stunning Aguas de Ibiza in Santa Eulalia could be the perfect place for you to spend a decadent holiday in Ibiza. Discover almost 90 luxury holidays in the Luxury section of our website: enableholidays.com. Or call us on 0330 380 6800.
Luxury may be the watchword for these holidays, but each hotel offers its own unique style and atmosphere, which is naturally influenced by its location. We haven’t the space to feature all them in this small section, but here’s a whistle-stop tour of just some of the properties that make up our VIP collection. In the Americas, you may like to consider the Dolphin Suites in Curacao, the Barcelo Maya Beach Resort in Mexico’s Playa del Carmen, or our luxury FL3 villa in the Sunshine State of Florida.

Very often, it only takes a little change to make all the difference. A short break of two or three days for a change of scene, culture, entertainment and culinary delights. Somewhere that can be reached by a short flight, ferry crossing, Eurostar rail travel, or even self-drive. The remedy, of course, is an accessible city break.
What makes a city break really great is getting to see as much as you can in the time that you’ve got. It’s therefore important to know that you can enjoy it comfortably, whether you’re a slow walker, wheelchairuser or just someone who would appreciate an easier way to get around. At Enable Holidays, we offer a wide range of accessible city breaks to suit every taste. A touch of culture ... vibrant nightlife ... magnificent museums ... romantic restaurants ... irresistible shopping - plus a wide variety of live theatre shows. We also possess lots of knowledge and helpful tips to ensure your city break is everything you want it to be. You can select from an excellent choice of audited accessible hotels - whether you’re looking for a small and cosy boutique hotel or a large well-known chain. As with all our hotels, you can expect a guaranteed adapted room and all the help you need for planning to see the sights and soak up the atmosphere.

