Terms and Conditions

This is the user agreement which governs your use of this website or, if relevant, one of our other distribution channels (such as Interactive TV ("IDTV"), mobile telephone commerce ("WAP") or interactive voice technology ("IVT") (the "Channels") and the purchase by you of the services and products we provide. Each Channel is owned and operated by a member of the lastminute.com limited group ("lastminute.com", "we", "us") however not all of the products or services we provide are supplied by us, therefore the contract for the product and/or service will be between you and that third party.

General Section - please note that this section relates generally to your use of any Channel and to all products purchased.

1. Please take time to read these terms and conditions it is important for both of us that you understand our contractual relationship relating to your use of the Channels. We will not allow you to purchase any products from any of the Channels unless you have confirmed that you have read these terms.
   
   
2. Except for the sale of a very small number of products (such as, for some entertainment tickets) our Channels operate to an agency model. This means that we act as a disclosed agent for third party suppliers, such as a tour operator, hotel or a restaurant. What this means is that the contract for the product is between you and the supplier. In most cases this will mean that there are additional terms and conditions governing the contract as each supplier will have terms and conditions relating to that product. Please make sure that you have read these terms and conditions before completing your transaction with us. You can easily request them from our Customer Services by using one of the methods detailed at the end of these terms. Where we act as agent this will mean that we have no contractual liability to you in respect of that product. However, we may still be liable to you if we have been negligent, we have misrepresented important information or have been in breach of any other relevant law. On the other hand, for some products, we act as principal. This means that the contract for the product is between you and us. Don't worry we will let you know where we act as principal and where we act as agent.
   
   
3. All products sold through lastminute.com's Channels are not an offer by lastminute.com to sell any product, but an invitation to you to make an offer to our suppliers. We are free to accept that offer on behalf of those suppliers or to reject it. In some cases, we may send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order. Once we have processed your order, we will send you an e-mail confirming the contract if you are purchasing from the website, from other Channels the confirmation may be different. For example when purchasing via WAP we will send you an SMS or via IVT our acceptance will be communicated when the product is delivered. The method of concluding a contract will be made clear on the relevant Channel.
   
   
4. Because the contract for the product is between you and the supplier any queries or concerns relating to the product should be addressed to them. You will see the name and address, plus contact details, for most suppliers at the bottom of the more info section for each product and for all suppliers in any confirmatory e-mail we send you. We will of course assist you with this if you wish - please contact Customer Services.
   
   
5. Where your contract is not with lastminute.com but with a third party supplier such as a tour operator or hotel, lastminute.com may pass your credit card (or details of any other payment method allowed) and any other essential booking details to that third party. The placing of an order for any goods and services by you will constitute consent to us passing on such details.
   
   
6. Please make sure that you have read and understood the more info sections on the Channels, it is your responsibility to make sure you have done so.
   
   
7. You undertake to us that the details you give to us while using the Channels are correct in particular that the credit or debit card you are using is your own and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the product or service.
   
   
8. If there are any changes to the details supplied to us by you it is your responsibility to inform lastminute.com via our web form or by contacting our Customer Services as soon as possible.
   
   
9. We won't send you e-mails which you do not want but we can't guarantee that third parties to whom your details are sent won't do so.
   
   
10. Our Channels will not stop you from making impossible bookings such as two flights to the same place at the same time or a flight to one place and theatre tickets to another at the same time. If you make that kind of booking we won't give you a refund.
    
    
11. We will do our best to correct errors and omissions as quickly as practicable after being notified of them. However because of the sophisticated technology that is required in operating lastminute.com there may be times when obvious errors occur. For example, very occasionally, this may result in a price, product or service or other detail displayed or presented on a Channel being incorrect. In this case we reserve the right to cancel that contract, but this of course will be without any liability to you.
    
    
12. lastminute.com does not make any warranty that the website is free from infection by viruses or anything else that has contaminating or destructive properties.
    
    
13. Credit card companies charge us a fee when you pay with their cards and therefore a credit card fee is applied to some travel bookings made with Visa, MasterCard or American Express credit cards. Currently, credit card fees are charged on flights, flight and hotel packages and hotel bookings.

Specific Terms - Please note these terms only relate to the purchase of the specific products to which they relate. Please note if there is a conflict or ambiguity between these Special Terms and the General Terms the Special Terms shall prevail:

(i) Regular Flights

1. When you purchase a flight from lastminute.com you are using a service provided by Globepost Limited, a company which is a member of the lastminute.com limited group.
   
