earer to nature, edging towards paradise, the Caribbean provides the ideal hideaway. Windswept beaches where the only footprints are yours; coral reefs fringing pristine white sands where a deliciously unhurried vibe permeates the deserted cays and undiscovered
coves. For the romantic, there are lush tropical gardens and dramatic stretches of coastline along the shores of Barbados to explore; private islands for afternoon picnics by warm, turquoise waters. Find blissful seclusion trekking in the dense rain forests of Jamaica or drift like a cosseted castaway amongst the picture perfect islands of the Turks & Caicos, a true escapist’s dream. The hot spots of Anguilla and St Barths are a magnet to the jet-set, whilst the colourful marketplaces of Antigua and St Lucia burst with fruits and handicrafts as exotic as the mix of cultures and influences – French, African and Caribbean. The West Indian soul is joyful...the lifestyle laid-back and languid. In every corner and cove, reggae and calypso rhythms sing out and fragrant spices infuse the air.
There is a destination for every desire and accommodation to match. Vibrant hotels and grand plantation mansions, contemporary spa resorts and utterly private villas. Perfect for those seeking peaceful isolation, rest and sophistication.
From the moment that a travel adventure enters your mind, Carrier’s informed professionals – passionate travellers each and every one – are on hand to weigh up the options and devise the most imaginative itineraries, to seek out the most secluded beaches or exclusive hotels. No need to worry about dinner reservations, finding the best dive schools or the most luxurious yachts to charter.
The world is Carrier’s playground. Travelling alone, in a couple or as a family, our holidays will stretch the imagination: a decadent spa escape, an island-hopping journey of discovery or the quest for the most glamorous destinations. No detail is too small, no challenge too big for a team whose first-hand local insights assure Carrier guests the very best of everything. The destination is only the start. The experience is exclusive to Carrier.

inged with celebrity and artisan chic, this small speck in the shimmering Caribbean displays a sophisticated soul, its dazzling stretches of star-studded coastline providing the ultimate escape. This is where the smart set parties throughout the winter and returns in
summer with the family to relax…the coral sands, swaying palms and tempting waters only part of the appeal. Delicious Bajan food makes an exhilarating introduction to the West Indian way of life – a host of internationally acclaimed restaurants delivering unforgettable epicurean delights. Sip rum punch to the sound of the waves lapping the shore or join in an impromptu cricket match with the locals on the beach – the legendary warmth of the islanders is infectious. The island is famed, too, for its fabulous villas and stylish apartments – set in idyllic beach locations or alongside fine championship golf courses. Tucked away amidst vibrant tropical foliage, a unique collection of high end hotels lines the aptly-named Platinum coast.
Just a short plane ride across turquoise waters lie the Grenadines. Everything here is blissfully stress and fuss free. Encircled by a glorious reef, the unspoilt tropical green hills and secluded white sands invite gentle relaxation. On impossibly glamorous Mustique several homes of the rich and famous are available for hire, whilst tiny Palm Island offers escapism at its purest. Charter a catamaran to glide through the cerulean seas around Canouan and swim with the turtles in the crystal clear waters of the palm-fringed Tobago Cays. Picnic on a sandbar feasting on lobster before returning to shore to sip sundowners to the sounds of sweet calypso jazz.

An exclusive resort nestled amongst swaying palms and tropical gardens of hibiscus and bougainvillaea. The feeling here is that of being a privileged guest in a private home where the stately architecture exudes colonial charm and the beachfront location is the envy of many west coast neighbours. Refurbished Oceanfront Rooms reflect a relaxed island style, with outside ceiling fans and glass fronted balconies making the most of the uninterrupted sea views. New Beachfront Junior Suites with spacious outdoor terraces take service levels one step higher with a VIP airport greeting, a butler and complimentary evening canapés. Enjoy informal lunches at Café Taboras and traditional English afternoon tea on the terrace. As the sun sets, savour fine cuisine at the Palm Terrace Restaurant where regular evening entertainment is presented by local artistes.
Relaxing days on the golden sand beach or within the well-tended gardens are enlivened by complimentary sets of tennis on floodlit courts, a few laps of the large freshwater pool or perhaps a spot of snorkelling, windsurfing, water-skiing or hobie cat sailing in the Caribbean Sea.
48 oceanfront rooms and 24 junior suites.45 minute transfer by road.

