Holiday 

in style 

with all the Family 

Why not whisk your whole clan away on a multi-generational holiday? 

Pack your grandparents, siblings, auntie and the teenagers! 

Holidays are ideal for spending quality time together as a 

family. We can help you do them affordably and in style 

without any of the squabbling. 

We’re especially experienced in family holidays for children 

aged 12 and above, and we know that there’s no such thing 

as a cookie cutter teenager. 

We can share years of wisdom with you on how to plan that 

perfect family holiday that meets everyone's needs - and 

ensure smiles from everyone. 

We offer varied accommodation arrangements that 

ensure everyone in your party has just the right amount of 

independence, from all-inclusive resorts with unlimited food 

buffets to large family suites with private bathrooms and 

common areas, or home-from-home villas. You can even 

enjoy your quiet time with adult-only areas! 

We also offer experiences that provide a wide range of 

activities filled with fun and downtime for all the family, 

such as cinema nights, bonfire beach parties, survival 

camps, gaming zones, watersports, and football and tennis 

academies, to fun days out at water and theme parks or 

local attractions.

Villa Holidays 

VILLAStays 

For a perfect home-from-home holiday 

Why not bundle up your friends and have a reunion in style in 2023? 

Villa accommodation is ideal if you’re a group of friends or 

large family wishing to holiday together. 

Unlike hotel rooms where extra beds are set up in common 

living areas and space can feel a bit squeezed, villas provide 

ample room, with spaces for you to come together as well as 

your own private allocated bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms. 

Many of our hotels and resorts offer villa accommodation so 

that you have all the benefits of independence, space and 

privacy but with first-rate facilities at your fingertips. There 

are two bedroom and larger villas for if you’re travelling with 

extended family, as well as villas with pools and self-catering 

facilities. You can even have your own dedicated villa 

manager and in-villa dining.

Pure Privacy 

that’s all for you 

Have you ever wanted to hide from the world? But at the same 

time receive a luxury service and pampering experiences? 

Here at Sovereign Luxury Travel, we don’t believe pure privacy is 

only for VIPs and royalty, nor do we believe you need a paparazzifree 

private island to enjoy a hideaway holiday. 

We’ve already mentioned you can stay in a private villa away from 

the world, or stay in your own private villa within the grounds of a 

larger hotel or resort, but what about more exclusive touches? 

Perhaps you’d like your own private pool or a secluded sit-out with 

spectacular views? Would you prefer to always eat your meals 

away from other guests? Maybe you’re even dreaming of a pocket 

of sand and palm trees all for yourself? We can help with all of 

these requests. 

Many of our luxury accommodation partners have a premium 

service where a personal butler is provided. They will cater to any 

holiday whims you have on a moment to moment basis, whether 

that’s setting up a private dining experience for you that night, or 

booking you in for a private tennis class, or a couple’s spa session 

that same afternoon. 

Go on, indulge, we know you want to! Call our Personal Travel 

Planners to discuss the options that work for you.

Experiences 

We help you create a holiday filled with a treasure chest of 

memories by adding in our local expertise and insider tips. 

UNIQUE DINING EXPERIENCES 

We might recommend you move your holiday dates by a day 

or two so that you can take part in a unique local festival, 

or we might suggest a restaurant just down the road from 

your resort that we know you’ll love. We believe in great 

experiences that bring the essence of a luxury holiday to life. 

Sink your toes in a carpet of velvety sands with a private 

beach dinner, or tuck into a picnic lunch on a remote island. 

Whether you’re looking to dine in an underwater restaurant or 

reserve a table in a Michelin-starred restaurant, we are able 

to create the most memorable dining experiences. 

SOAK UP THE WATERS 

FIND A LOCAL FIESTA 

We love it when our guests can embrace the local culture. 

While the large festivals are well-known, such as Venice 

Carnevale in Italy or Day of the Dead in Mexico, there are 

always plenty of smaller and authentic events taking place 

that we know our guests will love. From flower and food 

festivals to historical reenactments, we always have a few 

ideas up our sleeves for you. 

