The balance of holiday money is payable a minimum of 42 clear days before your holiday begins, we do not send out a reminder.

Please make cheques payable to S.Witheridge.

Please make sure you have holiday insurance!!  this is very important because Blue Riband Holidays no longer offer a “Cancellation Plan” service. 

It is with regret that Blue Riband Holidays have had to take the decision that we can no longer offer our cancellation plan scheme, something that we have done for several years.  Unfortunately it has become financially untenable, every year more and more of our clients have opted out of the scheme for one reason or another, in many cases it has been because they have their own travel insurance (often free with a bank account) others have said “we don’t need the cancellation plan” or “we’ll risk it” or “we have been coming for years and never had to cancel”.  So for a variety of reasons the amount of money raised to cover genuine cancellation refunds has dwindled to such an extent that it is no longer viable to offer the service.

Please ensure you have travel insurance. This is very important because Blue Riband Holidays will only be able to offer a refund if the accommodation is relet.  Deposit payments are non refundable.
