For holders of British or EU citizen passports, no visas are required for visiting any of the European countries featured in our brochure. Citizens of other countries should consult their embassies or consulates for applicable passport and visa requirements.

For British Citizens, adults require a ten year British passport for all the countries we operate to and children a five year British passport. A British passport presently takes approximately 3 to 6 weeks to obtain. If you are 16 or over and haven’t yet got a passport, you should apply for one at least 6 weeks before your holiday. The UK Passport Service has to confirm your identity before issuing your first passport and will ask you to attend an interview in order to do this. Full details are available by either visiting their website www.gov.uk/browse/abroad/passports or telephoning the passport office on 0300 222 0000.

If you are not a British citizen or hold 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.

Please also check the validity of your passport, as some countries require passports to be valid for a certain length of time, which may be up to 6 months, after the end of your holiday arrangements. If you are unsure, please contact the appropriate embassy or consulate of the country you are travelling to. It is the party leader’s responsibility to ensure that all members of the party are in possession of all travel and other documents necessary for your holiday. We cannot be held responsible if guests are prevented from travelling or re-entering the UK due to the lack of valid passports or visas.

Ahead of the current planned deadline date for the UK withdrawal from European Union on 29 March, the government have issued the following advice in the event of leaving the EU without a deal:

After 29 March 2019:

1. To travel to Europe, you must have 6 months validity on your passport based on the return date of travel. This applies to adult and child passports.
2. If you renew a passport before it expires, any extra months that you did not use will no longer be carried over. 

Further information can be found at www.gov.uk, or, to check the validity of a passport for European travel, please check here.

The Foreign Office publishes regularly updated travel information on its website www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice which you are recommended to consult before booking and in good time before departure.

Our contracted flights

As our travel arrangements for are made many months in advance, the flight details shown here, on the accommodation pages and on our website are provisional flight arrangements and approximate flying and transfer times. All flight timings for sun holidays and ski holidays are provisional and may change up to the point of departure.

Your flight numbers and timings will be confirmed when e- tickets are issued approximately 7 – 10 days before departure. The airline or likely airline which will operate your flight will be advised at the time of booking. Where we can only advise you of the likely airline at the time of booking, we will confirm this as soon as we are in a position to do so. Bookings are not accepted on the basis that they are conditional on particular flight timings or carriers and a change of flight timing or airline does not entitle you to change or cancel your holiday unless otherwise stated in our Booking Conditions.

On busy dates, it may be necessary to buy in extra seats which may be with different airlines and operate at different times to those shown in our brochure or on our website. Supplements may be payable for these flights. As transfers for these extra flights will often be operated in conjunction with our usual flights, there may be a short additional waiting time at the airport

E-tickets will be sent to you approximately 7 – 10 days before the start of your holiday. We must have an up to date email address for your booking. Please check your documents carefully as soon as you receive them as flight details can sometimes change from those published in the brochure, on the website or detailed on your confirmation invoice.

For our charter flights, our own Mark Warner representatives will be on hand at your departure airports to assist during check-in. When you arrive at your destination airport, our overseas representatives will be waiting to welcome you after Customs and escort you to your transfer coach.