INDULGE IN WELLNESS 

We’re here to help you embrace your inner water baby, 

whether that’s a special diving excursion, island hopping on 

a private catamaran or sunbathing on the deck of a luxury 

yacht. Or it could be as simple as having your own private 

pool or a swim-up room at your resort. 

WITNESS THE WILD 

We know how to give you the best wellness holidays as we 

know where all the world’s best spas, wellness facilities and 

treatment options are! With top names from Elemis, Banyan 

Tree, Six Senses and ESPA, you don’t need to lift a finger 

in finding the perfect spa experience. From infinity pools 

and hydromassage facilities to thermal waters and Turkish 

hammam experiences, we've got your covered. 

We love our guest’s to experience the natural bounty that 

our world has to offer, and hold a little black book of 

environmentally considerate and ethical wildlife encounters, 

from bird watching and responsible whale watching in 

Tenerife to glamping in a luxury elephant camp in Thailand!

BEST OF 

Both Worlds 

Have you ever considered a pick and mix holiday? 

Struggling to decide what type of holiday you want? Perhaps 

you fancy a beach stay but your partner wants to head to the 

mountains or indulge in a city break? 

Naturally, there are tried and tested combinations, such as the 

city and beach with Dubai and the Maldives, or the beach and 

landscapes with holidays in Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, 

or even enjoying both the beach and mountains with a holiday 

to Latchi and the Troodos Mountains in Cyprus. 

There are plenty of places that you perhaps haven’t ever 

thought of combining but can work together. Why not tick a 

couple of places off your bucket list at once? For example, you 

could enjoy a two-in-one holiday to Thailand and the Maldives, 

or pair up your holiday in Malta with some time in Sicily. There’s 

so much choice! 

We don’t think you should ever have to choose, which is why we 

are here to help you create wonderful combination holidays.

Fancy 

a Speedy 

Escape 

How would you like to arrive at your holiday destination 

and feel the sunshine on your skin in under four hours? 


17 


We know how important an escape from the daily 

routine is, which is why most of our short haul holidays 

are well within reach. We offer plenty of spots, with 

flight times of just a few hours to your destination. 

If you’ve missed holidaying abroad recently, why not 

make the most of your next one? You can stay for a bit 

longer and combine two or three destinations in one. 

Now’s the time to really see more of one country. 

Take a morning flight to Majorca and you can be on a 

wine tour by the afternoon, or going designer shopping 

in Palma’s brilliant boutiques before dinner. After 

several relaxing days, you can then venture to other 

islands in the Balearic Islands! 

You might prefer to tee off in the emerald green courses 

and sunshine of the Algarve? Or what about reaching 

the secluded coves of Corfu within three and half hours, 

before hopping around other Greek islands? 

You can be at King’s Landing from Game of 

Thrones in Dubrovnik, or be casting your eyes over 

Venetian architecture and the sparkling Adriatic 

Ocean in Rovinj in under two and a half hours. 

For ease, we can ensure your tailormade holiday starts 

and ends at your nearest airport.

Spain | Introduction 

Spain 

Embrace Spain’s incredible diversity 

On the sun-kissed mainland you’ll find the aptly-named Costa 

del Sol with Marbella’s golden mile of epic palm-lined beaches 

and its lively resorts, as well as upmarket Puerto Banus. 

The Canary Islands showcase drama with lunar-like landscapes 

in Lanzarote and volcanic vistas and desert dunes in Tenerife. 

You’ll also be able to enjoy the sweeping bays of Gran Canaria 

and the tranquil white villages found in La Gomera. 

Then, there’s the pine-backed bays and fashionable harbour 

towns of the Balearic Islands, home to cosmopolitan Majorca 

with its cultural capital of Palma. Embrace vibrant Ibiza 

with its swish resorts and some of the world’s best bars, or 

find tranquillity within the quieter island of Menorca. 

Incredibly easy to reach, you can be lazing on golden sands 

within hours of leaving home. What are you waiting for? 


