Duties and taxes Even in this case, we will absorb an amount equivalent to 2% of the holiday price, which excludes any insurance premium, and any amendment charges. Only amounts in excess of this 2% will be surcharged. If this means paying more than an extra 10% on the holiday price, you will be entitled to cancel your holiday with a full refund of all money paid.

5. WHAT HAPPENS TO COMPLAINTS All complaints that we receive are thoroughly investigated and customers kept informed at each stage of the investigation. Sometimes the investigations can take time awaiting response from hoteliers. We can normally agree an amicable settlement of the few complaints we receive. Arbitration Conditions. Disputes arising out of or in connection with this contract which cannot be amicably settled, may (if the customer so wishes) be referred to arbitration under a special Scheme which, though devised by arrangements with the Confederation of Passenger Transport, is administered quite independently by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. The Scheme (details of which will be supplied on request ) provides a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with the restricted liability on the customer in respect of costs. The Scheme does not apply to claims for an amount greater than £1,500.00 per person. There is also a limit of £7,500.00 per bookings form.
