Guaranteed Free Child Places
Some tour operators promote 'guaranteed free child' or 'guaranteed free kids' places in the descriptions of holidays on our website. These are usually available for customers booking early for future holiday seasons and will be withdrawn by the tour operator on specified dates. (These dates can usually be found in the tour operators 'Holiday Information' displayed on our website at the point of confirming the booking). A guaranteed free child means you benefit from not paying the applicable child price for the first child. (The current selling price for that child applies once the guaranteed free child places booking period ends or you have the option to choose to pay for the child in order to benefit from other savings or discounts) If you book before the guaranteed free child place booking period ends, you will see the basic cost for the first child on your booking shown at nil cost. If the booking period has expired, the tour operator will show the lowest available first child price for that holiday. Free or discounted child prices are subject to the tour operators child price conditions as contained in the 'Holiday Information' section as previously referred to.
Free Child Places
Some tour operators promote 'Free Kids' or 'Free Child Places' in the descriptions of selected holidays on our website. Tour Operators will limit the number of places available at these properties and by room type, availability is also usually restricted by date or travel and UK departure airport. A free child means you benefit from not paying the applicable child price for the first child. (The current selling price for that child applies if no free child places are left or you have the option to choose to pay for the child in order to benefit from other savings or discounts). Although descriptions may refer to the hotel/apartment having free child places, the actual availability for these is determined by the room type and flight you select and if a place is available you will see the basic cost for the first child on your booking shown at nil cost. If there are no free child places available when you book, the tour operator will show the lowest available first child price for that holiday. Free or discounted child prices are subject to the tour operators child price conditions as contained in the 'Holiday Information' section displayed on our website at the point of confirming the booking.