Bahia Del Duque Resort & Villas 

Costa Adeje, Tenerife 

Located on the shores of Costa Adeje in Tenerife, Hotel 

Bahia del Duque is a little bit of paradise. Tasteful, modern 

and eco-responsible, it’s also ideal for your luxury holiday 

in the Canary Islands. Hotel Bahia del Duque enjoys direct 

access to two gorgeous beaches, where you can either 

relax the day away or enjoy some fun in the sun with a 

variety of watersports. The island is well known for its whale 

population, so why not book a trip to try and spot these 

beauties of the sea. 

19 

Spain | Tenerife 

Bahia Del Duque Resort 


Offers available: 20% room discount 

Royal River Luxury Hotel 


Bahia Del Duque Villas 



The Royal River is a truly luxurious boutique property. The 

resort opened in July 2020, and is cocooned between the 

mountains and the ocean. The architecture is elegant yet 

contemporary and makes use of many natural products 

found on the island. 

There may be only 50 suites and villas, but there is sure to be 

one which sparks your imagination. These include the 1 and 

2-bedroom African-inspired Lagoon Villas as well as the 

River Suites. 



Red Level - Gran Melia Palacio De Isora 

Guia de Isora, Tenerife 

The Red Level at Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora exudes 

luxury from the moment you arrive, with valet parking and a 

dedicated ambassador of Spanish luxury, the Lady in Red, to 

greet you and offer unique insights into the local culture and 

history of the hotel and surrounding area. 

The colonial style reception and lobby lead out to the 

exclusive adults only pool area, set amid an oasis of tropical 

landscaped gardens, with Bali style beds and sun loungers 

shaded by big white parasols. 



Prices are in £ per person based on two adults and include accommodation, flights from London, airport lounge access, and private transfers. 


20 


Iberostar Grand El Mirador 


Perhaps one of the best adults-only luxury hotels in Tenerife, 

the Iberostar Mirador ticks all the boxes on what we expect 

from an hotel of this calibre: direct access to one of the nicest 

beaches in Tenerife, splendid, lagoon-style pools, a private 

VIP area for extra privacy and 1,000 m2 of magnificent spa. 

The hotel itself is an opulent architect’s dream: from the 

extravagant pool that laps at the terraces of columned 

restaurants to sumptuous interiors to neatly manicured 

lawns, there is nothing understated about the luxury here. 



Iberostar Anthelia 


There is something for everyone at Iberostar Anthelia. Ideal 

for families and couples alike, with an all inclusive board 

option available too. Step into an oasis of luxury and comfort 

within 60,000 acres of manicured gardens, and take in the 

stunning panoramic views of the ocean. Just 25 metres from 

the beach, the hotel enjoys an enviable position between 

two golden beaches.

3. Your holiday booking 

a. To make a booking you can contact us in several ways; directly 

over the telephone, via our website, or through an approved Travel 

Agent. A booking will exist as soon as we issue our confirmation 

invoice (the “Booking Confirmation”). This booking is made on the 

terms of these booking conditions. The person making the booking 

(the “lead name”) must be 18 years old or over and when you make a 

booking you guarantee that you have the authority to accept and do 

accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions. 

We may transfer your booking to another company in our group, but 

this will have no effect on your holiday arrangements. 

b. Whether you book alone or as a group, we will only deal 

with the lead name in all subsequent correspondence, including 

changes, amendments and cancellations. The lead name is 

responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the personal details or 

any other information supplied in respect of yourself and any 

other person travelling on the booking and for passing on any 

information regarding the booking or any changes made in relation 

thereto, to all persons travelling on such booking, including but not 

limited to information on schedule changes or copies of booking 

confirmations. 

c. When you receive the Booking Confirmation, Invoice and 

departure documents please check the details carefully and inform 

us immediately if anything is incorrect. Names on travel documents 

must exactly match those in your passports. Unless we are 

responsible for the mistake, we will not accept liability if an airline 

or other supplier refuses boarding because the name(s) shown in 

your passport differ from those on your ticket. If there is an obvious 

error on the Confirmation Invoice, we reserve the right to correct it 

as soon as we become aware of it, but will do this within 7 days of 

issuing the Confirmation Invoice or, if your departure is within 7 days, 

no later than 24 hours before you go. Travel documents will be sent 

or emailed to you (to the address given to us by the lead name at 

the time of booking) approximately 2 weeks before your departure, 

and will not be issued unless payment of the due balance has been 

received and any cheques have cleared. Bookings made 14 days or 

less before departure incur a £15 per person administration charge 

and tickets will not be sent out by post but will more than likely have 

to be collected at the airport on the day of departure. 