   
2. Globepost Limited is registered in England and Wales with registered number 01700807. Its registered address is 77 Hatton Garden, London, EC1N 8JS.
   
   
3. Generally, the more flexible the ticket the more expensive it is likely to be and you need to take various points into consideration before deciding between the fares on offer.
   
   
4. To help you, below are Globepost Limited's general booking conditions. Please read them carefully.
   
   
5. Contract
   
   Any booking made or order placed by you, whether through the lastminute.com website or otherwise, shall be deemed an offer by you to purchase the relevant items subject to these booking conditions. Note that Globepost Limited are selling the tickets as agents for the airlines, which means the contract for the flight product will be between you and the airline.
   
   Please note that for each ticket there are additional terms which are specific to that fare. They may, for example, state that the ticket is non-cancellable or non - refundable, and have other information relating to itinerary and refunds. You must read the FLIGHT RULES for each ticket. You can find the relevant FLIGHT RULES on the lastminute.com website when you progress through the purchase path.
   
   You are responsible for complying with any airline's terms in relation to check-in times, reconfirmation of flights or other matters. In relation to flight tickets, you are required to use all flight coupons in order of sequence. If this requirement is not met the airline may void the ticket.
   
   A contract arises between you and the airline when we send you a confirmation e-mail on behalf of Globepost Limited confirming that they have accepted your booking.
   
   
6. Fares
   
   All fares are quoted exclusive of taxes, plus the tax amount and then a total. These are added together to form your final quotation. Fares are subject to change without prior notice and are only guaranteed when following confirmation of the contract.
   
   
7. Reservations
   
   In the vast majority of cases Globepost becomes aware of the availability of flights tickets for sale because it connects to large databases operated by third parties, which contain that availability. These databases are commonly called General Distribution Systems (GDS) or Central Reservation Systems (CRS), and it is through these GDS/CRS that Globepost purchases the relevant ticket.
   

   Be aware that certain airlines do not maintain "real time" seat availability in the GDS/CRS. Whilst every effort is made to reflect the true situation, instances may occur when airlines cancel sales. Globepost Limited will advise you within 48 hours if this is the case and will do all they can to reinstate your booking.

   Further, there are a tiny number of airlines which participate in the GDS/CRS, but do not participate in the UK Ticketing plan. In the unlikely event that you purchase tickets from an airline that does not participate in the UK Ticketing Plan, Globepost will be unable to issue the relevant tickets, and will have to terminate the reservation.

   In either instance we will not be liable for any additional costs incurred in having to purchase new tickets at a higher fare. Payment for tickets will of course be refunded to you if the reservation is terminated by the airline or us.
   

8. Tickets
   
   If it is not possible to get your flight tickets to you (eg because your travel date is imminent) we may insist that you have an "e-ticket" generated. This means that you will have to pick up your ticket at your point of departure. Don't worry, Globepost will make sure you know exactly where to pick up your tickets.
   
   
F
9. Flight Reconfirmation
   
   Globepost Limited accepts no responsibility for bookings cancelled due to non-compliance with rules set by that particular airline. Globepost also take no responsibility for any flight rescheduling en route.
   
   In the event of a schedule change it is not always necessary to have your tickets revalidated, however in the event that this is necessary we will inform you in due course and issue new tickets for you to use on your journey.
   
   
10. Passports/Visas/Health Requirements
    
    Globepost and lastminute.com are very happy to inform you of current documentation requirements if you so require. It is incumbent upon you to ensure that you meet the passport, visa, health requirements of the countries you wish to visit and those that you transit (even if it is for a plane change). Many countries require that your passport should be valid for a period of (a minimum) six months from the date of arrival into that country. Neither Globepost nor lastminute.com accept any responsibility if you should be denied boarding or deported due to non-fulfilment of the above.
    
    
11. Insurance
    
    Globepost strongly urges you to carry appropriate travel insurance to cover you for cancellation, health, baggage etc.
    
    
12. Airline regulations/conditions of carriage
    
    Please note that in all transactions Globepost acts as agents of the airlines you have chosen to book on. Please read your ticket wallet for their conditions of carriage.
    
    
13. Cancellation / Amendments
    
    If you need to change or cancel your travel plans, it is your responsibility to notify Globepost of such a request. Please note that some tickets are non-refundable and/or do not allow changes.
    
