Terms and Conditions

General Booking Terms and Conditions

Please read the following booking conditions carefully as they set out the terms and conditions of the contract between you and Thomas Cook Scheduled Tour Operations Limited (“we”, “us” and
“our”). Your contract will be governed by English law and any disputes will be dealt with in the courts of England and Wales. If you live in Northern Ireland or Scotland, the courts of Northern Ireland or
Scotland (as appropriate) can deal with any disputes.
Our obligations to you will vary depending upon whether or not what you book with us is a package holiday (“Package”) as defined by the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours
Regulations 1992. Section A below details the booking conditions which apply particularly to such a booking. Where you book only a ‘Flight’ or a ‘Hotel’ the terms which particularly apply to such a
booking are detailed in Section B under the heading “Single Components”. There are certain terms which apply to any type of booking and these are detailed in Section C.

A. Package Holiday
The information in our brochure and on our website, along with the terms set out below and the terms set out in section C, apply when you book a Package.

A1. Your Contract/Financial Protection
The financial bonding requirements of the Travel Association (ABTA) and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) have been observed by us in relation to the provision of all our Packages. Our CAA ATOL
number is 0606 [and our ABTA membership number V2185].
These arrangements ensure that payments made by you for your Package would be refunded and/or you would be repatriated in the unlikely event of our insolvency.

A2. Price Changes
We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your Package, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You will be charged for
the amount over and above that, plus an administration charge of £1.00 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means that you have to pay an increase of more than
10% of the price of your Package, you will have the option of accepting a change to another Package if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more
but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment charges. You must cancel within 14 days
from the issue date printed on your final invoice.
We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. Should the price of your Package go down due to the changes
mentioned above, by more than 2% of your Package cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that Packages are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent
changes have no impact on the price of your Package due to contractual and other protection in place.

A3. Changes Made By Us Before Travel
From time to time we may have to change details of the package you have booked. If any change will have a significant effect on your package, we will tell you about it before you travel, if there is
time. Changes we will tell you about include:
- Change of your UK departure airport (although a change between London airports including Gatwick, Heathrow, Stansted, Luton will not usually be considered significant).
- Significant change of your destination
- A change of more than 12 hours to the time you leave the UK or your destination
- If we downgrade your accommodation by one full Tour Operator rating
If you do not want to accept a significant change, which we tell you about before you depart, we will, if we are able to do so, offer you an alternative package of equivalent or closely similar standard
and price at no extra cost, or a less expensive package, in which case we will refund the difference in price. If you do not wish to take the alternative we offer you, you can choose a different package
offered for sale by us and pay, or receive a refund of, any price difference. Or, if you prefer, you can cancel your Package and receive a full refund of any money you have paid to us, except for any
amendment charges. We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy.
Unless the change is as a result of circumstances listed in the paragraph below headed ’Circumstances Beyond our Control’, we will pay you compensation. If you have not accepted the change but
have accepted an alternative holiday, the compensation we will pay you will be nominal and will be to compensate you for the inconvenience of having to make alternative arrangements but otherwise
we will have no liability to pay you compensation. If you have accepted the change, again, the compensation will be nominal unless, upon your return, you can justify to us that you suffered an actual
loss as a result of the change we made to your holiday. If you have not accepted the change and have accepted a refund of your holiday cost, the compensation will be a nominal sum designed to
compensate you for your inconvenience of arranging for the refund and making any alternative arrangements you subsequently make but otherwise we will have no liability to pay you compensation.

A4. Minor Changes By Us Before Travel
Any change which we do not consider significant, is a minor change. We will endeavour to tell you about a minor change before you travel but we are not obliged to do so and we will not pay
compensation. The flights we offer are operated by a range of scheduled or charter airlines, using wide or narrow body jet aircraft. It may not be possible at the time of booking to specify the airline or
type of aircraft. Please note that two airlines may share the same services, therefore a flight may not be operated by the airline whose designated code is shown on your itinerary and ticket. We are
required to inform you of the identity of the airline operating your flight. Any changes to the operating airline will be notified to you in all cases at check in or at the boarding gate. We reserve the right to
change airlines or aircraft types at any time and changes of this type will not constitute a significant change.

