What is a package holiday?

Any type of holiday such as a city break, a beach holiday, a ski trip or even backpacking around the world can be a package holiday. While packages can be ‘ready-made’ by the tour operator, they can also be ‘tailor-made’ to suit each customer’s preferences and budget.

Essentially, you book a package when you buy two or more travel services together. A package holiday must cover a period of at least 24 hours or involve overnight accommodation and is a combination of at least two different types of travel services, which are listed below:

  • transport (such as a flight, coach or train but not transfers from an airport)
  • accommodation (such as a hotel, villa or apartment)
  • car rental
  • a tourist service (such as theme park tickets, tours, passes or equipment for sports such as skiing) where this is a significant part of the holiday, either because of its value or because it is an essential part of the trip.

It counts as a package holiday if your travel company:

  • Has asked you to pay a single price through a single payment, or
  • Has let you select a combination of services – such as a flight and accommodation – before you agreed to pay for them, or
  • Charged you an inclusive or total price for all the services you bought, or
  • Advertised or sold the travel services to you as a package or similar term, or
  • Sold you one travel service; and then transferred your details, including your payment details to another company which you then booked another travel service through within the space of 24 hours.