Two luxurious and individually styled oceanfront suites feature oversized baths, walk-in showers, a fully-stocked bar and terraces with plunge pools, whilst the romantic Hemingway Suite inspires a lengthy waiting list. Guests can look forward to creative specialities and freshly caught seafood served in style at the award-winning Al Fresco restaurant, set in the gardens with views to the sea.

Cobblers Cove
A country house hotel with a hideaway setting and a dedication to personal service. This intimate Relais & Chateaux resort offers deluxe accommodation with a touch of the tropics and contemporary cuisine with a hint of West indies flavour. its pink-washed main house opens out onto a bar and dining terrace overlooking the Caribbean Sea. its suites, complete with air-conditioned bedrooms, breeze-cooled sitting rooms and terraces or balconies, stud the palm-filled gardens. The tastefully appointed Camelot and Colleton suites boast rooftop terraces and plunge pools. evening cocktails at the bar are a precursor to the fine dining experience that unfolds at the oceanfront Terrace Restaurant, where the catch of the day is complemented by an extensive wine list.
Recreational activities need involve nothing more strenuous than sunbathing around the pool or on the beach, though complimentary watersports, tennis and a gymnasium are all available. Children will enjoy supervised activities in summer whilst their parents indulge in a massage or beauty treatment.
40 suites.45 minute transfer by road.

Canouan Resort, Canouan Island
The Canouan experience begins with a personal greeting at Barbados airport and a warm welcome on board the short flight to this serene island. Here, a tropical paradise unfolds in the form of three perfect satin white beaches and a range of stylish suites and villas. Spacious guest accommodations are decorated in a cool, natural colour palette, accentuated by Indonesian furniture and light linens; many have the added attraction of a private pool.

Leisure opportunities are all-encompassing, from complete cosseting at the sumptuous Canouan Resort Spa, to traditional gaming at the casino.
Recreational pursuits include swimming, scuba diving, windsurfing and the challenging 18-hole championship golf course, whilst the kids club and crèche will entertain younger guests. Boat trips to the Tobago Cays or island hopping on the resort’s private jet may be arranged locally.
20 suites and 30 villas.40 minute flight from Barbados to Canouan, followed by a 15 minute transfer by road.

tep into your own private enclave on a secluded tropical island, away from the world and its routines. Villa living spells freedom of the most intimate and luxurious kind, where privacy is paramount and service discreet. This is where the family and friends can be
together; where couples can luxuriate in their own personal slice of paradise. No-one to disturb, no-one to impose upon your day and everyone’s tastes catered for perfectly thanks to experienced housekeepers, cooks and butlers.
Eat when and where you choose; be as formal or as relaxed as you please. Plan a sumptuous soirée or simply throw a fish or two fresh from the sea onto the barbecue. For special celebrations, villa living provides the perfect environment, with room to relax and socialise, every wish and whim granted. Choose an inland retreat amidst the lush tropical greenery or a sanctuary just a few bare-footed steps from a pristine Bajan beach…a hilltop hideaway or a residence just a chip and putt from a perfectly groomed golf course. Villas in their own magnificent landscaped grounds, many with a private pool, all with beautifully equipped kitchens, cool and spacious living areas, en-suite bedrooms and large viewing terraces. The villa experience is simply more personal and more local…free from constraints and agendas yet steeped in luxury and indulgence.

lying in above the isles, the baroque towers of St John’s Cathedral welcome the visitor to colourful and convivial Antigua. Every street seems to have a lively market…the friendly locals always ready with encouragement to try delicious indigenous fruits such as papaya,
mango and pineapple. There is spice in the air – not just from the famous goat stew with hot peppers, cloves and cinnamon – but in the exuberant approach to life. The island pulsates with steel band celebrations. On Sundays, street parties at Shirley Heights are a riot of rum, beach barbecues and dancing until the early hours. And after the fun, return to a sumptuous hideaway set on a dazzling beach of powder-white sand that melts into the myriad blues of the Caribbean Sea.
Take to the air for the short hop to Nevis. Dominated by dramatic Nevis Peak, the island combines charm and tranquillity, its plantation houses, churches and conical sugar mills evoking a proud colonial past. The pace of life is deliciously slow and sleepy, the verdant landscape undeveloped and delightfully unspoiled. Just seven miles long, this tiny sombrero-shaped island plays host to some of nature’s finest treasures, from hiking trails through lush rain forest to the magnificent floral displays of the Botanical Gardens. Time almost stands still in Georgian Charlestown with its weathered colonial houses and elaborate gingerbread shutters.
The buzz of the British Virgin Islands soon takes hold. Floating in a blue-green world of their own like precious emerald drops, the islands hide a handful of world-class hotels set on spellbinding beaches, some accessible only by boat or helicopter. Indulge in a little independent island hopping, mooring in some of the many deserted coves before diving into an underwater show of brightly coloured tropical fish and fascinating crustaceans.