    Where changes/refunds are permitted by the airline, Globepost applies an amendment fee of £45 per person for any modifications, changes or cancellations to fares. This will be regardless of the price or face value of the fare. Please note this fee is also charged in cases of airport tax refunds, when the fare is non-refundable. Any booking fees or credit card charges are non-refundable.
    
    In addition to the Globepost charges, most airlines also have a penalty or cancellation fee for any changes or cancellations to fares. Please ensure you read the FLIGHT RULES for the fare selected as cancellation and amendment charges imposed by the airline are notified in the flight rules. If you are holding a booking for which a ticket has been issued and you do not notify us of your desire to cancel, this will be treated as a "no show" and could result in you losing all that you paid.
    
    If you want to cancel your journey it is important that you notify us with utmost urgency. This enables us to cancel your reservation with the airline. To notify us of your request for an amendment or cancellation, please contact our Customer Services Team by telephone or via email, using our online contact form, or through your purchase history. .
    
    Should you have received a paper ticket, we require the original ticket to be returned to us at the below address.
    
    Flight ticket returns
    lastminute.com
    Trinity Square
    23-59 Staines Road
    Hounslow
    TW3 3HE
    
    On receipt of the ticket we will send you an acknowledgement that we have received it. If you have been issued an e-ticket, we do not require the ticket to be returned to us.
    
    Those tickets, which are refundable or cancelled by us, will be processed and refunded back to the card used at time of booking. Please be advised that the cancellation process could take up to 16 weeks from receipt of the ticket. Some tickets may need to be submitted to the airline for the cancellation and/or refund to be authorized. In this event your refund request may take longer, but we will advise you in our acknowledgement of the expected turnaround period. Please note that most airlines do not refund on part used tickets. Tickets, which are returned more than 1 year from date of issue, are classified as expired tickets and must be submitted to the airline for their authority to refund.
    
    
14. Lost Tickets
    
    If you lose your tickets, it may be possible to re-issue them for a fee. The amount payable will depend on the circumstances of the loss and how close to the travel date you discover it. However, not all tickets can be re-issued; which is another good reason for ensuring you have sufficient insurance cover. Tickets will be dispatched to you in accordance with your instructions and we accept no responsibility for their delivery. Lost tickets which cannot be re-issued are refunded at the sole discretion of the airline, these refunds can take up to one year to be authorized.
    
    
15. Liability
    
    As Globepost acts as agent this will mean that it will have no contractual liability to you in respect of the flight product. However, it may still be liable to you if it has been negligent, it has misrepresented important information or has been in breach of any other relevant law.
    
    
16. Unreasonable behaviour
    
    If in the reasonable opinion of a person acting in authority you are not fit to travel, he or she may refuse to let you board the aircraft. Normally this happens if such person thinks you are likely to disturb or harm other passengers. In this case your contract with Globepost will end immediately and we will no longer be responsible for you.
    
    

(ii) Charter Flights

1. In the sale of charter flights Globepost Limited (part of the lastminute.com plc group) acts as agent for various third party suppliers. The contract for the charter flight will be between you and the relevant supplier and you will be subject to their terms and conditions. To read those terms and conditions please click here.
   
   
2. In addition as we incur cost in administrating cancellations and modifications, if you ask us to administer any relevant cancellation and/or amendment on your behalf we will charge an amendment fee of £45. Please be aware that this fee will be in addition to any charge you may have to pay the supplier. Any booking fees or credit card charges are non-refundable.

   (iii) No Frills Flights

   Note: the service we provide for you in respect of the purchase of standalone (ie not part of a package holiday) no frills flights (eg from BMI Baby etc) is a different service than the service we provide for the sale of other airline tickets. These special terms apply to that service:

   1. In the sale of stand alone no frills flights (eg from BMI Baby etc) we will search the relevant no frills database, and then, if you choose to buy, will purchase the flight seats on your behalf directly from the airline. This service is provided by our Flights subsidiary company Globepost Limited.

   2. If you have any query in respect of the flight, please contact our customer services who will approach the relevant airline on your behalf. We will, of course, use our best endeavours to ensure that all of your requests are complied with, however, if the no frills airline imposes any fee or charge on us to effect these changes, we reserve the right to pass on the charge to you.

   3. You will be subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant no frills flights which will be deemed to be incorporated into this contract. They can be accessed from the relevant no frills website.

   4. Please note that all prices quoted for a No Frills airline booking include our service fee but exclude the charges for any checked in baggage allowance and passenger check-in fees where applicable. Baggage can be pre booked on our website when you complete your reservation for additional charge. Any other charges need to be paid directly to the airline upon check in at the airport.