d. We may not be able to confirm some of our ground arrangements 

straight away (e.g. bespoke accommodation, tours etc.). In these 

instances we may issue a Booking Confirmation. However, a 

contract for arrangements that have not been confirmed on that 

Booking Confirmation will only be made when we have sent you 

written confirmation that those additional arrangements have been 

completed. If there is any change to any of the details discussed at 

the time of booking, before the Booking Confirmation is issued, we 

will notify you promptly of any new or changed details, including 

a change to the total price (if any). If any detail on the Booking 

Confirmation is not correct tell us or your travel agent immediately. 

e. When you book your holiday through an approved travel agent, 

all communication between you and us will be made through that 

agent, as such please contact your agent in the first instance, as no 

changes can be made to your booking unless they are done through 

your agent. 

f. For those holidays where an additional local payment is required 

this will be confirmed to you. A local payment is a portion of the 

holiday cost which must be paid directly to the local representative 

as instructed. If the price of your holiday includes a local payment 

this must be paid in the currency specified. Please note that your 

holiday price will not be considered to have been paid in full until 

the local payment has been made. Tourist taxes, resort fees or similar 

that are charged locally may be implemented or changed without 

prior warning. We do not accept responsibility for these costs, which 

must be paid by you and are not included within your holiday price. 

g. Your personal safety is of paramount importance to us and 

therefore it is imperative that you advise us at the time of booking 

of any condition, medical or otherwise, that might affect your or 

other people’s enjoyment of the trip. This should include, but not be 

limited to, any special dietary requirements (including, for example, 

allergies) and any reduced mobility affecting you or members of 

your booking. Please contact us our Sovereign Customer Operations 

team on email customeroperations@sovereign.com to discuss any 

such requirements. 

h. It is a condition of your booking that you and all members of your 

party provide certain information that may be sent to governmental 

authorities and border control and security agencies for the purpose 

of security and counter terrorism. This is known as Passenger Name 

Records (PNR) or Advanced Passenger Information, sometimes 

known as APIS. For the United Kingdom, it may be referred to as 

‘E-Borders’. The information you must provide will include, but not be 

limited to, full name – as shown in your passport or travel document, 

gender, date of birth, travel document type, number, country of 

issue and expiry date, and for travel to the U.S., your country of 

residence and the address for your first night’s stay. You must provide 

this information to the airline between 6 months and 24 hours before 

departure. 

i. All prices we advertise are accurate at the date published, 

but we reserve the right to change any of those prices from time 

to time. In the unlikely event of an administrative error leading to 

an incorrect price being displayed, we reserve the right to correct 

it (including after a booking has been confirmed). Offers are not 

combinable unless expressly stated and may be withdrawn at any 

time. All quotations are provisional until confirmed in writing on your 

Booking Confirmation. Before you make a booking we will give you 

the up-to-date price of your chosen holiday including the cost of 

any supplements, upgrades or additional facilities which you have 

requested. 

j. The price of your holiday will include Air Passenger Duty (APD) 

for an economy seat. If you upgrade to a premium cabin this will be 

included in the upgrade cost. 

k. When the price per person is dependent on the number of 

people in the accommodation and the number of people changes, 

the price will be recalculated based on the new party size. Any 

increase in price payable is not a cancellation charge. A separate 

cancellation charge will be levied in respect of bookings cancelled. 

A new Booking Confirmation will be issued as appropriate on which 

the cancellation charge will be shown. 