Useful Information AT THE AIRPORT You must check in AT LEAST 2-3 hours before your flight is scheduled to take off in accordance with your itinerary. If you fail to check in on time, the airline is entitled to refuse to allow you to board the flight. We cannot accept responsibility if such situations arise, and while we will endeavour to assist in making alternative travel arrangements to get you to your destination, any costs or loss incurred as a result will be your responsibility.
ARRIVAL After passing through customs at the airport you will be met by one of our representatives and they will show you to your taxi taking you to your chosen accommodation.
TRANSFERS Transfer timings for each resort are shown on the introduction page of each resort in this brochure. The times quoted are direct travelling times. You will be transferred from the airport to your accommodation on arrival and from your accommodation back to the airport on your departure.
DEPARTURE Our representatives will advise you of your precise departure arrangements. Normally you will be expected to vacate your room by noon on departure day (with the exception of Nile Cruises where you may be expected to check out by 8am). In the case of a night flight, the vacating day is noon prior to the departure time. Please refer to ‘Nights in Resort’ below for further information.
LUGGAGE ON DEPARTURE DAYS If you are vacating your accommodation at midday and have to wait some considerable time for your departure from resort, your luggage remains your responsibility during this time. Whilst our representatives may be able to suggest places where luggage can be stored, this will be entirely at your own risk. We cannot accept responsibility for any luggage that is left unattended.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES Our representatives are carefully selected to offer you advice, useful tips and the benefit of their local knowledge. You will be given a contact telephone number for our representatives or local agents.
NIGHTS IN RESORT Your accommodation is reserved for you from 12 noon on the day you leave the UK. For night flights departing after midnight, the day you leave the UK is deemed to be the previous day so that you have immediate access when you arrive. In most cases and by international convention, rooms must be vacated by 12 noon on the last day of your holiday. You may have to wait several hours before your return flight departs. Where possible, a room will be made available for changing and storing luggage. Some hotels may let you keep your room but they are entitled to make a charge for this service and this does not form part of your contract with us. This is not normally possible with apartments. Where half board, full board or all inclusive has been booked and flight timings may mean losing one meal, your holiday price has been adjusted to compensate
ACCOMMODATION Our accommodation is selected in accordance with our 150 point audit for accessibility. All accommodation classifications and ratings are granted by the tourist authority of the country you are visiting. We have no influence over the ratings/ classifications that are granted.
AVAILABILITY OF RESORT AND ACCOMMODATION FACILITIES In some resorts, hotels and apartments it is possible that certain advertised facilities may not be available or fully operational in the early and late part of the season, due to the number of participating holidaymakers and weather conditions. Also airconditioning and heating, where mentioned may be available only at certain times of the day or year at the hoteliers discretion and at an additional cost. Such situations are regrettably beyond our control.
NILE CRUISES Itineraries and excursions may alter beyond our control. Delays can be experienced, particularly at locks and this may lead to the last minute cancellation
48 | Useful Information
of excursions or overnight cruising. Due to the number of boats on the Nile several may dock together (side by side) which may obscure the view from your cabin. Getting on and off boats may mean walking through/ across boats docked adjacent to your own (levels may vary). Care should be taken on gangplanks and any uneven surfaces.
beach has lifeguards and swim parallel to the shore within your depth. Children should be supervised at all times and there should be no swimming at night. You should swim before eating and drinking and not immediately after. You should also be aware of any “zones” for jet skis and power boats and stay well away.
BREAKAGES AND DEPOSITS
IT IS IMPORTANT YOU DO NOT DIVE FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE TRAVELLING BY AIR. THIS MAY INVALIDATE YOUR TRAVEL INSURANCE IN THE EVENT OF ILLNESS.
You will be expected to pay for any damage or breakages caused to your accommodation or hotel room. This must be paid before you leave the resort. Property management reserve the right to evict you from the accommodation where deliberate damage/ breakage has been caused. We will not accept any responsibility for your action in such cases. Some properties charge a deposit on arrival which is refundable at the end of your holiday (assuming there is no damage to the accommodation as a result of your stay).
SWIMMING POOLS Most hotels and apartments do not employ a lifeguard. Please ensure that children and non-swimmers are supervised at all times and observe the pool rules at your accommodation. We do not recommend any diving, however if you wish to dive please check that the water is deep enough and that the property allows diving. You should also exercise caution around the pool areas since pool surrounds are often slippery when wet and you should not enter the pool after drinking alcohol. Please note that swimming pools may be temporarily withdrawn for maintenance purposes. Hoteliers and apartment owners may make a discretionary charge for facilities at their accommodation, e.g. pool and sun loungers.
MAID SERVICE Overall the standard of cleaning in holiday accommodation is good and frequent. The frequency of the service may vary between different properties of differing classifications.
INSECTS Insects are prevalent in hotter countries. It is advisable to take insect repellents with you on holiday in order to avoid mosquito bites.
DRINKING WATER Although water is chlorinated in most destinations, we do not recommend that you drink it since not all countries treat tap water. We would recommend that you drink bottled water which is inexpensive and widely available throughout the resort.
ALL INCLUSIVE In accordance with your room vacation at 12 noon on the day of departure, the all-inclusive package will also finish at this time. Some hotels may offer the facility to extend the all-inclusive but this must be arranged and paid for locally. Times/facilities available during allinclusive terms of stay may vary in certain hotels.
SAFETY AND LOCAL STANDARDS The safety standards and regulations in operation overseas are those of the country visited and often regrettably, do not aspire to the same levels as the UK. Therefore, the general standards of safety, hygiene, fire precaution etc. may be lower than your expectations. This is a matter for the authorities of that country and the overseas supplier of the services concerned.
FIRE SAFETY Please read carefully all fire safety information which is available in your hotel or apartment. On arrival, always familiarise yourselves with the nearest fire exits to your room or apartment.
