    ATOL: Safe in Our Hands       atol_6387

    You may be asking yourself how sure you can be that your money and trip is safe in our hands?  Caledonia Languages Abroad has been trading for 12 years and is financially steady.  We have grown slowly and surely over the years, and are careful about where we take you, who our overseas partners are and how we operate. 

    When you book a trip with us, both your holiday and your money are fully protected under our ATOL licence which covers your 'air package holiday'.  This term means arrangements which we have made for you which include a flight and ground services (e.g. accommodation, language course, activities, excursions).  If you book a flight only with us, you are also covered for failure of the airline. 
    If you opt to book your own flights, you should either ensure that the agent has an ATOL licence or, if booking direct with the airline, pay by credit card or take out SAFI (Scheduled Airline Failure Insurance) to protect your money.

    If you have booked your flights elsewhere but book your accommodation, language course or other tuition and other ground services with us, these are not covered by our ATOL licence. However, if our overseas partner fails before you start your trip, we will find you an alternative at the same price.  You may also want to take out insurance to cover you if you have to cancel your trip.

    Happy (and safe) travelling!
