IS YOUR MONEY SAFE WITH YOUR CURRENT TOUR OPERATOR?
When considering a coach holiday always look for the BCH logo on the operator’s brochure. This means that your money is protected by a government approved scheme specifically for coach package holidays (involving coach travel and accommodation of at least one overnight stay).
BCH safeguards your money in the unlikely event that your BCH tour operator ceases trading. You are guaranteed repayment of monies paid. It also ensures the completion of your holiday if it has already started.