ANTIGUA 039
Secluded and intimate, this ravishing hideaway is flanked by one thousand feet of unspoiled sands on one side and on the other by a lagoon and tropical gardens. Dotting the hillside and beach, detached cottage suites adopt a minimalist style, featuring crisp, cool linens, contemporary bathrooms, outdoor garden showers and wrap-around verandas. From the Hillside Pool Suites some of the best views in Antigua can be enjoyed from the freestanding baths and private plunge pools, whilst the Beachfront Cottages are just steps away from the water’s edge. At the tiered restaurant an exciting à la carte menu of international cuisine with Caribbean flavours is accompanied by a wide selection of house wines; lunch can be taken around the shaded patio and pool. There is a strong emphasis on personal, yet unobtrusive service.
Those who can tear themselves away from the freshwater swimming pool or beachside bar can take advantage of numerous non-motorised watersports including sunfish and hobie cat sailing, snorkelling and kayaking. Relax with complimentary yoga, Pilates and meditation or choose from an extensive range of pampering treatments at the spa cottage.

Montpelier Plantation
Overlooking Nevis Peak, this thirty acre former sugar plantation is now a stylish, hilltop sanctuary, expertly managed by its ever-present owners the Hoffman family, who extend a warm personal welcome to all their guests. At its heart stands the Great House, a convivial meeting point for pre-dinner drinks that are followed by gourmet meals on the terrace or by candlelight in the intimate and atmospheric surrounds of the old sugar mill. At the pool bar a lighter menu of tapas based on local ingredients presents a more casual alternative. Guest rooms are housed in bright and enchanting cottages spread throughout the colourful gardens, the Plantation rooms and Garden Suite offering a touch more luxury with their wooden floors and modern bathroom amenities. The Villa Suite boasts an entertainment centre and plunge pool.
recreational facilities include a tennis court and sixty foot freshwater swimming pool, or take the short shuttle service to a private stretch of Pinney’s Beach, fully prepared for your arrival with a bar, changing rooms and sun shelters. A relais & Chateaux hotel.
16 rooms, 1 garden suite and 1 villa suite. 40 minute transfer by boat and road.

t Lucia conjures up vivid images of banana plantations, steamy sulphurous springs and volcanic plugs rising majestically from the sea. Everywhere, the pretty villages buzz with delight, the colourful marketplaces infused by French, African, Caribbean and English
ethnicity. This is a place for tropical adventures; adrenaline-charged rides through thick, verdant rainforests or superlative dives escorted home by schools of dolphins. Relish a sunset horseback ride and moonlight dinner on the beach or a dramatic helicopter ride over the Pitons. In Gros Islet the lively street parties celebrate the catch of the day where the sound of steel bands penetrates the warm evening air.
Breathe in the sweet scents of nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger on the spice island of Grenada – its coastline sprinkled with fine beaches and countless secluded coves. Read a good book whilst communing with resident geckos and emerald-throated hummingbirds, or watch giant turtles laying eggs by moonlight. Pass a day in the charming capital, St George’s – graced with Georgian buildings and pastel-hued creole houses it is without doubt one of the most picturesque spots in the Caribbean. Inland the forests and waterfalls of the Grand Étang National Park invite discovery, a riot of colourful, tropical birds and tiny lizards where rare orchids punctuate the dense vegetation. After the explorations, a chance to refuel on corn soup, chicken and rice; feasting on shrimp, lobster and jerk marlin.
Tobago, too, is full of Caribbean flair, the slightest whiff of steel drum harmonics turning sleepy villages into open air dance floors, the revellers dancing until morning light. It is a back-to-nature paradise with the oldest protected rainforest in the western hemisphere, home to over two thousand flowering plants, six hundred species of butterflies and four hundred types of birds. Pigeon Point, near the protected marine park of Buccoo Reef, entrances with its white powder sand beach backed by almond trees and coconut palms – the jetty stretching far into the sea.

