Changes in transport costs i.e. the cost of fuel, government taxes or exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have booked. However there will be no change within 30 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, plus an administration charge of £3.00pp together with an amount to cover agents commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than10% of the price of your travel arrangements, you will have the option to cancel your holiday with a full refund of all monies paid, 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.

We reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your travel arrangements. For example, if the minimum number of clients required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel it. An alternative holiday would be offered in the event of cancellation or a full refund would be made if the alternative were not acceptable. No holiday will be cancelled less than 28 days before departure. Minor alterations will be given to you at once. Any major changes will give you the option of cancelling without charge. Force majeure: we will not pay you compensation if we have to cancel or change your travel arrangements in any way because of unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control.These can include, for example, war, riot, industrial dispute, terrorist activity and its consequences, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, epidemics & pandemics, unavoidable technical problems with transport.