STANDARDS AND SAFETY OF BEACHES Our brochure descriptions give a fair indication of the type of beach at the resort and the availability of any watersports or any other beach related activities. Although many holiday-makers prefer swimming pools and surrounding terraces to the beach, as a responsible company we feel it our duty to point out that the EC publishes a report annually which lists the beaches throughout Europe which do not meet the Commission’s requirements to cleanliness. Swimming outside of designated beaches is very dangerous; there can be strong undercurrents where swimming in such areas has resulted in loss of life. We recommend that you swim off main beaches and should avoid remote rocky coastlines. Familiarise yourself with the local flag warning systems and seek local advice on which beaches are the safest. Check to see if the
SCUBA DIVERS PLEASE NOTE:
BALCONIES If you are travelling with young children, make sure they are not left unsupervised on balconies. Keep balcony furniture away from the railings so that they are not encouraged to climb up.
GLASS PANELS Few hotels and apartments are legally obliged to install “toughened” or safety glass in their windows, doors and glass cabinets etc. Please take particular care when walking through patio doors. It can be difficult to spot if they are closed in bright sunlight. Identifying stickers should be in place on patio doors and other large glass doors. If they are missing, please bring this to the attention of the accommodation.
PLAYGROUNDS AND CHILDREN’S CLUBS Some hotels and apartments in our programme feature playgrounds and other children’s facilities including children’s clubs. These are not always supervised and it is advisable that you supervise your children at all times, throughout your holiday.
ALCOHOL Most people like to indulge during holidays. There are times however, when alcohol is best avoided. Egypt is a Muslim country, the majority of alcohol is imported and therefore more expensive than in the UK. Local alcohol is much cheaper than imported varieties, however the quality may be lower. Soft drinks such as coca cola and lemonade are widely available and bottled water is recommended. You should not drink alcohol before swimming and it should be avoided during sunbathing, since it causes dehydration. Never drink if hiring a car, as drink-driving laws exist in most countries. Drunken behaviour in accommodation and on board aircraft can result in you being asked to leave the accommodation or the aircraft accordingly. In such cases, our contract with you will cease and we will bear no further responsibility for you.
MOPEDS, MOTORBIKES AND JET SKIS Mopeds are a major source of injury (and even death), especially when in the hands of inexperienced riders. Any insurance cover available when you hire may not be adequate in either of these events. Although mopeds and motorbikes look like fun, we strongly recommend you do not indulge. Pushbikes are a healthy option but be careful of motorised vehicles which ALWAYS have priority. Due to our own experiences in dealing with injured guests who have hired jet skis over recent years, we have been made increasingly aware of their possible dangers. We do not want to spoil your fun, but would like to highlight the potential hazards involved in hiring jet skis which in the past has resulted in serious injury.
PREGNANCY NOTE Airline regulations state that women over 28 weeks or more into pregnancy, at the time of return travel, must have a medical certificate of fitness before travel. Normally after 32 weeks, permission to travel is refused.
CARRIAGE OF INFANTS Infants must be over 6 weeks old to travel by air and must be under 2 years old on the date of return to qualify as an infant. Charges for the carriage of infants vary from airline to airline and relevant charges will be advised at the time of booking. There is no luggage allowance for Infants. British registered airlines will now allow infants to travel in one of four approved child car seats. The price charged will normally equate to the applicable seat-only price. You will not be charged for cots or food for any infant, at the time of booking. Cots and food are available in most resorts and accommodations but they must be paid for locally
NOISE Our experience has shown that if you are used to living in a quiet area, you are likely to find a resort described as “quiet” in this brochure, subject to a higher level
For the full range of over 600 accessible holidays visit our brand new website: www.enableholidays.com
Booking conditions of noise than you might expect. Local people will often start work as early as 6.30am. Motorbikes are very common and they can be heard all night. Many locals keep animals such as sheep, goats, dogs, chickens, cockerels and camels and it is not unusual to hear barking throughout the night and crowing in the early morning. In general, holiday makers like to stay up late and make use of all the night-time facilities. Entertainment in all resorts can be open-air and can go on until 2-3am. Please remember that life goes on even in the quietest resorts. If you are concerned about noise levels, it is important to read the description of the accommodation in resorts carefully. In addition in Muslim countries there is a call to prayer five times a day including calls at dusk and dawn.
TOURIST DEVELOPMENT Tourism is a rapidly expanding industry and this has resulted in many new accommodations being built, as well as new holiday villages, roads, plumbing and sewer systems. This is in response to demands by the influx of tourists and there are still new buildings and roads being constructed in most popular resorts.
BUILDING WORKS Since holiday resorts are constantly being developed and expanded, there may be building or construction work in the vicinity of your chosen accommodation or in the resort in general. The work may start early in the day, as per local practice, and it can occur during any time throughout the season. It is impossible to foresee the extent of such activity and we regret we cannot always issue information on these everchanging local conditions. Whenever we are made aware of such work and if, in our opinion it is likely to affect your direct enjoyment of the holiday, we will endeavour to notify you as soon as possible. We ask you to bear in mind that as tour operators, we have no control over such work and should this happen close to you, please do not let it spoil your holiday.
PASSPORTS AND VISAS Please refer to Section 15 of our Booking Conditions regarding Passports and Visas. As travel regulations constantly change, we as tour operators are unable to provide up-to-date information concerning such requirements. It is therefore your responsibility to ensure that you comply with all necessary travel regulations, especially visas and passports, either through you travel agent or directly with the appropriate consulate of the countries involved. Visas are required for all visits to Turkey and Egypt. For British passport holders, these can be obtained from the relevant Embassies in the UK or locally on arrival. Please note that if you choose to obtain your visa locally on arrival, it will have to be paid for in Pounds Sterling. Local currency will not be accepted for payment of a visa. All non-British passport holders should check with the relevant embassies in the UK prior to travelling.

