At Sovereign, we are committed to working with trusted partners and making sure that their hotels meet our standards, giving you the peace of mind to holiday safely. 

We highly recommend that you familiarise yourself with the travel advice provided by government bodies and sign up to the latest travel alerts relevant to the destination you are travelling to on your holiday.

For more information on destinations you can travel to, safe and private accommodation recommendations, and destination-based government advice, please visit our Travel with Confidence page.

If you wish to add enrol at a later time please call us on 01293 832243*. Full balance to be paid 14 weeks prior to departure.

There is no additional charge for this service.

The deposit required at booking stage is usually £250 per person. Some airfares are booked at especially competitive rates to which the airlines may attach severe restrictions. You may be asked to pay for these in full at the time of booking and they may be non-refundable in the event of cancellation.

Please note that the deposit you are required to pay at the time of booking is clearly shown as "Deposit due now" in the Price Summary (on the Holiday Summary page). Where this does not appear it is because full payment is required at the time of booking.

Seats with extra space can be pre-booked on a number of airlines for an extra charge, however these are subject to availability and some airlines do not allow you to prebook. These seats are often close or next to emergency exit doors, behind a bulkhead or behind a dividing wall. They may therefore have additional space in front of the seat, but not always additional room to stretch your legs out. To check availability and book extra legroom seats please call our Customer Services Team.

Emergency exit row seats are only available to passengers who are able to move quickly and operate the emergency exit without difficultly if necessary, in line with European Aviation Safety Authority (EASA) regulations. These regulations have been put in place by the EASA and are for the safety of all passengers. The cabin crew have the final say and we kindly ask that their decisions are respected.

Some factors can restrict passengers from using exit seats:

• physical or mental impairment or disability
• age or sickness
• physical size
• who requires an extension seatbelt
• passengers who have difficulty moving quickly
• anyone under the age of 14 (whether accompanied or not)
• those under the influence of alcohol
• travelling with an assistance animal

If you or any of your party have a Special Assistance requirement (for disabled or less mobile passengers). Please call 01293 762 402 with your quote reference number and we will endeavour to make sure your requirements are met before booking.

HOW CAN I ARRANGE ASSISTANCE AT THE AIRPORTS?

Wheelchair and special assistance for passengers with reduced mobility and/or sensory impairments can be provided at most airports. It is essential that you arrange this with us at the time of booking to avoid disappointment. If you do not make this request in advance, we cannot guarantee that the service will be available. Simply contact us on 01293 762400 for new enquiries and bookings or 01293 762 402 for existing bookings and tell us the type of assistance required.

• General assistance through the airport to help you with the distance (WCHR)

I AM TAKING MY OWN WHEELCHAIR ON HOLIDAY WITH ME; CAN I USE THIS TO ASSIST ME THROUGH THE AIRPORT?

We will need to notify the airline of your wheelchair and its dimensions and weight and request for you to use it through the airport; however the final decision lies with the airport staff upon check-in. We would recommend that you also request for airport assistance at the time of booking in case the airport staff does advise you to check-in your own wheelchair, you will get an airport wheelchair to use.

I WILL BE CARRYING MEDICAL EQUIPMENT ONBOARD AS PART OF MY HAND LUGGAGE, DO I NEED TO INFORM YOU?

Yes, please inform us of any medical equipment you will be taking on holiday with you and if you will need to use this onboard your flight as it may need to be cleared with the airline.
