Top Travel Tips for Vacations & Holidays
Did you know that booking your holiday independently, without
using a travel agent, means that your money is at risk? There is
no legal requirement for airlines (especially the no-frills,
low-cost variety) and hotels to supply you with security in the
event of insolvency. However, book your holiday through an ATOL
travel agent, such as the My Vacations Group of Travel Companies
(www.myvacations.co.uk) and your money and peace of mind are
secure. Reliable travel agents such as My Vacations have paid
out vast amounts of insurance to their regulatory body, the
Civil Aviation Authority, in order to be permitted to sell
package and other holidays. In short, if it doesn't have an
ATOL, don't book it at all!
Contrary to popular opinion, you don't always get the cheapest
flights by waiting until the last minute for possible
cancellations. In fact, more often than not, the air fare
increases as seat availability decreases. Book well in advance
as many airlines offer a limited number of significantly reduced
fares. At present, My Vacations are taking bookings up to 31st
March 2007. Also, always try and be flexible with your departure
point as regional airports usually offer much cheaper flights as
well as less queues and shorter check-in times.
Frequent travellers know that booking their flights and
accommodation at
the same time through a travel agent saves
them a lot of money as booking a flight independently and then
sourcing a hotel room separately means you often end up paying
'rack' rates (published full-priced flight/room rates) instead
of the heavily discounted rates offered by travel agents. My
Vacations have negotiated very low rates at many top branded
hotel chains and airlines around the world due to their bulk
buying power and these benefits are, in turn, offered to the
customer. Remember, these discounted rates are only available
when booking your holiday through a travel agent.
Book your flights, city or beach breaks through www.myvacations.co.uk and
receive an online booking discount of £5.00 per person!
Also, watch out for regularly discounted holiday offers, free
night offers at top hotels around the world and special '2 for
1' Companion fares in Business & First Class with reputable
airlines such as Qatar
Airways (www.myqatar.co.uk) & Etihad
Airways.
