You have responded back to the confirmation and have paid for the booking.

It may not be possible to make changes to your arrangements later so you should notify us of any inaccuracies in any documentation within 24 hours of our sending it out. It may harm your rights if you don’t.

The suppliers whose services make up your arrangements make those supplies in accordance with their own terms and conditions which will also form part of your agreement with us.

Bookings made eight weeks or less before departure must be paid for in full at the time of booking.