Cap Maison
This elegant boutique resort and spa is located in the exclusive Cap estate enclave on an ocean bluff, with breathtaking sea views. Overseen by General Manager ross Stevenson of Cobblers Cove pedigree, its style is reminiscent of an elegant Spanish villa, with landscaped patios and colourful courtyards. Accommodations are furnished with designer touches and contemporary technology, some with the added advantage of a full kitchen. For honeymooners we particularly recommend the split-level Villa Suites with rooftop terrace, private pool and ocean views. Perched on high, the Cliff at Cap restaurant serves à la carte French Caribbean cuisine with an emphasis on seasonal produce. A walk-in wine cellar is stocked with old and new world wines and there is even a rum sommelier to ensure guests savour the best of the local spirit.
Leisure time may be spent by the two pools, in the gym or enjoying a relaxing massage in the small spa. The hotel’s luxury motor yacht may be hired for coastal cruises, or take the steps down to Smugglers Cove beach for watersports, snorkelling or simple relaxation.
49 rooms and villa suites.1 hour 30 minutes by road from Hewanorra Airport, 30 minutes from George F.L. Charles Airport. Helicopter transfers available on request.

eggae, Rastafarians and rum. It’s an intoxicating mix, on an island with more than its fair share of soul. An inspiration to Noel Coward, Bob Marley and Ian Fleming, Jamaica exudes tropical charm. Explore the lush, natural paradise by jeep to discover
heart-stopping views of the Blue Mountains as the early morning mist clears. Pause to watch the iridescent hummingbirds flit from flower to flower…the air redolent with the sweet almond scent of frangipani. Find sustenance at roadside shacks, savouring jerk pork, curry goat and salt fish, before a blissful afternoon gently rafting along the Martha Brae river on 30-feet of bamboo. Linger awhile in vivid villages where the islanders dress up each Sunday, the children literally scrubbed clean, gospel pouring out of the churches. Surround yourself in the steamy, tropical extravagance of Shaw Park Gardens; slip and slide down the Dunns River Falls with their rich foliage of bamboos, ginger lilies and breadfruit trees. At Negril, watch divers plunge fearlessly from the cliffs into spectacular blue seas, or rush through the rainforest canopy on an exhilarating zip-wire. In Jamaica, every day begins with the possibility of something new. Watersports, horse-riding, first class spas and championship golf…life is good in this sun-drenched, soulful isle.

Jamaica Inn
Hidden away on a secluded sandy cove just east of Ocho rios, this idyllic retreat is renowned for its high standards of service and luxury. The genteel atmosphere is reflected in the well-appointed suites, each boasting a spacious furnished balcony or terrace living room with views towards the ocean. Perched on the bluff is a small collection of exclusive suites and cottages with spectacular sea views – most also have a private plunge pool. evenings are magical affairs, with complimentary hot and cold hors d’oeuvres on the terrace and alfresco dining under the stars – an imaginative continental menu with a Caribbean twist is served with impeccable style and enhanced by a selection of fine wines. Gentle music and dancing to traditional refrains is a nightly event.
Blissful days are spent by the pool or on the beach where the complimentary beach service includes a morning round of refreshing fruit or Planters punch. The KiYara Ocean Spa tends to the body’s physical and spiritual needs, whilst golf and tennis are available nearby.
47 suites and 4 one and two bedroom cottages. 1 hour 30 minutes by road from Montego Bay Airport, 2 hours from Kingston.

dark stripe of ocean out on the horizon, glimpsed from the air before descending down the blue spectrum, through sapphire, cobalt and azure to diamond clear water. Anguilla’s shore exudes a deliciously languid vibe with its startling white sands and exquisite
turquoise and aquamarine sea. There are secret coves ideal for picnics and romantic rendezvous, and glass-bottomed boats for visiting the colourful, teeming reefs. Start the day watching the windsurfers at beautiful Barnes Bay, or sail out to Scilly Cay to sunbathe or snorkel. Equally alluring is the prospect of high-end dining in some of the island’s one hundred or more excellent restaurants – ‘the cuisine capital of the Caribbean’ more than justifying its reputation. Golfers will delight in the challenges of the golf course whilst nature lovers can spot birds, bats and tree lizards at Cavannagh Cave.
Charter a plane for the short hop over to St Barths, a tiny, chic hub with an inspiring and friendly vibe. A jet set, cosmopolitan crowd bestows an atmosphere of casual sophistication, beautifully drenched in a profusion of French flavour. It is the place to be and be seen…the deluxe liners anchored in abundance in Gustavia Harbour, the scents of sugar, spices and bougainvillaea flowers drifting on the air as shoppers explore a galaxy of boutiques. Yet despite the glamour and designer lifestyle there are still charming fishing villages to discover like Corossol, and pretty little towns such as Lorient. A hired jeep is a good way to get around – the roads winding and steep with scenic surprises around every bend.

