Notes on Prices

accommodation; 2-3* - two or three star accommodation; 3-4* - three or
four star accommodation; FD - fly/drive package; FO - flight only package.

by individual operators as defined in their brochures, eg: Thomson indicate
them as a 'T' rating on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1'T' as the lowest and
a 5'T' as the highest.
3. Prices are for return trips, per person. Most are based on two people
sharing. Some self-catering prices are based on four or more people sharing.

we'll tell you before you confirm your booking.
7. Most prices don't include local entry and departure taxes levied by
non-EU countries such as Kenya, Sri Lanka and Turkey.
8. 'Economy' packages may not include all supplementary charges (for example
airport transfers, flight meals); the customer should contact our Reservation
staff to check whether this is the case and what charges apply..
9. Please note that for technical reasons connected with us providing
you with the widest possible range of options, we're not able to display
the names of specific hotels associated with some holiday packages. This
information and more is available by telephone from our call centre.
