TEAM TRAVEL CARIBBEAN
Limited booking conditions
All holidays are organised and offered for sale in the United Kingdom by TEAM TRAVEL UK LTD (ATOL 10851) 27 Old Gloucester St. London WC1N 3 AX.
These conditions together with any other written information we brought to your attention before we confirmed your booking form the basis of your contract with us for the travel arrangements making up your booking (your ‘arrangements’ or ‘trip’). Please read them carefully as they set out our respective rights and obligations. By making a booking, you agree to be bound by all of them. A ‘package’ and ‘lack of conformity’ have the same meaning as in the Package and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018.
In these booking conditions, references to “you” and “your” include the first named person on the booking (the Tour Group Leader, who will be our sole point of correspondence and contact) and all persons named on the booking (including anyone added or substituted at a later date).
By making a booking, the first named person on the booking agrees on behalf of all persons detailed on the booking that:
- He/she has read these terms and conditions and has the authority to and does agree to be bound by them;
- He/she consents to our use of information in accordance with our Data Protection Policy (see clause 17);
- He/she is over 18 years of age and resident in the United Kingdom and where placing an order for services with age restrictions declares that he/she and all members of the party are of the appropriate age to purchase those services.
The key terms of our agreement are:
- You will enter into a binding contract with us when we issue you our confirmation invoice. If you then cancel your arrangements, you will be required to pay cancellation charges. Initially this will be the deposit you paid to secure your arrangements, but after you have paid the balance of the price of your arrangements, these charges will increase up to 100% of the cost of them, the closer you cancel to the date you travel.
- You can make changes to your confirmed arrangements in certain circumstances. We will make a charge for processing these changes.
- We may make changes to and cancel your confirmed arrangements, but we will pay you compensation in certain circumstances if we do so
- We are responsible for making sure your confirmed arrangements are not preformed negligently but there are some limits on and exceptions to this.
Your financial security
Holidays involving air travel are financially protected by Team Travel limited bond with the Civil Aviation Authority ATOL 10851. The CAA will financially protect your holiday in the same way to ensure that you are not left stranded abroad, and will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking except where your contracted arrangements with us do not include transport to and from the UK. In this case, if already abroad, you will be returned to the point where your contracted arrangements with us commenced. The price of our flight inclusive arrangements includes the amount of £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices. When you buy an ATOL protected flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong.
Many of the flight-inclusive holidays advertised on this website are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. But ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday and travel services advertised or shown on this website. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking. If you receive an ATOL certificate but all parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected. For more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOL.Certificate(opens in a new tab)
We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable).
If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme
When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday, all money accepted from you by a travel agent acting as our agent is held by that agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust at all times, but subject to the agent’s obligation to pay it to us for so long as we do not fail. If we do fail, any money held at that time by the agent, or subsequently accepted from you by the agent, is and continues to be held by that agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation to pay that money to us.
When you buy arrangements other than an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday, all money accepted from you by a travel agent acting as our agent is held by that agent on our behalf at all times.
If you book arrangements other than an ATOL protected flight or a package tour, the financial protection referred to above does not apply.
1. Description, prices & payment
Important note: the information and prices shown may have changed by the time you come to book your arrangements. Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of the information and prices at the time of publication, regrettably errors do occasionally occur. You must therefore ensure you check the price and all other details of your chosen arrangements with us at the time of booking. Should we become aware of the need to revise information or prices, we may do so by informing you before we accept your booking. In this case the revised information or prices will be considered to form part of our contract with you as if they had originally been published in our brochure and/or on our website.
Bookings can be made by calling us or by completing and signing the booking form, which you will need to post to us along with your deposit. Bookings confirmed by telephone with a deposit payment taken, are considered as legally binding verbal agreements and are subject to the same booking conditions as a booking confirmed in writing.
Once we have received all appropriate payments, we will, subject to availability, confirm your holiday by issuing a confirmation invoice. A binding contract between us comes into existence when we despatch our confirmation invoice to the party leader. Upon receipt, if you believe that any details on the confirmation (or any other document) are wrong you must advise us immediately as changes cannot be made later. Your balance payment is due no less than 13 weeks prior to departure, for which we will not issue a reminder.

If we do not receive all payments due in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you. In this case the cancellation charges set out in clause 2 will be payable.