undreds of miniature islands and miles of warm, crystalline Caribbean Sea. The Bahamas is a mesh of dreamy creams and sparkling blues – a place of escapism and relaxation. Island hopping is a way of life...each sandy outpost in the shallow waters having its own
distinct identity From the family-focused activities of Paradise Island to the remoteness and tranquillity of Harbour Island, where golf carts are the preferred mode of transport and clapboard houses dot picturesque Dunmore Town. Stroll along the sugar soft pink sands, dive into an astonishingly colourful underwater world, or pause to try your hand at bone fishing in the unblemished waters.
In the enchanting enclave of the Turks & Caicos, gleaming white yachts drift at anchor in the pristine bays. On these lavish and unspoilt cays, where perfect white sands fuse with the warm turquoise waters, celebrity sightings are a minor sport. It’s a heady mix of high-end Caribbean chic and seclusion, an easy place to blend in with the relaxed and fashionable crowd. Take to the water to gaze on vibrant coral reefs, or hire a kayak to explore the labyrinth of mangrove channels that thread these spellbinding islands. Cast off for Middle Caicos to explore the dramatic caves at Conch Bar, and experience the thrill of viewing humpback whales off the coast during their migration. This is the Caribbean at its most serene and blissful.

exico is an assault on the senses. Exuberant, colourful and dripping with natural wonders, yet accessorised by just enough chic to entice the most decadent of tastes. Mexico is a wild child in Mother Nature’s capable hands: bustling streets, mysterious
jungle and unblemished beaches. On the Yucatan Peninsula, the porcelain white sands of the Riviera Maya are bathed in sun and lapped by a sapphire sea, whilst inland exploration reveals a landscape peppered with sacred cenotes filled with sweet, fresh water. At Chichen Itza, Tulum and Xcaret, mystical Mayan remains evoke a legendary past, whilst Playa del Carmen – once a simple fishing village – buzzes with colourful boutiques, busy restaurants and vibrant nightlife. Dive and snorkel on the huge reef that lies just offshore, the shallow waters on its landward side teeming with fish and irresistibly warm and welcoming. The same can be said of Mexico’s people, always ready with a smile and encouragement to try the traditional Temazcal steam bath. Mural-adorned cantinas serve up their firebrand cuisine of tacos, fajitas, rich mole sauces and spicy salsas, accompanied by ice-cold margaritas. A country crammed with desert landscapes, white-washed sands and hidden haciendas where lively mariachi bands provide the soundtrack to the whole sensual feast.

Set in lush, tropical jungle fringed by white sandy beaches, this opulent enclave incorporates mangrove reserves and a spectacular central cenote freshwater lake – sacred to the ancient Maya. Meander amongst delightful art courtyards that feature specially commissioned sculptures by Mexican artists and unwind in generously sized contemporary rooms, all of which offer a calming water vista and feature outdoor patios with secluded soaking tubs. Palafito rooms are located right on the lagoon and have their own wooden deck for private relaxation. Relish the superb fusion cuisine in Ambar, or eat in more casual style at Aguamarina, the beach club serving a mix of international dishes and home-style Mexican favourites. Retire to the rooftop Mandarin Bar for exotic cocktails.
At the spa, where there’s an inviting central pool, pampering beckons in one of the eleven treatment rooms. There are two further swimming pools, yoga and fitness classes and children will be well looked after with a range of supervised activities at the Kids’ Club.