4. Paying for Your Holiday and Insurance 

a. When you make your booking the balance of the price of your 

travel arrangements may be required to be paid in full, or if your 

booking meets certain criteria, we may offer you the option to pay 

a deposit of £350 per person or 25% of the total holiday price, 

whichever is higher. If you choose to pay a deposit, the remaining 

balance must be paid in full within the timeframes specified at the 

time of booking and on your ‘Booking Invoice’. 

b. For bookings made via a Travel Agent the balance of the price of 

your travel arrangements must be paid no later than 69 days before 

departure. 

c. Please note that cheques require 5 working days to clear. 

Cheques that will not clear by the balance due date cannot 

be accepted. We only accept card payments from passengers 

travelling on the booking. We also no longer accept payment via 

AMEX 

d. You may also be required to pay for any non-transferable 

and non-refundable items, such as special air fares, tickets or 

entry permits and any other applicable supplements due, at the 

time of booking and they may be non-refundable in the event of 

cancellation. 

e. We cannot accept any liability for tickets lost in the post. 

Departure Documents will be sent via email form. If requested in the 

Departure Documents or locally provided holiday information, you 

must reconfirm the reservations, timings and check-in details of your 

flight with the airline concerned at least 72 hours before departure. 

This applies to your outward flight and to your return flight. If you 

miss a flight or suffer any disruption as a result of not following our 

instructions as to reconfirmation we will have no liability to you. 

f. Adequate and valid travel insurance for your chosen itinerary is 

compulsory for all travellers and it is a condition of accepting your 

booking that you agree you will have obtained adequate and valid 

travel insurance. We recommend you take out insurance as soon 

as your booking is confirmed. You are strongly advised to insure 

yourself against any possible risk that may occur and in particular 

to ensure that you have sufficient insurance in respect of dependent 

relatives and force majeure events. You are required to carry proof 

of insurance with you. 

5. If You Cancel Your Holiday 

You, or any member of your party, may cancel your travel 

arrangements at any time. Written notification from the lead name 

or your travel agent must be received at our offices. Since we incur 

costs in cancelling your travel arrangements, you will have to pay 

cancellation charges as follows (see also the exception below):

insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges; (iii) 

certain travel arrangements may be subject to higher cancellation 

charges and could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that 

part of the arrangements from the moment the booking is confirmed. 

You can cancel your booking without paying cancellation charges 

if the performance of your package, or the carriage of passengers 

to your destination, is significantly affected by unavoidable and 

extraordinary circumstances. In such circumstances, we will arrange 

for your booking to be terminated and for you to receive a full refund. 

We will observe and act in accordance with advice provided by the 

UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office. 

For the purposes of these terms and conditions “unavoidable and 

extraordinary circumstances” include but are not limited to: war,

air traffic management decisions which may give rise to long or 

overnight delays or cancellations of one or more flights), the inability

decision to leave the European Union (including the loss or 

restriction of air traffic or transit rights or the right of airline(s) to enter 

any airspace), epidemic, significant risks to human health such as 

the outbreak of a serious disease at the travel destination, natural or 

nuclear disaster, serious security problems such as terrorist activity,

Commonwealth & Development Office advising against travel to a 

particular destination and significant building work taking place 

outside of your accommodation (such as resort development). 

6. If You Change Your Booking 

If, after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you wish to 

change your travel arrangements in any way, for example your 

chosen departure date or accommodation, we will do our utmost to 

make these changes but it may not always be possible. Any request 

for changes to be made must be in writing from the lead name or 

your travel agent. You will be asked to pay an administration charge 

of £35 per person, and any further cost we incur in making this 

alteration (including those charged by third party suppliers who 

provide the component parts of your booking). You should be aware 

that these costs could increase the closer to the departure date that 

changes are made and you should contact us as soon as possible. 

Note: Certain travel arrangements may not be changeable after a 

reservation has been made and any alteration request could incur a 

cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements. 

You can transfer your booking to another person, who satisfies all the 

conditions that apply to this booking, by giving us notice in writing at 

least 7 days before departure provided that the new lead passenger 

accepts the transfer and these booking conditions. Both you and the 

new traveller are responsible for paying all costs we incur in making 

the transfer. Please bear in mind that certain airlines and other 

transport providers treat changes as a cancellation and charge 

accordingly, up to 100% of the cost for that part of the arrangement. 

