WHAT ’ S INCLUDED AND EXTRAS

WHAT ’ S INCLUDED
TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS Scheduled return flight from London in World Traveller including UK departure taxes . Our prices are based on British Airways unless stated otherwise on each page ; Virgin Atlantic is sometimes offered as an alternative where available . Charter flights may also be offered subject to availability . Prices are based on outward and return flights being with the same airline . ( However , you may mix for example British Airways and Virgin but a supplement is applicable . Details on request .) Inter-island flights are included if applicable for your first hotel as described on each hotel page . Appropriate transfers to your hotel , usually by taxi , sometimes by private car or boat , as described on each hotel page are also included ( unless stated otherwise , usually only for hotels where it is more costeffective for you to purchase the travel arrangements locally ).
Our supplements for travel in services other than World Traveller or Economy are based on preferential rates with the airlines . These rates are based on availability at the time of booking in certain classes of service made available to us . The upgrade supplements allow you the check-in and on-board services associated with the cabin in which you are flying but do not allow you the usual flexibility with changing and cancelling associated with the full public fares for these services .
HOTEL ACCOMMODATION Usually based on two people sharing a room . Some prices are based on four people sharing a two-roomed suite or apartment . All rooms have at least private shower or bath and WC . A variety of board arrangements and room types are offered . Please refer to the individual hotel pages and our important information pages . Local service and government taxes are included .

WHAT ’ S OPTIONAL
EXTRA NIGHTS Flexibility is of key importance to us and our clients . There are basic holiday prices of 7 and 14 nights with extra nights offered . Therefore you can choose to stay 9 nights in one hotel , followed perhaps by 5 nights somewhere else . ( Some hotels do have minimum lengths of stay , particularly in high season .).
PERSONAL HOLIDAY INSURANCE This is essential in case of unforeseen cancellation and illness . We do not sell our own insurance but do advise that you take out adequate insurance at the time of booking your holiday if you do not have annual travel cover .