Carrier Ltd is a member of ABTA, membership number V0391. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct. The following conditions, together with the information set out in the relevant brochure descriptions will form part of your contract with the Company. This contract is made on the terms of these booking conditions, which are governed by English law, and the jurisdiction of the English Courts but not exclusively so if you are domiciled elsewhere in the UK then the Courts of Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland also have jurisdiction.
1. BOOKING YOUR HOLIDAYTo secure your booking you should forward to the Company the relevant payment (see Section 2 below). A contract will exist when we issue our confirmation invoice.The Company will try and arrange for special requests to be met but these cannot be guaranteed. The Company will not be liable if any special request is not met. If you arrange your holiday direct with the Company all correspondence will be forwarded to the lead passenger unless otherwise stipulated. If your booking is made through a travel agent all communications by the Company will be made to that address.
2. PAYMENTSA deposit of 10% of the holiday cost – subject to a minimum of £250 per person – is payable and payment of the balance is due no later than 8 weeks before departure.If the booking is made within 8 weeks of departure, full payment is required at the time of booking. If the holiday is made through a travel agent, all monies paid by the client to the travel agent, under or in contemplation of a contract with Carrier Ltd are held by the travel agent as an agent of Carrier Ltd. If payment is not received on the due date the holiday or travel arrangements will be liable to cancellation which will lead to loss of deposit. Tickets and other documents will normally be forwarded 10-14 days before date of departure. Any cancellations will be subject to the terms in clause 4. - Cancellation by you.Additional deposits may be required for: (a) yachts, villas and certain lodges/safaris and ski holidays (b) departures over Christmas and other periods - as may be detailed (c) certain airfares which have to be ticketed at the time of booking and are non refundable. full details will be advised at the time of booking.
3. PRICE POLICYAll prices quoted in this brochure are calculated on rates of exchange as known on 6 August and as published in the Financial Times of 6 August 2010 (£1 =US$1.591). Brochure prices can go up or down. Before you make a booking we will give you the up to date price of your chosen holiday, including the cost of any peak season supplements, fuel charges, upgrades or additional facilities which you have requested. The price of unsold holidays may be increased or decreased at any time. The price of your holiday will be confirmed on booking. When you have booked your holiday and paid your deposit (or the full amount if you book within eight weeks of departure), the price of your holiday as shown on your confirmation invoice is guaranteed and will not be subject to any changes or surcharges unless you elect to change the confirmed booking (see Clause 5). At no time is the Company liable to give a breakdown of costs due to the nature of the holiday bought by the client.Due to the financial commitments being made by Carrier we regret we are not able to make reductions in holiday prices should the £ strengthen.Those holidays which have not been completed within those date bands detailed within the relevant price panels will be subject to an applicable reduction or increase.
4. CANCELLATION BY YOUAny cancellation by the client must be advised in writing to the Company (signed by the same person who made the original booking). Cancellation will only come into effect on the day written advice is received by the Company. Recorded or Special Delivery is strongly recommended. Upon receipt the following charges (excluding amendments charges paid) will be payable by the client, depending upon the number of days prior to departure

