All of our package holidays are ATOL protected. If you’re not familiar with ATOL, it’s the government-backed holiday protection scheme.

For more information, read through our booking conditions or visit the CAA website.

We want our holidays to benefit the places you love to visit. That’s why the TUI Care Foundation supports projects in our destinations that are improving the lives of young people, caring for the natural world, or helping local communities thrive.

After we receive your letter, we’ll be in touch to confirm whether or not we can give you the extra luggage allowance.