   5. Remember if you purchase the no frills flight through our dynamic packaging technology to create a holiday package, your holiday will be governed, not by these terms, but by our dynamically packaged holiday terms and conditions below.
   

   (iv)FLIGHT-PLUS ATOL REGULATION

   1. When you purchase a flight and a hotel accommodation and/or car hire for the same trip with us, under the Air Traffic Operators License (“ATOL”) scheme, your travel arrangements will be considered Flight Plus and you will be protected provided the following requirements are met:

   2. If a Flight Plus is established and you also book any other tourist services which are not ancillary to the flight or overseas hotel accommodation and which account for a significant proportion of the travel arrangements then these other tourist services are also protected.

   3. Flight Plus will not exist for UK domestic flights and holidays, flight only ticket sales and flight and hotel accommodation and/or car hire booked outside the two calendar day window as well as hotel accommodation or car hire (or both) which are sold without a flight.

Your ATOL Certificate will be needed as proof of your protection. It is your responsibility to keep it in a safe place and we recommend you take a copy with you when travelling.

   6. If you cancel any part of your travel arrangements so that the Flight Plus no longer exists then you will no longer be protected under the ATOL scheme.

   7. As a Flight-Plus Arranger, and in accordance with the regulations if we become aware, prior to or after your departure, that the third party supplier who is responsible for providing the Product has become insolvent and will not themselves be able to supply you with the Product then we will provide you with suitable alternative arrangements at no extra cost (and if you have already departed and in the case of transport we will provide you with a suitable alternative transport back to the place of departure). If it is not reasonably possible to find alternative arrangements then we will give you a full refund for any unused component of your travel arrangements.

   8. We are not responsible for and not shall we be liable for the performance of the travel arrangements.

1. Your Contract

LM Travel Services Limited hold an Air Travel Organisers License (ATOL 3970) for your financial security and are members of ABTA (E7760). When booking entertainment package arrangements our contract with you begins when you receive the confirmation e-mail stating that we have received your order. Once the contract is made we are responsible for providing the entertainment package you have booked and you are responsible to us to pay for them. In parties of two or more people the person who makes the booking accepts responsibility for making payments to us for all members of the party.
   Consumer Protection
   Entertainment packages which include a flight booking on this web site are ATOL Protected, since we hold an Air Travel Organiser's Licence granted by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our ATOL number is ATOL 3970. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, 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.
   
   
2. How to make a booking
   To secure a booking you must fill in all the relevant fields on the online booking form and then wait for us to send you an e-mail confirming that booking.
   
   
3. Payments
   Unless otherwise specified on the website we take full payment by credit / debit card for your entertainment package when you book. PLEASE NOTE: The Destination Group does not accept payment using third party credit/debit cards. Only travelling passengers can make payments using their own credit/debit card.
   
   
4. Additional Charges
   We reserve the right to change our prices at any time before you book. If we do you will be told of the revised price applicable to your booking before you commit yourself. As soon as you have paid full payment and your entertainment package arrangements have been confirmed we guarantee that from 30 days before your departure date that the price of your entertainment package will not be subject to any surcharges excepting for :-
   
   
   1. variations in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel;
   2. variations in dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports;
   
   
   
   and that within 30 days of your departure date we guarantee that the price of your entertainment package will not be subject to any surcharges.
   Should the above mentioned price variations be downward then the price of your entertainment package will be accordingly reduced and any refund due paid to you.
   If the above price variations mean that the cost of your entertainment package goes up, we will absorb, and you will not be charged for, any increase equal to up to 2% on your entertainment package price. You will only have to pay the amount over and above that 2% of the entertainment package price. If the above price variations increase the price of your entertainment package by more than 10% you will be entitled to;
   
   
   1. take our offered substitute package of equivalent or superior quality if we are able to provide one
   2. take our offered substitute package of lower quality if we are able to provide one and accept a refund from us of the difference in price between the price of the package purchased and the substitute one offered
   3. cancel your entertainment package with a full refund of all monies paid.
   