taxi drivers and in general anyone who offers you any type of service or assistance.
PERSONAL SAFETY Please take care of all your personal property and valuables at all times. Wherever possible, you should make use of any safees that are available in your accommodation. Always remember to lock your door and close your windows at night and when you go out in the same way that you would at home. Be careful when walking around holiday resorts, since given the opportunity, pickpockets throughout the world are keen to help themselves to your handbags, cameras etc.
MEALS Bed and Breakfast is usually continental unless otherwise stated. Half Board is usually breakfast and evening meal and can be either buffet or waiter service at the discretion of the management. Guests staying on half board, full board or all-inclusive basis have their meals in the main hotel restaurant unless otherwise advised on arrival. Please bear in mind that guests with special dietary needs (for example, vegetarians, vegans and different cultures) may not find the same variety or options available that they are accustomed to. Although several higher standard hotels will offer an alternative menu, please do not expect too much. Your board ceases when you vacate your accommodation at 12 noon on your departure day.

DRESS CODE
2. Your holiday booking
Most 3, 4 and 5-star hotels enforce a minimum dress code for dining in the restaurants in the evenings. In effect, this means no jeans, no shorts, no trainers and no swimwear for both men and women. This is only a guideline and requirements may vary between hotels, therefore it is advisable to check on arrival at your chosen hotel.
A contract will exist as soon as you we issue our confirmation invoice. If you book your holiday via a travel agent a contract will exist once you ask the travel agent to confirm the booking on your behalf. This booking is made on the terms of these booking conditions. When you make a booking you guarantee that you have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions.
TRAVEL AND HEALTH ADVICE Before you go overseas, check out the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website at www.fco.gov. uk/knowbeforeyougo; it is packed with essential travel advice and tips, and up-to-date country information. Useful health advice and information can be found on the Department of Health’s website at www.dh.gov.uk/travellers they also produce a leaflet entitled “Advice on Health for Travellers”. Please speak to your GP or Practice Nurse if you have any queries regarding your health and travel arrangements.
EHIC You should obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) prior to travel. The EHIC entitles all UK residents to reduced cost (sometimes free) health care, if necessary, whilst travelling in most European countries. The quickest way to get an EHIC is to apply online at www.dh.gov.uk/travellers as customers will receive it within 7 days. Alternatively, customers can call the EHIC Application Line on 0845 606 2030 or pick up an application pack from local Post Offices. It can take up to 21 days for the EHIC to arrive if applied for by post. Please remember that the EHIC is an addition to travel insurance and should not be relied upon instead of travel insurance. Some insurance policies may be deemed invalid without the EHIC and you should check with your insurance provider before travelling.
When you make your booking you must pay a deposit of a minimum of £250 per person. The deposit payable may vary according to destination and product. Please note that if your booking includes a scheduled flight the price of the flight may be payable in full at the time of booking dependent upon the class of fare booked.

Booking conditions 5. If You Change Your Booking If, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to change your travel arrangements in any way, for example your chosen departure date or accommodation, we will do our utmost to make these changes but it may not always be possible.

7. If we change your booking (a) Changes to the price We can change your holiday price after you’ve booked, only in certain circumstances: Changes in the price of the carriage of passengers resulting from changes to the cost of fuel or other power sources, the level of taxes or fees imposed by third parties including tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports or exchange rates, mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. However, there will be no change within 20 days of your departure. We will absorb, and you will not be charged for, 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 results in an increase equivalent to more than 8% 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 (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. Should you decide to cancel: 1) you must do so within the time period shown on your final invoice

We will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where we aren’t able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. 2.