A5. Cancellation By Us
We can cancel your Package and any other Package we operate. On rare occasions, we may need to cancel your Package if there is insufficient demand for your particular Package. If we have to
cancel a Package for any particular reason, we will tell you as soon as reasonably possible. In these circumstances, we will, if we are able to do so, offer you an alternative Package of equivalent or
closely similar standard and price at no extra cost, or a less expensive Package, in which case we will refund the difference in price. If you do not wish to take the alternative we offer you, you can
choose another offered for sale by us and pay, or receive a full refund of, any price difference.
Or, if you prefer, you can receive a full refund of any money you have paid to us, except for any amendment charges. We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can
show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy. However, we will not cancel your Package within 10 weeks of departure except if we are forced to do so because of unusual circumstances
we could not have foreseen, where we could not avoid the results of those circumstances even after taking all reasonable care. (See 'Circumstances Beyond Our Control' below) No compensation will
be payable in these circumstances, whenever they happen, and we will only have to offer you the above choices. We can also cancel if you fail to make payment for your booking on time.

A6. Circumstances Beyond Our Control
Except where we say differently elsewhere in these conditions, we will not pay any compensation, reimburse expenses, or cover losses for any amount or otherwise accept responsibility if we have to
change your Package after departure, or we, or our suppliers, cannot supply your Package, as we, or they, had agreed, or you suffer any loss or damage of any description, as a result of
circumstances beyond our control. When we refer to circumstances beyond our control, we mean any event that we, or the supplier in question, could not foresee or avoid, even after taking all
reasonable care. Such circumstances will usually include, but are not limited to, war, terrorist activity, civil unrest, industrial dispute, bad weather (actual or threatened) and significant building work
ongoing outside of your accommodation, which is not known to us in advance of your departure date and building work from a third party (such as resort development).

A7. Changes Made After Travel
If, after your departure, a significant part of your pre-booked Package arrangements cannot be provided, you will be offered a suitable alternative if possible. If appropriate, we will also pay you
compensation in accordance with the table in the section entitled ‘Changes Made By Us Before Travel’ unless the reason for the change is due to circumstances beyond our control (see section
entitled ‘Circumstances Beyond Our Control’). If it is not possible to offer you a suitable alternative or, for good reasons, you do not accept the alternative arrangements, you will have the right to cancel
your booking. In this event, you will have the right to be returned by the same means of transport to your original departure point at no extra cost provided that transport is available. This does not
impose an obligation on us to make specific transport arrangements for you if none are available.

A8. Flight Delays
Delays sometimes occur. We work closely with the airlines and overseas offices to make sure any delay is as short as possible. When a delay occurs we will try to make sure refreshments or meals
are provided when appropriate.
We will not do this ourselves as such arrangements will normally be the responsibility of the airline. If you have taken out our recommended travel insurance or a comparable policy you should have
cover against delays.

A9. Our Liability to You
(i) Our obligations, and those of our suppliers providing any service or facility involved in any of your Holiday, are to take reasonable skill and care to arrange for the provision of such services and facilities and, where we or our supplier is actually providing the service or facility, to provide them with reasonable skill and care. Compliance with any applicable regulatory requirements (such as, for example, those of the Civil Aviation Authority) will be proper performance of our, and our suppliers', obligations. Conversely, however, reasonable skill and care does not necessarily mean compliance with each and every local law and regulation particularly where these impose absolute obligations. You must show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make any claim.

