Covid-19

We are receiving a large volume of enquiries relating to airline and package holiday refunds due to Covid-19. 

We cannot respond to individual enquiries.

Due to the Covid-19 outbreak and in line with Government guidance, our staff are working from home and our offices are closed to visitors who do not have appointments.
 
You can help us through this unprecedented time by not communicating with us via traditional post as far as possible. Instead, please email us and do not contact us by post until further notice. If you send any documents by post rather than by email, please also send copies of the relevant documents by email at the same time.
 
Note that all documents should be sent to us electronically. 

See our guidance relating to COVID-19 for more information.