2. Changes and cancellation by you
If you wish to change any part of your arrangements after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you must inform us in writing as soon as possible. We have no obligation to make these changes, however we will do our best to help. Where we can meet a request, all changes will be subject to an administration fee of £25.00. The administration fee we charge is in addition to any charges levied by ground operators, hotels or airlines. It should also be noted that a reduction in or increase in the numbers travelling in the group from those originally booked may have an effect on the overall price per person. In other words, the price per person may be increased as your tour price will be recalculated for the new party size. The price of your new travel arrangements will be based on the prices that apply on the day you ask for a change. These prices may not be the same as when you made your first booking. Where we are unable to assist you and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking, we will treat this as a cancellation by you. A cancellation fee may be payable.
If your arrangements are a package and if any member of your party is prevented from travelling, that person(s) may transfer their place to someone else (introduced by you and satisfying all the conditions applicable to the arrangements, including an agreement to these booking conditions) providing we are notified in writing not less than seven days before departure and you pay an amendment fee and meet all the costs and charges incurred by us/ or imposed by us or any of our suppliers. Both you and the person to whom you would like to transfer your arrangements shall be jointly liable for the payment of any balance due and for any additional fees, charges, or other costs arising from the transfer. If you are unable to find a replacement, cancellation charges as set out below will apply in order to cover our estimated costs. Otherwise no refunds will be given to passengers not travelling or for unused services. As most Airlines do not permit name changes after tickets have been issued for any reason, for flight inclusive bookings, you will have to pay the full cost of an alternative flight (if available) if you wish to transfer after tickets have been issued.
Note: Certain arrangements may not be amended after they have been confirmed and any alteration could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements.
Cancellation must be made by the tour group leader in writing or email and it will take effect when it is received by us. You will receive an invoice confirming your cancellation within two weeks of receiving your correspondence. Since we incur costs in cancelling your arrangements, you will have to pay the applicable cancellation charges up to the maximum shown below. (The cancellation charge detailed is calculated on the basis of the total cost payable by the person(s) cancelling excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges which are not refundable in the event of the person(s) to whom they apply cancelling.)
Date cancellation: received cancellation amount
- After deposit received: deposit
- weeks prior to travelling: interim payment
- 13 weeks or less: 100% of total price
3. Changes & cancellation by us
On tours and packages, we start planning many months in advance. Occasionally, we have to make changes to and corrected errors in brochure and other details both before and after bookings have been confirmed and cancel confirmed bookings. Whilst we always endeavour to avoid changes and cancellations, we must reserve the right to do so. Most changes are minor. Occasionally, we have to make a “significant change”. If we make a significant change before departure (for example, a change of accommodation to that of a lower official classification or standard for the whole or a major part of the time you are away, a change of scheduled outward departure time of twelve or more hours, a change of UK departure point to one which is significantly less convenient for you and, in the case of tours, a significant change of itinerary missing out one or more major destination substantially or altogether we will tell you as soon as possible. If there is time to do so before departure, we will offer you the choice of the following options:
- For significant changes, accepting the changed arrangements.
- Purchasing an alternative holiday from us, of a similar standard to that originally booked if available. If the chosen alternative is more expensive you may be asked to pay the difference, but if it is cheaper, you will receive a pro rata refund.
- Cancelling or accepting the cancellation in which case you will receive a full and quick refund of all monies you have paid to us. You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer. If you fail to do so we will assume that you have chosen to accept the change or alternative booking arrangements. The above options are not available where any change made is a minor one. If we have to make a significant change or cancel, we will pay you reasonable compensation if appropriate, depending on the circumstances and when the significant change or cancellation is notified to you subject to the following exceptions.
Compensation will not be payable and no liability beyond offering the above mentioned choices can be accepted where we are forced to make a change or cancel as a result of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequence of which we could have avoided even with all due care or where we are forced to cancel due to an insufficient number of people having booked the holiday in question (in which case we will notify you no later than eight weeks prior to your date of departure).
No compensation will be payable and the above options will not be available if we cancel as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel (such as paying on time) or if the change made is a minor one or where the change(s) or cancellation by us arises out of alterations to the confirmed booking requested by you.
Please note: where arrangements with a higher price than the original ones are offered by us and accepted by you, the difference in price will be deducted from any compensation payable. In no case will we pay compensation if arrangements are offered by us and accepted by you with a higher price than that originally booked with the same itinerary where no additional payment is made by you.
4. Flights
In accordance with EU Directive (EC) No. 2111/2005 Article 9, we are required to bring to your attention the existence of a “Community list” which contains details of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban with the EU Community. The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/list_en.htm.
