What is the latest check-in time - Check-in opens at the airport 2 hours before departure, which is the time we recommend  you check-in as it gives a margin for delays you may encounter finding the desk. Check-in closes 45 minutes before departure and if you have not checked in by then you will not be accepted for travel.

Where do I check-in. Please proceed to the following terminals; Stansted check-in at the main terminal, Manchester check-in Terminal1, Heathrow Terminal 3 and Gatwick North Terminal.

When do child ages apply.  The infant fare is applied to children under two years of age at time of return flight.  Child fares are applied to children under 12 years of age when the return flight departs.  The childs date of birth needs to be printed on the ticket and is checked at check-in.

Sometimes your fares are dearer, why is that.  We are as competitive as we can be and, to keep our licences, abide by the rules.  Some tour operators have allocations at special fares given to them to sell with hotel accommodation and, although they are not supposed to, they may sell off (dump) their excess capacity on a seat only basis and to encourage sales they undercut the correct tariff. These types of ticket are far more restrictive, totally non-refundable in the event of cancellation, changes are often not permitted and tickets are likely to be dispatched to you at the very latest opportunity.
