OFFICE AUTOMATION
Tthe world-wide Amadeus Computer Reservation System (CRS) installed in our office. This on-line system provides us with an unbiased display of all current airline availability and fare information. Access to hotel reservation information, tour companies, car rental companies, coach reservations and travel insurance are also available through the system. Instant bookings and confirmations are made through the CRS. Tickets are issued by our ticketing partner - Consolidated Travel .


PRICE CONFIDENCE AND PRODUCT ACCESS
We operate on the "best fare available" principle on your selected airline(s), tour and accommodation. We will shop around our travel industry contacts, taking into account your particular requirements and stipulations. We will then tailor the best available options and fare available within your criteria for your consideration. This task can be time-consuming if your itinerary is complex but it is part of the service to our regular clients.

It is a common fallacy that you will get a cheaper deal by going straight to the airline or operator. We will often be able to better the advertised price or fare quote.
Please talk to us about any travel deals you see advertised in the media. . Alternatively, we could find other close alternatives to satisfy your needs and price range.

We have good relations with most airlines, travel wholesalers and hotel chain representatives (often enabling us to negotiate better rates and conditions for our clients).