In accordance with EU regulations, we are required to advise you of the carrier(s) (or, if the carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. We are not always in a position at the time of booking to confirm the aircraft type and flight timings which will be used in connection with your flight. The flight timings and types of aircraft shown in this brochure and detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. The latest timings will be shown on your tickets which will be dispatched to you approximately two weeks before departure. You must accordingly check your tickets very carefully immediately on receipt to ensure you have the correct flight times. It is possible that flight times may be changed even after tickets have been dispatched – we will contact you as soon as possible if this occurs. Any change in the identity of the carrier, flight timings, and/or aircraft type will not entitle you to cancel or change to other arrangements without paying our normal charges except where specified in these conditions. If the carrier with whom you have a confirmed reservation becomes subject to an operating ban as above as a result of which we/the carrier are unable to offer you a suitable alternative the provisions of clause 3 (Changes and cancellation by us) will apply. Under EU Law, you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from the airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU Airports and will also be available from airlines. Reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday price from us. Your rights to a refund and/or compensation from us are set out in clause 3 above. If the airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the air transport users council on 020 7240 6061 http://www.auc.org.uk. Please note that in accordance with Air Navigation Orders in order to qualify for infant status, a child must be under 2 years of age on the date of its return flight.
We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to any of the reasons set out in the ‘force majeure’ section of clause 9 of these booking conditions (which includes the behaviour of any passenger(s) on for any passenger who, for example, fails to check in or board on time). A delay or cancellation to your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight. However, you may be entitled to claim under the flight delay section of your travel insurance policy.
This brochure is our responsibility, as your tour operator. It is not issued on behalf of, and does not commit the airlines mentioned herein or any airline whose services are used in the course of your travel arrangements.
5. Passports, visas, health formalities & travel documents
It is your responsibility to check and fulfil the passport visa, health and immigration requirements applicable to your itinerary. We can only provide general information about this. You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates and your Doctor as applicable. Requirements do change and you must check the up to date position in good time before departure.
A full 10-year British passport is required for all our holidays. If you do not hold a valid 10 year British passport, please note it can take up to twelve weeks to obtain a new one. If you or any member of your party is not a British citizen or holds a non British passport, you must check passport and visa requirements with the Embassy or Consulate of the country(ies) to or through which you are intending to travel. You must ensure you have the correct travel documents in your possession before departure, failing which you will be liable for any costs, which you or we may incur as a result. Please note that, very occasionally, a last minute change may entail entering an additional country. Please note children must now have their own passport. For all passport enquiries contact the UK Passport Agency(opens in a new tab) on 08705 210 410 or
It is your responsibility to ensure that you are fit to travel and to take all necessary medication etc. with you. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel, or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. You agree to reimburse us in relation to any fines or other losses which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. Any cancellation that arises due to visa/passport requirement will be subject to the cancellation charges detailed above.
6. Accommodation
Any accommodation we arrange for you must only be used by the names stated on your confirmation document (or most up to date, amended documentation).
We have no control over the local organisation of your billets (homestay) accommodation. We use schools/clubs who have offered this hospitality previously. It is your responsibility to tell us if you are unhappy with this accommodation. We are responsible if you decide what you have been offered is unsatisfactory. Once written confirmation of these has been obtained by us/our local agent neither we nor our local agent can be financially responsible for any withdrawal or alteration of this offer. Should this occur, we undertake to provide the most suitable alternative at the time, at the least possible expense to you, with any hotel accommodation required in place of billets to be on a bed and breakfast basis only. An indication of possible additional costs can be provided on request at any time.
7. Sports fixtures
With regards to fixtures we will do our best to arrange suitable opponents on the basis that you provide with us with the date of birth and standard of play, however we have no control of the final selection of the oppositions standard or their ages and will not be held responsible for this minor change. In addition fixtures are subject to change due to weather conditions, venue availability and opponent no shows.
8. Our responsibility to you
We promise to make sure that the holiday arrangements we have agreed to make, perform or provide as applicable as part of our contract with you are made, performed or provided with reasonable skill and care. This means that, subject to these booking conditions, we will accept responsibility if, for example, you suffer death or personal injury or your contracted holiday arrangements are not provided as promised or prove deficient as a result of the failure of ourselves, our employees, agents or suppliers to use reasonable skill and care in making, performing or providing, as applicable, your contracted holiday arrangements. Please note it is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make a claim against us. In addition, we will only be responsible for what our employees, agents and Suppliers do or do not do if they were at the time acting within the course of their employment (for employees) or carrying out work we had asked them to do )for agents and suppliers).
