Travel guarantee

 

TRAVEL WARRANTY AND YOUR FINANCIAL SECURITY

 

For all travel agents providing travel packages*, the following applies by European law with regard to travel warranty: The warranty prevents consumers from losing the money they paid for their holiday in the event of financial insolvency or bankruptcy of the travel agent or any provider of the holiday. The travel warranty also guarantees travellers who are already travelling that they will be repatriated in case of emergencies.

(*A travel package is a holiday which consists of several elements comprising at least transport and accommodation (overnight stay or period of more than 24) or one of them plus another essential tourist service).

NOTE: This travel guarantee is not the same as a medical or cancelllation insurance. We still strongly advise you to organise that yourself. Not having these insurances can lead to (serious) additional costs in case of any mishappenings before or during your fishing trip. This travel guarantee is only an insurance that secures your payment in case our company or any of the suppliers has to file for bankruptcy.