   
   We will also pay appropriate compensation for SIGNIFICANT CHANGES or cancellation of your entertainment package arrangements unless the change to or cancellation of your arrangements occurs by reason of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control or that of our suppliers, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised such as war, a state of war, riot, fire, civil strife, industrial action, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions or other conditions amounting to force majeure. In these circumstances we will also not pay any resulting expenses or additional costs. Where compensation is due, we will pay you the following amounts, unless you can prove a greater loss (where a greater compensation payment may be due):

   Time before your entertainment package begins when we tell you about a significant change	Compensation per person
   More than 56 days	Nil
   43 - 56 days	�10
   29 - 42 days	�20
   15 - 28 days	�30
   14 days or less	�50

   
   
   
5. Changes by us to, or cancellation by us of, your entertainment package arrangements It is very unlikely that we will have to make any changes to, or to cancel, your entertainment package. However, we do plan arrangements a long time in advance and we use the services of independent suppliers, such as hotels, airlines etc, over whom we have no direct control. If it is the case that changes need to be made, or we need to cancel your arrangements, we reserve the right to do so at any time. Most of these changes are minor, and we do not pay compensation for minor changes, but whenever possible we will advise you. Any flight timings and carriers in the brochure or on our websites are subject to change as a result of airline procedures and these details are given for guidance only. Final details will be shown on your tickets.
   
   If a SIGNIFICANT CHANGE to your entertainment package occurs or becomes necessary, we will inform you as soon as possible if there is time before departure. When a SIGNIFICANT CHANGE occurs (such as a change of venue, hotel or a change of flight time of more than 12 hours) or we have to cancel your arrangements, you will have the choice of:-
   
   
   1. accepting the change of arrangements
   2. taking our offered substitute package of equivalent or superior quality if we are able to provide one.
   3. taking our offered substitute package of lower quality if we are able to provide one and accept a refund from us of the difference in price between the price of the package purchased and the substitute one offered.
   4. cancelling your entertainment package with a full refund of all monies paid.
   
   
   We will also pay appropriate compensation for SIGNIFICANT CHANGES or cancellation of entertainment packages unless the change to or cancellation of your arrangements occurs by reason of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control or that of our suppliers, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised such as war, a state of war, riot, fire, civil strife, industrial action, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions or other conditions amounting to force majeure. In these circumstances we will also not pay any resulting expenses or additional costs. Where compensation is due, we will pay you the following amounts, unless you can prove a greater loss (where a greater compensation payment may be due):

   Time before your entertainment package begins when we tell you about a significant change	Compensation per person
   More than 56 days	Nil
   43 - 56 days	�10
   29 - 42 days	�20
   15 - 28 days	�30
   14 days or less	�50

   
   
   
6. Changes by you to your entertainment package arrangements
   If after our confirmation has been issued you wish to change any part of your entertainment package arrangements, we will make every effort to help you do this, subject to availability and the type of ultimate product suppliers (promoters, theatres, car-hire companies, hotels etc), you have chosen and their cancellation/change charges details of which will be provided to you on request at any time including prior to booking. If you want to change any details regarding your flight reservation, airline rules mean that we may have to cancel your original flight and purchase a new one and you will be required to pay the full flight cost again. We will charge you an administration charge of �45.00 per change per booking, and you will be liable to pay the hotel, car-hire, airline or other ultimate product charges resulting from your changes. NB: Once Airline Tickets are issued, usually 28 days prior to departure, changes are not permitted. Changes after airline tickets are issued will result in a 100% cancellation charge.
   
   
7. Cancellation by you
   If you wish to cancel your entertainment package for any other reason than for their being additional charges (see clause 4) or alterations (clause 5) we must be notified in writing. Cancellation will be deemed to occur on the day we receive this cancellation request so you may want to use recorded delivery. As this incurs administrative costs we will charge you an administration charge of �45.00 per person per booking, and you will be liable to pay the venue, theatre, hotel, car-hire, airline or other charges levied on us as a result of your cancellation, in regard to which we will take all reasonable steps to ensure are kept to a minimum.
   After ticket issue cancellation will result in a loss of 100% of total cost of all arrangements in most cases.
   You will have the opportunity to see specific cancellation charges at the time of booking and copies of all suppliers terms and conditions relating to your booking are available on request at any time. For example if you have included car hire as a component in your package entertainment package there are both additional terms and cancellation charges, they are detailed in clause 16 below. In addition if you have booked a tour and/or an excursion the cancellation charges (imposed upon us by our suppliers) are likely to be 100%.
   If you have taken out travel insurance and the reason you are cancelling is covered by that insurance, you should be able to obtain payment of these cancellation charges (after deducting any part of the claim which the insurance company insists you pay) from your insurance company. You must pay the cancellation charges first. Please make sure you get written confirmation of your cancellation from us - this proves we have received your cancellation and you will need it to make a claim on your insurance.
   