We will not be responsible for any injury, illness, death, loss (for example loss of enjoyment), damage, expense, cost or other sum or claim of any description whatsoever which results from any of the following:
- The act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected or any member(s) of their party; or
- The act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable; or
- “Force majeure” as defined in clause 9 below.
Please note, we cannot accept responsibility for any services which do not form part of our contract. This includes, for example, any additional services or facilities which any other supplier agrees to provide for you where the services of facilities are not advertised in our brochure and we have not agreed to arrange them, or any excursion you purchase on board. In addition, regardless of any wording used by us on our website, in any of our brochures or elsewhere, we only promise to use reasonable skill and care as set out above and we do not have any greater or different liability to you.
The services and facilities included in your holiday will be deemed to be provided with reasonable skill and care if they comply with any local regulations which apply, or, if there are no applicable local regulations, if they are reasonable when compared to the local standards in practice. The fact that services or facilities fail to comply with local or UK guidance or advice shall not of itself mean that the services or facilities in question have not been provided with reasonable skill and care.
As set out in these booking conditions we limit the maximum amount we may have to pay you for any claims you may make against us which do not involve personal injury, illness or death. Except where loss of and/or damage to luggage or personal possessions is concerned if we are found liable to you on any basis the maximum amount we will have to pay you is twice the price (excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges) paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total unless a lower limitation applies to your claim under clause 8 (6) below. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit at all from your holiday.
Where any claim or part of a claim (including those involving death or personal injury) concerns or is based on any travel arrangements (including the process of getting on and/or off the transport concerned) provided by any air, sea, rail or road carrier or any stay in a hotel, the maximum amount of compensation we will have to pay you will be limited. The most we will have to pay you for that claim or that part of a claim if we are found liable to you on any basis is the most the carrier or hotel keeper concerned would have to pay under the international convention or regulation which applies to the travel arrangements or hotel stay in question (for example, the Warsaw Convention as amended or unamended and the Montreal Convention for international travel by air and/or for airlines with an operating licence granted by an EU country, the EC Regulation on Air Carrier Liability No. 889/2002 for national and international travel by air, the Athens convention for international travel by sea). Please note: Where a carrier or hotel would not be obliged to make any payment to you under the applicable international convention or regulation in respect of a claim or part of a claim, we similarly are not obliged to make a payment to you for that claim or part of the claim. When making any payment, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from the transport provider or hotelier for the complaint or claim in question. Copies of the applicable International Conventions and Regulations are available from us on request.
In any circumstances in which the carrier is liable to you by virtue of the Denied Boarding Regulation 2004, any liability we may have to you under our contract with you, arising out of the same facts, is limited to the remedies provided under the Regulation as if (for this purpose only) we were a carrier; ay sums you receive from the carrier will be deducted from any amount due from ourselves.
Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss, expense or other sum(s) of any description (i) which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you or (ii) which did not result from any breach of contract or other fault by ourselves or our employees or, where we are responsible for them, our suppliers. Additionally we cannot accept liability for any business losses.
You must provide ourselves and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require. You must also tell us and the supplier concerned about your claim or complaint as set out in clause 15 below, if asked to do so, you must transfer to us or our insurers any rights you have against the supplier or whoever else is responsible for your claim or complaint (if the person concerned is under 18, their parent or guardian must do so). You must also agree to co-operate fully with us and our insurers if we or our insurers want to enforce any rights which are transferred.
9. Unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances
Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions, we will not be liable or give you a price reduction or compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances beyond the control of the party who seeks to rely on them which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not avoid even if all reasonable measures had been taken. avoid. These events can, but not limited to war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, actual or threatened terrorist activity, the act of any government or other national or local authority, including port authorities, industrial dispute, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions, fire and all similar events outside our or the supplies concerned control. Advice from the Foreign office to avoid or leave a particular country may constitute unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances as may any consequences of the UK’s decision to leave the European union or any consequence of it so leaving.
10. Suppliers’ conditions
Many of the services which make up your holiday are provided by independent suppliers. Some of these terms and conditions may limit or exclude the supplier’s liability to you, usually in accordance with the applicable International Conventions (see clause 5 (6)). Copies of the relevant parts of these terms are available on request from ourselves.
