How does Holirays work?

Holirays is powered by the JLT Group which is a member of PTS*. We have access to trade only suppliers and high street suppliers and use these suppliers to find the best prices and create bespoke holidays to suit your needs. See the steps here and then get in touch with us to tell us what kind of holiday you’re looking for and we will do the rest! *Read more about PTS and how your booking is protected here

How much does it cost to book through you?

Nothing! Commission is paid to us from our suppliers once you’ve booked your holiday. All suppliers have commission baked in to the prices you see advertised, so there’s no additional cost to you.

what suppliers do you have?

There’s so many I can’t name them all and we are getting new suppliers all the time. Some are for trade only that offer better prices and more availability than you’ll find through online platforms. Just some of the partners we have are below:

Why use a Travel agent?

  • Expert knowledge. If I haven’t been somewhere, I’ll ask my extensive network for recommendations or talk to experts at the suppliers I use.
  • Talk to a real person, not a chatbot.
  • Support before, during and after your trip.
  • Save hours searching for holidays online – let us find the best deals for you
  • Your money is protected and your trip is insured and ATOL covered
  • I handle all the admin and logistics for you
  • Access to multiple suppliers = better deals and availability than online
  • Exclusive trips and experiences you won’t find yourself

What can I book?

We book all sorts of holidays, whether they are in the UK or abroad. We can organise all elements of your holiday, from the flights and accommodation to transfers, activities, and the whole itinerary. We offer golf trips, Disney, cruises, villa holidays, safaris, honeymoons, city breaks, and everything in between. Everything we book can be completely bespoke to you.

What Can’t i book?

We don’t book flights only, ski trips or cater for stag and hen groups. We don’t work with AirBnB, although we do have some similar suppliers that regulate the accommodation offered.

Do you price match?

We guarantee to price match online prices from Jet2, TUI, EasyJet holidays and Kuoni. We can try to match anything else! If you’ve seen something you like – fill out our price matching form here

When do i have to pay for my holiday?

This depends on the type of holiday and elements you’ve booked. Packages tend to be a small deposit upfront and then the balance payable around 12 weeks before you go. Low cost flights need to be paid for in advance. Non-refundable elements need to be paid for in advance. Accommodation only with free cancellation can be paid for just before the cancellation date.

How do i pay for my holiday?

All payments go through PTS and are held in trust. I can send you a link to pay via credit card, you can pay via our Manage My Booking site or you can also pay via bank transfer straight to PTS.

How Far in Advance can i book?

This depends on the type of holiday you’re booking. Cruises tend to be released around 18 months – 2 years in advance. Most flights are released around 11 months in advance. Some package suppliers allow you to book earlier than 11 months in advance for certain destinations such as USA, Caribbean, Mexico and Indian Ocean.

Do you only book the deals you post?

No, we can create anything completely bespoke to suit your needs.