Where applicable these charges will be passed on to you. 

7. If We Cancel Your Booking 

We reserve the right to cancel your booking. We will not cancel less 

than 4 weeks before your departure date, except for unavoidable 

and extraordinary circumstances (as defined in clause 5), or failure 

by you to pay the final balance, or because the minimum number 

required for the package to go ahead hasn’t been reached. The 

minimum number required will be provided to you with the holiday 

description. The time limit for cancellation for such failure to reach 

minimum numbers shall not be later than: 

(a) 20 days before the start of the package in the case of trips 

lasting more than 6 days. 

(b) 7 days before the start of the package in the case of trips 

lasting between 2 and 6 days 

(c) 48 hours before the start of the package in the case of trips 

lasting less than 2 days. 

If your holiday is cancelled you can either have a refund of all 

monies paid or accept an alternative holiday of comparable 

standard from us if we offer one (we will refund any price difference 

if the alternative is of a lower value). 


In the event a refund is paid to you, we will: 

1. Provide a full refund of your travel insurance premiums if you paid 

them to us and can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse 

your policy.

8. If we change your booking 

(a) Changes to the price 

We can change your holiday price after you’ve booked, only in 

certain circumstances: 

Changes in the price of the carriage of passengers resulting from 

changes to the cost of fuel or other power sources the level of taxes 

or fees imposed by third parties including tourist taxes, landing 

taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports 

or exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements 

may change after you have booked. However, there will be no 

change within 20 days of your departure. 

We will absorb, and you will not be charged for, any increase 

equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which 

excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges. You 

will be charged for the amount over and above that. If this results 

in an increase equivalent to more than 8% of the price of your travel 

arrangements, you will have the option of accepting a change to 

another holiday if we are able to offer one (we will refund any price 

difference if the alternative is of a lower value), or cancelling and 

receiving a full refund of all monies paid, except for any amendment 

charges. Should you decide to cancel: 1) you must do so within the 

time period shown on your final invoice 2) We will provide a refund 

of insurance premiums paid to us if you can show that you are 

unable to transfer or reuse your policy. 

Should the price of your holiday go down due to the cost changes 

mentioned above, then any refund due will be paid to you. We will 

deduct from this refund our administrative expenses incurred. Please 

note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local 

currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price 

of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. 

(b) Changes other than the price 

It is a term of your booking that we are able to make changes to 

any aspect of your booking. If the change is insignificant, we will 

ensure that you are notified about it. Examples of insignificant 

changes include alteration of your outward/return flights by less 

than 12 hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation 

to another of the same or higher standard, changes of carriers. 

If we are forced by circumstances beyond our control to alter 

significantly any of the main characteristics of the travel services that 

make up your package you will have the rights set out below. 

I. We will contact you and you will have the choice of accepting 

the change or having a refund of all monies paid. You can also 

accept an alternative holiday, where we offer one (we will refund 

any price difference if the alternative is of a lower value). We will 

tell you the procedure for making your choice. Please read any 

notification of changes carefully and respond promptly as if you do 

not respond to us within the timescale given your booking may be 

cancelled. 

II. If you choose to accept a refund: 

a. We will provide a full refund of your travel insurance premiums if 

you paid them to us and can show that you are unable to transfer or 

reuse your policy. 

b. We will pay compensation as detailed below except where 

the significant change is due to unavoidable and extraordinary 

circumstances, which means a situation beyond our control, the 

consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all 

reasonable measures had been taken.

9. Our Liability to You 

You must inform us without undue delay of any failure to perform or 

improper performance of the travel services included in this package. 

If any of the travel services included in your package are not performed 

in accordance with these booking conditions, or are improperly 

performed, by us or the travel service suppliers, and this has affected 

the enjoyment of your travel arrangements, you may be entitled to an 

appropriate price reduction or compensation or both. We will not be 

liable where any failure to perform or improper performance of the 

travel services is due to (i) you or another member of your party; (ii) 

a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel services in 

the package and is unforeseeable or unavoidable; or (iii) unavoidable 

and extraordinary circumstances (as defined in clause 5). 

Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, 

shall be limited to a maximum of three times the cost of your travel 

arrangements. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with 

and/or in an identical manner to the following: 

a) You agree that any transport companies (or other supplier’s) 

own ‘Conditions of Carriage’ will apply to you on any journey by 

road, rail, sea or air. When arranging this transportation for you, we 

rely on the terms and conditions contained within these international 

conventions and those ‘Conditions of Carriage'. You acknowledge 

that all of these terms and conditions form part of your contract with 

us as well as with the transport company. You can ask us or the travel 

agent booking your holiday to provide you with a copy of any of 

the conditions applicable to your journey. The airline's terms and 

conditions are available on request. We will tell you the identity of 

the air carrier when you book with us and if it is not known at that 

time or subsequently changes we will inform you as soon as possible 

and no later than at check-in for your flight; and 

b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal 

Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in 

respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel 

by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of 

accommodation, which limit the amount of and conditions under 

which compensation can be claimed for death, injury, delay to 

passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. We are to be 

regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of the extent of or the 

conditions under which compensation is to be paid under these or 

any conventions. 

You can ask for copies of the travel service contractual terms, or 

the international conventions, from our offices at Sovereign Limited, 

Origin One, 108 High Street. Crawley RH10 1BD 

Under UK law (Regulation 261/2004) you have rights in some 

circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from your airline in 

cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details 

will be publicised at UK and EU airports and available from airlines. 

However reimbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle 

you to a refund of your holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund 

and/or compensation from us is set out in these booking conditions. 

If any payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by 

the airline or any other service provider will be deducted. 

If it is impossible to ensure your return as scheduled due to 

unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances, we will bear 

the cost of necessary accommodation, if possible of equivalent 

category, for a maximum of three nights. The limit doesn’t apply 

to persons with reduced mobility and any person accompanying 

them, pregnant women and unaccompanied minors, or persons 

in need of specific medical assistance, provided that you 

notified us of these needs at least 48 hours before the start of 

your holiday. 

Standards of, for example, safety, hygiene and quality vary 

throughout the transport and destinations that your holiday may 

involve. Sometimes these standards will be lower than those 

which would be expected in the UK. The suppliers of the services 

and facilities included in your holiday should comply with local 

standards where they are provided. 

Note: this entire clause does not apply to any separate contracts that 

you may enter into for excursions or activities whilst on holiday for 

which liability rests with the excursion provider and not us.

We are a Member of ABTA, membership number V4068. We are 

obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code 

of Conduct. We can also offer you ABTA’s scheme for the resolution 

of disputes which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards 

Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to

11. Complaints and Assistance 

If you have a complaint about any of the services included in your 

holiday and/or need assistance whilst away, you must inform our 

local representative, or contact our Customer Operations Team on 

customeroperations@sovereign.com During out of hours, please 

call 03303 321939. 

If it is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of 

your return home by writing to our Customer Relations Department 

at: Sovereign Customer Relations, Origin One, 108 High Street, 

Crawley, RH10 1BD, or email Customer.Relations@travelopia.com 

giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. 

Please keep your letter concise and to the point. If you fail to follow 

the requirement to report your complaint in resort we will have been 

deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify it and this may 

affect your rights under this booking. Please also see clause 10 above 

on ABTA. 

12. Additional assistance 

If you’re in difficulty whilst on holiday and ask us to help we 

will provide appropriate assistance, in particular by providing 

information on health services, local authorities and consular 

assistance; and helping you to find alternative arrangements and 

any necessary phone calls/emails. You must pay any costs we incur, 

if the difficulty is your fault. 

We are able to advise on mandatory health requirements; however, 

we are not medical experts. It is your responsibility to ensure that you 

obtain proper and detailed medical advice at least 2 months prior to 

travel for the latest health requirements, recommendations for your 

destination and any costs. You should check this information at least 

2 months before departure and again within 14 days of travel. Where 

you do not do so and either are not allowed to enter any country, or 

suffer personal injury or death as a result, we have no liability to you 

for any cost, loss or damage which you suffer nor will we refund you 

the cost of any unused portion of your travel arrangements. Clients 

with existing medical problems, pregnant women and anyone who 

has recently visited other countries should check requirements with 

their general practitioner. 