11. Delay
We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to “force majure” as defined above. A delay to or cancellation of your transport service does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your transport. However, you may be entitled to claim under the delay section of your travel insurance policy.
12. Conduct & behaviour
If in our opinion or in the opinion of any other person in authority, your behaviour or that of any member of your party is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any of our other guests or any third party or damage to property, or to cause a delay or diversion to transportation, we reserve the right to terminate your booking arrangements with us immediately. In the event of such termination our liability to you and/or your party will cease and you and/or your party will be required to leave your accommodation or other service immediately. We will have no further obligations to you and/or your party. No refunds for lost services will be made and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of termination. You and/or your party may also be required to pay for loss and/or damage or losses caused by your actions and we will hold you and each member of your party jointly and individually liable for any damage or losses caused by you or any member of your party. Full payment for any such damage or losses must be paid directly to the applicable supplier prior to departure from the service in question. If you fail to make payment, you will be responsible for meeting any claims (including legal costs) subsequently made against us as a result of your actions together with all costs we incur in pursuing any claim against you. We cannot be held responsible for the actions or behaviour of other guests or individuals who have no connection with your booking arrangements or with us.
13. Disabilities, medical conditions & special requests
We will give you information about whether the arrangements you have chosen are generally suitable for persons with reduced mobility but if you or any member of your party has any precise medical problem or disability which may affect your chosen arrangements, please provide us with full details before we issue our confirmation. We will only provide precise information on the suitability of the trip or holiday taking into account your needs if you specifically request us to do so.
If you have any special request, you must advise us in writing at the time of booking. Although we will endeavour to pass any reasonable requests on to the relevant supplier, we regret we cannot guarantee any request will be met unless we have specifically confirmed this. For your own protection, you should obtain confirmation in writing from us that your request will be complied with (where it is possible for us to give this) if your request is important to you.
If we reasonably feel unable to properly accommodate the particular needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking. If full details are not given at the time of booking, cancellation may be necessary (in which case we will impose applicable cancellation charges) when we become aware of these details. Unless and until specifically confirmed, all special request are subject to availability. We regret we cannot accept conditional bookings ie any booking which is specified to be conditional on the fulfilment of a particular request. All such bookings will be treated as ‘standard’ bookings subject to the above provisions on special requests.
We and the supplier concerned reserve the right to refuse boarding in the event that we reasonably feel that an individual is not fit to travel. We will deem that person unfit to travel if in the 48 hours or less before sailing they have suffered with any medical symptoms suggestive of a viral illness including but not limited to diarrhoea, vomiting, high temperature or other flu-like symptoms.
14. Insurance
It is a condition of booking with us that you take out appropriate travel insurance and you must provide details of your policy to us before you travel. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.
15. Complaints
If you experience a problem during your holiday, you must report it immediately to the relevant airline, ground handler, hotelier or other supplier, so that prompt efforts can be made to resolve the problem. At the time of booking you will be provided with emergency contact details should you need to contact us urgently. In the unlikely event that a problem cannot be resolved at the time and you wish to complain, you must send us full written details within 28 days of your return. Failure to take either or both of these steps will prejudice our ability to resolve your problem and/or investigate it fully. In consequence, any right to compensation you may have will be extinguished or, at the very least, substantially reduced.
16. Law and jurisdiction
This contract and all matters arising out of it are governed by English Law. We both agree that any dispute, claim or other matter which arises out of or in connection with this contract or your holiday will be dealt with by the Courts of England and Wales only. You may however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you live there and wish to do so.
17. Privacy

For the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation we are a Data Controller. In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements can be properly preformed we need to collect certain personal details from you. These will include, where applicable, the names and addresses of party members, their passport and insurance details, credit and debit card or other payment details (with your specific consent), special requirements such as those relating to any disability or medical condition which may affect the chose holiday arrangements and any dietary restrictions which may disclose your religious beliefs. We must pass on your personal details to the companies and organisations who need to know them so your holiday can be provided (for example airlines, hotels, credit /debit card company or bank).The information may also be provided to public authorities such as customs/immigration if required by them, or otherwise required by law. If you fail to provide us with this information, we may not be able to plan or confirm your booking.
You are entitled to ask us what details of yours are being held or processed, for what purpose and to whom it may be or have been disclosed::to delete, rectify or block the information we hold about you:to complete and restrict its use, and to pass it to another organisation. You have the right to object to the processing of your data in some circumstances and where we have asked for consent to process your data in ways additional to those listed above (for example, for marketing purposes) you may withdraw your consent