(ii) For claims which do not involve death or personal injury, we accept liability, subject to paragraph (i) above and (iv) below, should any part of your Package not be as described in this Guide or
elsewhere by us before you leave the U.K. If we have liability, we will, subject to clause C9 and clause C12 below, pay you reasonable compensation. However, the maximum we will pay you in any
circumstances is twice the price of the Package. This maximum will only be payable when every aspect of your Package has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit from your Package.
Any sums received by you from suppliers, will be deducted from any sum paid to you as compensation by us.
(iii) For claims which involve death or personal injury as a result of an activity forming part of your Package (excluding Resort Booked Excursions - see section C5 ‘Excursions’), we have liability subject
to paragraph (i) above and (iv) below. If we accept liability, we will, subject to paragraphs (v) and (vi) and clause C9 below, pay you reasonable compensation.
(iv) We accept liability in accordance with paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above and subject to paragraphs (v) and (vi) and clause C9 below except where the cause of the failure in your Package or any
death or personal injury you may suffer is not due to any fault on our part or that of our servants, agents or suppliers, and is either attributable to you, or attributable to someone unconnected with the
Package and is unforeseeable or unavoidable, or due to unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had
been exercised, or an event which neither we, nor our servants, agents or suppliers could have foreseen or forestalled.
(v) You are obliged to assist us in recovering from any third party any sum which may compensate us for any sums we pay you. In particular, you are obliged to assign to us any rights that you may
have against any other person whose acts or omissions have caused or contributed to our legal liability to pay you compensation. You must also provide us with all assistance we may reasonably
require. Finally, you must follow the procedures for the notification of complaints set out in the clause below entitled “Complaints”. (vi) Should you become ill while on your Package, you must, in
addition to reporting your illness to your accommodation provider, consult a local doctor and also consult your GP upon your return to the UK. Should you then wish to make a claim against us as a
result of that illness, you must provide us with details of both the local doctor whom you saw and your GP, together with written authority for us to obtain a medical report from both those doctors.
(vii) If you or any member of your party suffers illness, injury or death, through misadventure, as a result of any activity which does not form part of your contracted Package arrangements, we will
provide you with all reasonable assistance. This assistance may include our making a contribution towards your initial legal costs in taking action against the person(s) responsible providing you
request this within 90 days of the incident in question. All assistance (financial or otherwise) is subject to our reasonable discretion and a maximum total cost to ourselves of £5,000 per booking form. If
you are entitled to have any costs and expenses arising from such an incident met by or from any insurance policy or if you obtain a costs order against anyone in relation to the incident, you must
repay to us the costs and expenses we spend in assisting you.
(viii) Other than as set out above, and as is detailed elsewhere in these booking conditions, we shall have no legal liability whatsoever to you for any loss, damage, personal injury or death which you
suffer arising directly or indirectly from any aspect of your Package.

A10. Airline Collapse
In the unlikely event that the airline with which you are travelling ceases to trade whilst you are abroad, you must contact us at the earliest opportunity to allow us to seek to find you an alternative
return flight. We shall not be liable for any costs you incur in making your own return flight arrangements if you have not given us the opportunity to arrange an alternative flight home for you.

B. Single Components
The terms set out below, together with the terms set out in section C, apply when you book individual travel components such as only a ‘Flight’ or only a ‘Hotel’. They apply whether you book one
component or more than one component. Booking more than one component does not create a Package.

B1. Price Changes
Price increases may occur any time prior to departure, you will be liable to pay any such increases in full. If, before you book, we know of circumstances that may cause an increase in the price of your
booking after you have paid, we will endeavour to provide details to you.

B2. Transfer of Bookings
In the case of a scheduled flight only booking, transfer to another person will involve cancelling the original booking, thereby incurring any relevant cancellation charges and then making a new
booking, which will be subject to availability and any additional price increase. Transfer of any other type of booking is subject to the supplier’s own terms and conditions and the applicable amendment
or cancellation charges as stated in section C.

B3. Our Liability to You
Our responsibility is to make arrangements for the provision by the relevant suppliers (including air carrier of air transport, accommodation owner/supplier, car hire provider) of the components you
book, but we do not have any responsibility for the operation of the component itself.
We have no liability to you for any dissatisfaction, loss of enjoyment, loss, injury or damage which results from your use of the single component unless we have negligently failed to select a normally
competent provider of the relevant component. Further, we have no liability to you in any event for any consequential loss which you may suffer in relation to any arrangements which you book to
coincide with the single component you have booked with us.
Please note, in the unlikely event of our collapse/insolvency, any money you have paid is not protected by a scheme of financial protection. If this is important to you, we recommend you book a
Package with us or obtain suitable travel insurance.