When assessing whether holidays will operate we use information 

from our local offices in conjunction with advice from the UK Foreign, 

Commonwealth & Development Office and other relevant government 

bodies. It is your responsibility to acquaint yourself with the travel 

advice provided by these government bodies. For more information, 

please visit our Travel Aware page and the government websites at 

www.gov.uk/travelaware and www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice. 

14. Conduct 

We reserve the right to refuse to accept you as a customer or continue 

dealing with you if we, or another person in authority, believe your 

behaviour is disruptive, causes unnecessary inconvenience, is 

threatening or abusive, you damage property, you upset, annoy, 

disturb, or put any other traveller or our staff or agents in the UK or 

resort in any risk or danger, on the telephone, in writing or in person. 

If the Captain of your flight or cruise ship or any of our resort staff or 

agents believes that you could be disruptive or that you are suffering 

from a contagious disease, they can also refuse to let you proceed 

with your travel arrangements, restrict your movements on board, 

disembark you from a ship or aircraft, or remove you from your 

accommodation or excursion. 

If you are disruptive and prevented from boarding your outbound 

flight in the UK, we will treat your booking as cancelled by you from 

that moment, and you will have to pay full cancellation charges (see 

section 5). If this occurs overseas then you will become responsible 

for your own return home and any other members of your group who 

cannot or will not travel without you. We will not be liable for any 

refund, or compensation or any costs or expenses you incur. 

If you are refused carriage because of your behaviour, or you are 

under the influence of alcohol or drugs, your airline may pass on 

your details and date of the refusal of carriage to other airlines for 

their information. This in turn may make it difficult for you to book 

other airline tickets. In any of these circumstances no refunds or 

compensation will be paid to you. 

As a result of your behaviour during any stage of your holiday 

including on an aircraft, transfer, in any accommodation, cruise or 

excursion, we reserve the right to make a claim against you for any 

damages, costs and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred 

as a result, including but not limited to (i) cleaning, repairing 

or replacing property lost, damaged or destroyed by you, (ii) 

compensating any passenger, crew, staff or agent affected by your 

actions and (iii) diverting the aircraft or cruise for the purpose of 

removing you. Criminal proceedings may also be instigated. 

For the purposes of this section reference to “you” or “your” includes 

any other person in your party. 

15. Data Protection 

We will use and process your data in accordance with our privacy 

policy. This quick guide provides a brief summary of our data 

practices, but more details can be found in our full privacy policy. 

16. Excursions 

Excursions or other tours that you may choose to book or pay for 

whilst you are on holiday are not part of your package holiday 

provided by us. For any excursion or other tour that you book, your 

contract will be with the operator of the excursion or tour and not 

with us. We are not responsible for the provision of the excursion or 

tour or for anything that happens during the course of its provision 

by the operator. 

17. Travel Agents 

If you book with a travel agent, we will contact you via them. The 

agent will hold your payment on our behalf until your holiday 

is confirmed. The agent must give you a receipt or confirmation 

invoice. We will also send you a confirmation invoice within 7 - 10 

days. Please take your itinerary with you on holiday as it may be 

required to confirm your hotel reservation. 

All monies you pay to the travel agent for flight inclusive product 

are held by him on behalf and for the benefit of the Trustees of the 

Air Travel Trust at all times. This is subject to the agent’s obligation 

to pay it to us for so long as we do not fail. If we fail, any money 

held at that time by the agent, or subsequently accepted from you 

by him, is and continues to be held on behalf of and for the benefit 

of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation to pay 

that money to us. When you buy a holiday not including a flight, all 

monies you pay to the travel agent are held by him on our behalf 

at all times. 

18. Law and jurisdiction 

This booking is governed by English Law, and the jurisdiction of the 

English Courts. You may however choose the law and jurisdiction 

of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you live there and wish to do so.
