Booking a holiday can be an exciting time. It may be that you booked your holiday a year or so ago and are in the process of paying for it monthly or you have saved up and have money in the bank to start finding the perfect get away for you and your family.
When booking a holiday, there is a risk concerning the company you book with. Over recent years we have heard of a number of holiday companies going in to administration and thousands of customers losing out on their money and holiday. Booking with a company that is ATOL protected will ensure that you are not stranded or left out of pocket when should your holiday be cancelled by the company you booked with. ATOL only protects holidays that have been booked as accommodation and flights as a package not just accommodation or just flights. Paying for your holiday on a credit card or by Pay Pal may also offer you a little more assurance that your money is protected.