   
8. The Company's Liability to you
   We accept liability for matters which arise as a result of our negligence and/or breach of our contractual duty to exercise care in making arrangements for you, including any acts or omissions by our employees or agents. We also accept liability for any negligent act or omission of our suppliers who may operate elements of your entertainment package arrangements, including any claim involving death, personal injury or illness. However, in respect of carriage by air, sea and rail the company limits its liability to the extent of the relevant international convention. You are subjected to the terms and conditions of the carriers concerned some of which exclude or limit liability in respect of death, injury, delay and loss or damage to baggage. It is also important to note that if delays, diversions or rescheduling or cancellation of your arrangements occurs by reason of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control or that of our suppliers, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised such as war, a state of war, riot, fire, civil strife, industrial action, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions or other conditions amounting to force majeure we will not be liable. In these circumstances we will also not pay any resulting expenses or additional costs.
   
   
9. Claims and Complaints
   If you have a complaint regarding the entertainment package you must tell the relevant supplier (e.g. hotel) or our agent immediately. Most problems can be solved on the spot but if after you return home you are still not satisfied you must write to our customer relations department on your return. It is unlikely that you will have a complaint that cannot be settled amicably between us, however, if this is not the case any dispute arising out of, or in connection with this contract, may (if you wish) be referred to Arbitration under a special scheme, which, though devised by arrangement with the Association of British Travel Agents, is administered quite independently by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. The scheme provides for a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with restricted liability of the client in respect of costs. The scheme does not apply to claims for an amount greater than �5,000.00 per person or �15,000.00 per booking form or to claims which are solely or mainly in respect of physical injury or illness or the consequences of such injury or illness, although it does include claims with an element of injury or illness up to �1,000 on that element. Written notice requesting Arbitration must be made within 9 months after the scheduled date of return from the entertainment package.
   
   
10. Brochures and Web Sites
    Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of descriptions and information. However, we are not always able to control all the components of the entertainment package arrangements and it is possible that an advertised facility may be withdrawn or changed, due to weather conditions, lack of demand or for maintenance, renovations etc. We will advise you if we become aware of a major change. We will make all reasonable efforts to inform you of any changes at any stage in your booking prior to travel. We will advise you if we become aware of a major change (eg a change of venue, hotel, or a change of flight time of more than 12 hours, and if any changes occur after you have confirmed booking you should refer to clause 5 of these Terms and Conditions for the options available to you in these circumstances.
    
    
11. Passport/Visas/Health requirements
    Where your entertainment package includes overseas travel, we can only advise of the requirements for British and Irish passport holders. All requirements should be checked with the relevant Embassy of the destination country. A valid 10-year passport is necessary for all our entertainment packages. Some overseas countries have an immigration requirement that your passport is valid for a minimum period after you enter that country, typically 6 months. If your passport is in its final year of validity, we advise you confirm the requirements of the destination before making final travel plans. You should apply for a passport or to renew an expired passport at least four weeks before traveling.
    The UK Passport Agency can provide further information at: www.ukpa.gov.uk
    • Passports for children and young people:
      Children not already included on a valid British passport will need to hold their own passport if they are to travel abroad. Children who were included on a passport before 5 October 1998 may continue to travel with the passport holder until: * The child reaches the age of 16; or* The passport on which the child is included expires; or * The passport on which the child is included is replaced or an amendment results in the issue of a new passport
      
    • Names:
      The name on the passport must match the name on the ticket, otherwise you may not be able to travel and insurance may be invalid. If, after booking a entertainment package but before traveling, any member of your party changes their name, e.g. as a result of getting married, we must be notified immediately so that we can make the necessary changes to your entertainment package documentation.
      
    • Visas:
      You should contact your Embassy for information and advice on the visa requirements of the countries you propose to visit. Please note: Passport and visa regulations can change and you should therefore check with the relevant embassy well in advance of travel, even if you have traveled to this destination before. It is your responsibility to be in possession of a valid passport and, if appropriate, a visa. It can often take some time to obtain a visa, so you are advised to apply in plenty of timeWe accept no responsibility for customers who do not possess the correct documents.
      
    • Health
      facilities, hygiene and disease risks vary worldwide. You should take health advice about your specific needs as early as possible. Sources of information include the Department of Health's free leaflet "Health Advice For Travellers", your GP or a specialist clinic.