C. All Bookings
Before you book please visit our website or discuss your choice of destination, accommodation and transport with our reservations staff or your travel agent, to make sure it will be suitable for you and
the people you will be traveling with. Some travel and accommodation arrangements are only available on a request basis - where this is the case you will be advised at the time you make your enquiry
and details of the arrangements on request will be shown on any documentation we issue. Any arrangements that we advise you are on request are not confirmed or guaranteed and are subject to
change until we receive confirmation from our supplier.

C1. Your Holiday Booking
The person who signs the booking form or completes the booking online or by telephone is the 'lead name'. He or she must be over 18 years of age and is responsible for payment of the total booking
price, including any insurance premiums and subsequent cancellation or amendment charges that may be payable. He or she also agrees to provide accurate and full information to the remainder of
the traveling party in relation to the booking, including any changes thereto and confirms that all the other members of the party, including any that may be added at a later date, agree to be bound by
these conditions, and all other information in the relevant brochure and on our websites (as applicable).
If you are making the booking on behalf of a minor, under the age of 18, who is not traveling with a person 18 or over, we will only allow the minor to travel on the following terms: The parent/legal
guardian must be present when the booking is made; the booking is subject to the minor satisfying our suppliers conditions of travel (minimum age restrictions do apply and vary by airline); The
parent/guardian will be required, as deemed appropriate by us, to; (a) sign a booking form, (b) complete a letter of authorisation/consent for the minor to travel, (c) provide a photocopy of the photo
page in the parent/guardian and minors passport, (d) pay any applicable charges/costs applied by the airline. For all bookings as described in Section A and/or Section B above, a contract will exist
between you and us when we issue a confirmation invoice/receipt/e-mail.

C2. Payment terms
If your booking is made more than 10 weeks before the intended departure date, you must pay either: -
(i) the full fare (depending on the carrier's conditions for the travel arrangements in question), or
(ii) a deposit as required by us and/or the supplier of the services for the arrangements in question, the amount of which will be advised at the time of booking. You will be advised at the time of
booking what payment is required for your particular arrangements. The balance of the cost of your travel arrangements must be paid within 10 weeks before the departure date. If your booking is
made within 10 weeks of your intended departure date, the total cost of your travel arrangements must be paid at the time of booking.
PLEASE NOTE FAILURE TO PAY ON TIME WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION.
If you are purchasing a travel insurance policy through us, the premium for this will also be payable at time of booking.

C3. Special requests
If you have a special request for anything that is not automatically part of the travel arrangements you book through us, please advise us when you book and we will pass this information on to the
companies we work with. Our note of your request on your invoice/receipt confirms we have received it and does not guarantee that we, or the relevant supplier, can meet your request. Where
possible they will try to help you, but we cannot guarantee any request unless it is noted on your invoice/receipt and we also confirm the request separately in writing. We must emphasise that verbal
confirmations of special requests cannot be taken as a guarantee that they will be met e.g. special meal types on flights.

C4. Insurance
You must take out adequate travel insurance suitable for your needs before you travel. We cannot be responsible for any costs you incur as a result of you failing to do so. For your own peace of mind
the insurance should cover you if you have to cancel your arrangements, or for any emergencies that arise while you are away. We recommend the insurance we offer as it provides cover, which
meets most people's needs. Please check your policy when you receive it and take it with you on your travels.

C5. Excursions
Excursions include, but are not restricted to, any sightseeing trips, gigs, events or other tours attended in resort for which additional payment is required. Excursions can either be booked and/or paid
for in resort ("Resort Booked
Excursions") or pre-booked and paid for when you book your Holiday ("Pre-booked Excursions"). All excursions are supplied by third party suppliers and are subject to the clause C8. We accept,
subject to clauses A9 and C8 entitled "Suppliers' Conditions" and "Our Liability to You" below, responsibility for Pre-booked Excursions. However, Resort Booked Excursions do not form part of your
Package and are not governed by the Package Travel, Package Holiday and Package Tours Regulations 1992. We do not have any responsibility or liability whatsoever for anything which may go
wrong on a Resort Booked Excursion. We, our servants, employees or agents are acting, depending upon the actual Resort Booked Excursion, either as agents for the relevant Resort Booked
Excursion supplier or as agent for you. In any event the contract for any Resort Booked Excursion is between you and the Resort Booked Excursion provider. It is your responsibility to note carefully
any conditions of contract contained in any Resort Booked Excursion, literature, ticket or receipt you are given. For Resort Booked Excursions you may be subject to the laws of the country in which
you take your excursion and may be required to bring any disputes or claims before the Courts of that country also.

