Booking your holiday

If a single room is available at the hotel you've chosen, you'll usually be able to select it from the Travel Options page when you're booking.

Can't find a single room? - Give us a call on 01 693 7700 (ROI) or 028 90 389 387 (NI)

You'll find a selection of twin centre holidays on our website. If they're available, you'll see them in your search results.

If you can't find the twin centre holiday you're looking for online, please call us on 01 693 7700 to book. Calls from ROI landlines cost the standard rate, but calls from mobiles may be higher. Check with your network provider. 

Once you've booked your holiday, you can make a special request by contacting us. We'll add the details of the request to your booking and pass them on to the hotelier.

Unfortunately, we can't guarantee we'll be able to meet your request, but the hotelier will do their best to help.

To find out if your chosen hotel has interconnecting rooms, take a look at the hotel details page. If they're available to book, you'll be able to select them when you get to the Travel Options page. Bear in mind, if you want interconnecting rooms, you'll need to book and pay for two of these rooms.

After you've made your booking, you'll see a confirmation screen that shows your booking details and reference numbers. We'd suggest you take a note of these for your reference.

We'll also send a confirmation email to the email address you provided, within 24 hours of the time you book.

If you haven't received a confirmation email, please contact us for assistance.

When you contact us, please have the following information to hand so we can search for your booking...

- Reference number, if you made note of this
- Lead passenger name 
- Departure date

When booking your holiday, you'll find a whole range of extras available to personalise your holiday to perfection. 

The full details of these can be found here.

These can be added at the time of your booking, if you've already booked your holiday with us and wish to upgrade to any of these, then you can do so through your Customer Account or Manage My Booking if you booked online. 

Alternatively, if you booked in a store you should visit or get in touch with your local TUI Holiday store or give us a call on 0203 451 2688

If you have booked a holiday with a non-TUI airline such as Easyjet, you will need to add extras directly on the carrier website.

If you've got a promo code, you'll be able to apply it when you get to the payment screen during the booking process.

Enter the code in the box and click Validate Code - you'll then notice the amount has been taken off the holiday price. If you have any problems entering your promo code, please contact us and we'll do our best to help. 

Unfortunately, if you've already booked your holiday, we can't add any codes afterwards.  Promo codes can only be used when you make a new booking.

You must be 18 years old at the time of booking and have the legal capacity and authority to book the holiday as the lead name.  

Passengers under 18 years old can travel on a package holiday with us as long as the lead name on the booking also travels on the booking and is over the age of 18.
 
Just so you know, individuals over the age of 18, and who are the lead passenger on the booking, will be held responsible for all passengers on the booking and for all payments due to us. 

Please see our Booking Conditions for more information. 

If your baby isn't born when you book - and you haven't chosen a name yet - enter their name as 'Inf X' followed by their surname. You'll then need to contact us as soon as you know the name so we can change it for you, free of charge.

On the flight
If you're celebrating an anniversary or birthday, why not start your holiday in style by booking Champagne and chocolates for your flight out?

If you would like to purchase Champagne and chocolates, you'll need to contact us at least 80 hours before you're due to travel. Unfortunately, we can't provide Champagne and chocolates on return flights from our long haul destinations, but you can buy Champagne on all short haul and mid haul flights..

At the hotel
If you're celebrating a special occasion, you could consider booking a room upgrade. Or whilst you're away, speak to the hotel and they might be able to arrange something extra for you.

Yes, you can. 

Direct debit is only available for customers with a UK bank account. 

Egypt hotel-only bookings
If you'd like to book a hotel only stay in Egypt with us, you'll need to be a UK resident.

Our website shows an average price per person, which may give the impression that you're paying the same price for a child on your booking as well as for an adult. Our child prices offer a reduction on the adult cost. 

Just so you know, child prices start when two full paying adults share the same room.

You can contact us for a full cost breakdown.

Some hotels do ask for a refundable breakage deposit when you check in. It's up to the hotelier to decide whether to charge a deposit and how much this is, so it's not something that we control.
