Holidays are a time to relax and enjoy yourself but with
increasing economic uncertainty it is imperative that
holidaymakers understand the importance of booking a
holiday, flight or villa with a bonded company.
By law if you book a package holiday the
company must provide full financial protection but
tailor making your own holiday can leave you out of
pocket if you do not choose wisely.
Most respectable companies will offer financial
security by being partners with a bonding association ensuring
your financial security should the travel company go
out of business, these include “Bond Plus”
ABTOT, TTA,
AITO,
PSA, FTO,
IAICL and ATOL to name but a few.
Be aware that some companies fraudulently use
logos from the above associations so it is wise to
check them out!
When considering your flight options, it is advisable
to pay by creditcard, providing
the transaction bears the name of the company you are
booking with, ie the airline, your creditcard company
should refund any losses.
Many people are put off by the charges most
companies make to pay by creditcard but it should be
remembered that this is your financial protection and
well worth the premium!
Make sure you book your holiday with total peace of
mind – Book Bonded!