C6. Changes you make before travel
If you want to change the arrangements you have booked in any way, we will try to help you, although we cannot guarantee that we will always be able to do this as changes are subject to availability
at the time and to the transport providers terms and conditions. Please note that typically changes to scheduled flight tickets, ferry and Eurostar tickets are very restrictive. Where we can make a
change, we will charge for any additional services, facilities, or other items changed, at the price which applies on the day the change is made. In addition, we will also apply charges for each person
on the booking and for each item you want to change as shown in the table below. Any booking discount you may have received at the time the original booking was made, may be altered or reduced
whenever changes are made. If you have paid supplements for accommodation and the number of people in your accommodation changes, you may have to pay extra and may lose any free or
reduced infant and child places or any free group places. And remember any change to your departure date, airport, transport, destination, accommodation, or length of holiday has to apply to all
members of your booking.
Note: the transport provider may impose additional charges of up to 100% of the ticket cost, such as when tickets have been issued; any such charges will be in addition to the
amendment fees listed above - see the Exception in the section "Cancellation By You" below.
The costs shown are per change per person
Notice given more than 70 days
Transport (e.g. Air/Sea/Road/Rail) - £50 a change
Date of Travel (see Note 1) – Cancellation charges - see ‘Cancellation By You’
Destination Airport - £50 a change
Name Change (see Note 2) - £50 per name change
Accommodation - £50 a change
Optional Extras (see Note 3) - The greater of £50 or Loss of Deposit
Notice given 70 days or less
Transport (e.g. Air/Sea/Road/Rail) – Cancellation charges - see ‘Cancellation By You’
Date of Travel (see Note 1) - Cancellation charges - see 'Cancellation By You'
Destination Airport - Cancellation charges - see 'Cancellation By You'
Name Change (see Note 2) - £50 per name change
Accommodation - £50 a change
Optional Extras (see Note 3) - Cancellation charges - see 'Cancellation By You'
Note 1: In all cases a change to the outbound travel date, once confirmed, is regarded as a cancellation and rebooking, not an alteration to the booking
Note 2: You are not permitted to change all the names on any booking and at least one of the passengers (over 18) on the original booking must remain, unless you are prevented from travelling for
reasons beyond your control and not simply from a change of mind. Some suppliers, particularly airlines, may consider a name or other change to an existing booking, as a cancellation and
rebooking, with up to 100% cancellation charges. If the services booked are dependent on a minimum number of people using the service, we will have to recalculate the total cost if the number of
passengers travelling has altered. The cost may therefore increase but as this is not a cancellation charge, it may not be covered by your insurance.
Note 3: When we refer to 'Optional Extras', we mean anything you choose to add to your booking that is additional to the inclusive transport and accommodation arrangements you book. For example,
car hire, weddings or park tickets. If you cancel any Optional Extras for which there is a cost, we will apply the charges above. If you cancel any Travel insurance you booked through us your premium
will not be refunded, as cover under the policy will already have begun.

