ATOL Protection
What is ATOL?
ATOL (Air Travel Organiser's Licence) is a UK financial protection scheme managed by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). It protects most air package holidays sold by travel businesses that are based in the UK. The scheme is designed to ensure that if your travel company fails, you don't lose your money and you aren't stranded abroad.
The ATOL Certificate
When you pay for your trip, you will be issued an ATOL Certificate. This vital legal document contains your name, booking reference, ATOL holder name and license number, list of services covered, total price paid, and important information about your protection.