C7. Cancellation By You
The lead name on the booking must give notice to cancel in writing either to their travel agent or to the correspondence address as stated on the invoice and the charges shown below apply from the
date we receive the notice at our offices or the travel agent activates the cancellation. In order to cover our expected losses from the cancellation of the booking there is a set scale of charges which
must be paid by you if you or anyone traveling with you cancels. Note: These cancellation charges apply to all bookings, except in circumstances where a booking includes items or services where our
suppliers own cancellation charges exceed those shown above, as explained in the ‘Exception’ described below. In these circumstances any additional cancellation charges will be advised at the time
of booking. Please ensure you are certain of the fees applicable to your booking by asking us before proceeding to book your arrangements
Also note the ‘Exception’ described below which may apply in addition to the scale of charges.
Time we receive your notice to cancel before departure Cancellation charge
(Package Holidays)
Cancellation charge
(Accommodation Only)
More than 70 days Loss of deposit Loss of deposit
70-57 days 30% cost of holiday (or loss of deposit if greater). 30% of accommodation cost (or loss of deposit if greater).
56-29 days 50% cost of holiday 60% of accommodation cost (or loss of deposit if greater).
28-15 days 70% cost of holiday 80% of accommodation cost (or loss of deposit if greater).
14-8 days 100% cost of holiday 80% of accommodation cost (or loss of deposit if greater).
7-0 days 100% cost of holiday 100% cost of holiday
Also note the ‘Exception’ described below which may apply in addition to the scale of charges.  Other Travel Arrangements:- (apart from accommodation only) If you need to cancel you must contact us. Cancellation charges vary depending on the services booked and will be higher the later you
cancel and will be clearly stated at the time of booking. In all cases a minimum cancellation fee of £50 will apply regardless of the value of the service cancelled.
If any member of the booking cancels and you cannot fill that person's place, you may have to pay additional supplements for your accommodation. For example, you may have to pay single or underoccupancy supplements. If you do cancel, you must still pay any insurance premiums and amendment charges, which arose before the cancellation, and any deposits paid for any pre-booked items or services.
‘Exception’: Cancellation of certain transport arrangements, typically Scheduled airline, Ferry and Eurostar tickets can result in up to 100% cancellation charges regardless of the notice period given
to us. We reserve the right to pass on these charges where they exceed our charges shown in the table above. Similarly, name changes (including initial changes), destination and date changes can
be treated by such suppliers as a cancellation and rebooking, regardless of the period of notice given to us. If the supplier treats the change as a cancellation and rebooking we will pass on to you the
cost imposed by the supplier, which could be up to 100% of the transport element of your booking and you must also pay the charge listed in the section "Changes You Make Before You Travel"
above. Also note that the transport provider may refuse to issue replacement tickets for lost or stolen tickets and new tickets may have to be purchased by you. The cost of the new ticket may be
greater than the cost of the original ticket.

C8. Suppliers’ conditions
Our third party suppliers have their own booking conditions and conditions of carriage, and you will be bound by these, so far as the relevant supplier is concerned. Our suppliers’ conditions will also
apply to your contract with us, and in the event of any conflict between the suppliers’ conditions and our conditions, the suppliers’ conditions will prevail, save to the extent that any term in the suppliers’
conditions is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, in which event our conditions will prevail. Some of our Suppliers’ conditions may limit or exclude liability on the part of the relevant supplier, and, by
virtue of their application to your contract with us, may also limit or exclude our liability to you, and they are often subject to international conventions. Where relevant, copies of such conditions may be
available for inspection at the office of the relevant supplier.

C9. International Conventions
If any international convention applies to or governs any of the services or facilities arranged or provided by us, or provided by any of our suppliers, and you make a claim against us of any nature
arising out of death, injury, loss or damage suffered during or as a result of the provision of those services or facilities, our liability to pay you compensation and/or the amount (if any) of compensation
payable to you by us will be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to that provided for by the international convention concerned (in each case including in respect of the conditions of
liability, the time for bringing any claim and the type and amount of any damages that can be awarded). International Conventions which may apply include: in respect of international air travel, the
Warsaw Convention 1929 (including as amended by the Hague Protocol of 1955 and by any of the additional Montreal Protocol of 1975 or the Montreal Convention 1999); in respect of rail travel, the
COTIF Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail 1980 (as amended); in respect of carriage by sea, the Athens Convention 1974; in respect of carriage by road, the Geneva Convention
1973; and, in respect of hotels, the Paris Convention 1962. You can get copies of the relevant conventions if you ask us. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that we are to be regarded as having
all benefit of any limitations of compensation contained in any of these conventions or any other international conventions applicable to your travel arrangements.

C10. Baggage
The amount of compensation we will pay for any loss or damage to luggage is limited in accordance with the conventions listed in the above section. For claims for missing or damaged baggage you
must follow the rules on the back or your ticket or contained within the carrier’s conditions of carriage. Please note time limits apply within which to notify us or the carrier and make a claim. We will not
accept liability for high-value items which you should insure for the appropriate amount.

C11. Flight and Other Travel Timings
Flight timings are provided by airlines and are subject to Air Traffic Control restrictions. All means of transportation are subject to weather conditions and the need for constant maintenance and the
ability of passengers to check in on time. There is no guarantee that transport will depart at the times stated on any itinerary or tickets which you receive. All timings are estimates only, and we do not
have any liability to you for any delay, which may arise, or for any schedule alterations.

C12. Denied Boarding
Where a flight ticket is downgraded or a flight cancelled, delayed, or boarding is denied by any carrier in circumstances which would entitle you to compensation under the Denied Boarding
Regulations 2004, then you are obliged to claim the appropriate sums pursuant to those Regulations from the carrier. Any sums received by you in this respect constitute the full amount of your
entitlement to compensation for all matters flowing from the carrier’s actions and which fall within the scope of the Denied Boarding Regulations. If, for any reason, you do not claim against the carrier
and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you , make a complete assignment to us of the rights you have against the carrier in relation to
the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment.

C13. Complaints
We aim to provide the best holiday possible. However, if you are not satisfied please complain as soon as possible to the relevant person (for example, the accommodation management or transport
supplier). If they cannot help, you must tell your holiday Representative or our Local Agent and we will do everything reasonably possible to sort the problem out. If you are still not satisfied, ask your
holiday Representative or our Local Agent for a Customer Relations Report Form. If you do not have the services of a Representative or our Local Agent, or they are not available, you must contact
our UK Duty Office (on the number shown on your travel documentation) straight away. When you get back home, send a letter (and where possible, enclose your completed Customer Relations
Report Form), to our offices in the UK, within 28 days of returning home. If you have special needs that prevent you from writing to us then, where possible, we will accept details of your complaint over
the telephone. For complaints arising from Scheduled airlines, we will act as a liaison between you and the airline, to try to assist in resolving the problem. If we cannot help and you wish to take
matters further, you must contact the airline directly.
The address to send your completed form and covering letter to is:
Customer Relations Department, Thomas Cook, 2/4 Godwin Street, Bradford, BD1 2ST
Register your complaint online: www.thomascook.com/customer-relations
We would point out that failure to follow the above procedures during your holiday, and/or failure to complain within 28 days of your return, may reduce or extinguish any rights you have to claim
compensation from us, or from any relevant supplier. Any such rights will be reduced or extinguished if, had you followed the above procedures during your holiday, you or we could have taken steps
to reduce any loss or damage suffered or entirely prevented it from being suffered.
It is difficult and sometimes impossible to properly investigate a complaint if we are not told about it reasonably quickly once the holiday is over. Your right to claim compensation may also be reduced
or extinguished, should any delay in your complaint being notified during or after your holiday, prevent us from carrying out a proper investigation.
We aim to resolve all complaints ourselves, but if this is not possible your complaint can be considered under a scheme devised by ABTA and administered by CEDR Solve. We will give you details of this scheme if you ask. The scheme does not apply to claims over £25,000 in total or more than £5,000 a person, or to claims mainly about illness or injury. To take advantage of the scheme you must contact the CEDR Solve within 18 months of returning from your Holiday.

C14. Travel Documents And Health Advice
It is your responsibility to have valid travel documents. If we or your carrier are fined as a result of you holding incorrect documents, you will have to pay us the full amount. For up to date UK
Government health & travel advice please visit www.fco.gov.uk, www.hpa.org.uk and www.nathnac.org and contact your GP. See our Holiday Information pages and website for further information.

C15. Information Accuracy
We publish brochure and website information many months in advance and, as far as we know, all information is correct at the time of publication. However, things may still change after publication
and we check regularly to see if we need to update or correct any information or prices. If there are any significant information changes or we find any mistakes, we will put details on our computer
reservation system or website so you will receive the latest information when you make your booking.
Descriptions of accommodation, facilities and services we provide are based on information obtained from our suppliers. Sometimes the facilities described will be withdrawn for reasons such as
maintenance, bad weather or lack of demand from guests. Where our suppliers advise us about significant changes to descriptions or about the withdrawal of any significant facility, we will tell you as
soon as possible. Some activities or facilities, water-sports for example, may not be available all year round. There may be a charge for some facilities, for example, TVs, safety deposit boxes, sunloungers,
parasols, tennis courts, pool tables and air-conditioning. In some places during high season (and even at other times) there is a possibility you will be disturbed by noise from less considerate
groups, so please bear this in mind when choosing your destination and accommodation. Any transfer times we quote for travel between airport and resort are approximate and, depending on
circumstances, the journey time to your own chosen property may be longer.

C16. Data Protection
By making a booking with us, you agree we may use and disclose the information you provide for the following purposes: to enable us to process your booking (which will include passing your
information to third party suppliers, such as hoteliers and airlines, and may involve sending your information to countries that do not have an equal level of privacy legislation to that in the UK); for
market research and analysis purposes; for improving customer service; for the detection and prevention of fraud or other crime (which may include providing your information to organisations such as Banks and credit card companies); for compliance with legal requirements (which will include passing your information to public authorities such as customs and immigration) and for marketing contact
by means of post or telephone to provide you with offers, products and services from companies within the Thomas Cook group and carefully selected third parties. If you purchase travel insurance
from us, we will need to pass your personal data (including sensitive personal data and personal/sensitive data relating to other members of your travelling party) to the insurance company.
Telephone calls to/from ourselves may be recorded for training and quality purposes and for preventing/detecting crime. If you have booked with us via our web site, or if you have chosen for us to
contact you by e-mail, we will communicate with you using the e-mail address you have provided to supply you with your travel documentation. We are entitled to assume that the e-mail address you
have provided is correct and that you understand and accept the risks associated with using this form of communication. Please note that you may still need to contact us by post or via our call centre
as required by our booking conditions. If you wish to make a data subject access request for a copy of any personal data we hold on you, please write to: The Company Secretary, Thomas Cook
Group UK Ltd, UK Legal Department, Unit 17 Coningsby Road, Peterborough, PE3 8SB. If you wish to opt out of receiving marketing communications from us, please advise one of our sales
consultants or make the appropriate opt out choices on the website when you book.

C17. Your Responsibility
We want all our customers to have an enjoyable, carefree Holiday. But you must remember that you are responsible for your actions and the effect they may have on others. If we, or another person in
authority, believe:
- your actions could upset, annoy or disturb other customers, our suppliers or our own staff, or put them in any risk or danger, or damage property; or
- - you are unfit to travel; we may end your Holiday and terminate your contract. You and your traveling party will be prevented from using your booked accommodation, transport, and any
other Travel Arrangements forming part of your booking and we will not be liable for any refund, compensation or any other costs you have to pay. Alternatively at our discretion, you may be
permitted to continue with your Holiday but may have additional terms of carriage imposed upon you. See 'In-Flight Safety in the All You Need To Know/Holiday Information sections of the
relevant brochure and on our websites for further details.
In addition to the above and the effect your actions may have on others, you must particularly also bear in mind that you are responsible for your safety, and that you are responsible for the condition of
the property you occupy. We are not responsible for any accidents which occur in or around swimming pools due to your inappropriate, or irresponsible behaviour, or for any accidents which occur
anywhere on properties because of glass, china or the like which you have broken and/or have left in a way in which injury can result.
We expect that you will enjoy your holiday with us. We appreciate that you may well drink alcohol as part of your enjoyment. You must, however, do so responsibly and we will have no liability to you
for any injury, loss or damage you suffer as a result of your judgment being impaired wholly or partly by alcohol.
We will hold you and the members of your traveling party jointly and individually liable for any damage to the accommodation, furniture, apparatus or other materials located within the accommodation,
together with any legal costs we incur in pursuing a claim. It is your duty to report any breakages, defects or damage to an appropriate person immediately.
If your behaviour or the behaviour of any members of your traveling party causes any transport aircraft to be diverted we and/or the carrier will hold you and those members jointly and individually liable
for all costs incurred as a result of that diversion.
We cannot accept liability for the behaviour of others in your accommodation or flight, or for any facilities/services withdrawn as a result of their action.