5. CHANGES MADE TO A CONFIRMED BOOKINGThis facility is available and an administration fee of £40.00 (plus communication charges) per alteration will be charged. Alteration of a booking within 8 weeks of departure date may incur additional costs.PLEASE NOTE: Most flight tickets cannot be changed without payment of cancellation charges and/or the cost of a replacement ticket.
6. ALTERATION TO A CONFIRMED BOOKING WHILST ABROADWe regret that no credit or refund is possible for any unused services provided in the cost of your holiday. If you decide to alter your travel arrangements whilst abroad this is your own responsibility and Carrier Ltd or the Company’s Agents are not responsible for any extras or difficulties that may arise with onward travel as a result of such alterations. No credit or refund is possible for any lost, mislaid, stolen or destroyed documents which could be the subject of a claim on your own insurance.
7. CANCELLATION OR ALTERATION BY USWe hope and expect to be able to provide you with all the services we have confirmed to you at the time of booking. We plan arrangements a long time in advance of your holiday using independent suppliers such as airlines, hotels etc., over whom we have no direct control. On occasions changes do have to be made, and we reserve the right to make these. Most of these changes are minor. However, if we consider them a significant change we will endeavour to advise you or your Travel Agent as soon as reasonably possible. A significant change includes a change of accommodation to that of a lower category and/or price, a change of flight time of more than 12 hours, a change of UK departure airport, or a significant change of resort area. In accordance with EU regulations we are required to advise you of the actual air carrier operating your flight/connecting flight/transfer. We do this by listing carriers to be used or likely to be used on the relevant brochure pages and/or your holiday confirmation invoice. Any changes to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate. Such a change is deemed to be a minor change. In the case of a significant change before your departure we will provide you with three alternatives: (a) alternative travel arrangements of equivalent or of very closely similar standard and price, if available. (b) alternative travel arrangements of a lower standard together
with a refund of the difference in price; or (c) cancel your holiday with a full refund of all monies paid. In all 3 cases, minimum compensation will be paid as detailed below unless the change occurs as a result of circumstances beyond our control. Period before departure within which a major change is notified to you or your travel agent
Compensation Per PersonMore than 60 days: NIL 60 – 42 days: £20 41 – 28 days: £30 27 – 15 days: £40 14 – 0 days: £50 Circumstances amounting to “force majeure” include any event which we or the supplier of the services in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid such as war or threat of war, civil strife, riot, terrorist activity, industrial dispute, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, sickness, bad weather, the acts of any Government or public authority and all similar events which are beyond our control. It is regretted that under such circumstances there will be no compensation payable. Please note, we are reliant on information provided by the Foreign Office. A significant change includes a change of accommodation to that of a lower category and/or price, a change of flight time of more than 12 hours, a change of UK departure airport (except between London airports) or a significant change of resort area.
8. OUR RESPONSIBILITIESIf the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed by us or our suppliers we will pay you appropriate compensation if this has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements. However we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to: you; or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel arrangements and where the failure is unforeseeable or unavoidable; or unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall.Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of two times your travel arrangements. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to(a) The contractual terms of the companies that provide the transportation for your travel arrangements. These terms are incorporated into this contract; and (b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions.You can ask for copies of the transport companies’ contractual terms, or the international conventions, from our offices. No.1 Lakeside, Cheadle, Cheshire, SK8 3GW. Tel 0161 491 7600. If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed as a result of failures attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services, or as a result of failures due to unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall, and you suffer an injury or other material loss, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances.
9. RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CLIENTAny passports, visas, health certificates, International Driving Licences and other travel documents required for the holiday must

be obtained by the client, whose responsibility it remains to ensure that these are all in order and to meet any additional costs incurred (whether by the client or by the Company on the clients behalf) as a result of failure to comply with such requirements. You are responsible to arrive at stated departure times and places and any loss or damage which you suffer through failure to do so lies with you. The Company has no liability whatsoever to you through your failure to do so. The Foreign & Commonwealth Advice Unit may have issued information about your holiday destination. You are advised to check this information on the Internet under the address http://www.fco.gov.uk/. Alternatively, you can contact the ABTA Consumer Affairs Information Department on 0901 2015050 (calls charged at 50p min).Under EU Regulation 261/2004 you have the rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be published at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. However reimbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund and/or compensation from us is set out in clause 7. If any payments are due to you from us, any payment made to you by the airline will be deducted from this amount.
10. AIRlInE/AIRpoRT DElAYsWe use the scheduled services of the world’s major international airlines. These are rarely subject to lengthy delays. In the unlikely event that this does happen, arrangements for meals, overnight accommodation, etc. should be met by your airline. Conditions of carriage are available on request. In the event of a flight being delayed, we will arrange for the following to be provided, whenever practical, and subject to the airport being able to cater for this:- over 4 hours, an appropriate meal, and for delays of at least 8 hours extending beyond midnight, overnight accommodation will be provided wherever possible. However, this will depend on such factors as the expected length of delay, local availability of accommodation, immigration rulings etc. Where long flight delays result in lost holiday time, no refunds are given by hotels for unused accommodation, as rooms are held for delayed arrivals, not re-let.Under EU law you may be entitled in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights may be published at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. However re-imbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle you to a full refund of your holiday from us. If any payments to you are due from us, any payment made by the airline will be deducted from this amount. If your airline does not comply, you should complain to the Air Transport users Council on 020 7240 6061 www.aug/org.uk
11. CoMplAInTsMost problems can be sorted out straight away if we know about them. If you have a complaint you must report it immediately and directly to the supplier (eg. Hotel Manager), or the emergency contact numbers provided with your travel documents. If you fail to follow this procedure, this may affect your rights under this contract, as we have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify the problem. If the problem cannot be resolved locally and you wish to complain, full details must be received in writing to: Customer Relations Department, Carrier ltd, no.1 lakeside, Cheadle, Cheshire, sK8 3GW within 28 days of return. should we be unable to resolve your complaint amicably, the matter may (if the client so wishes) be referred to Arbitration under a special scheme which, though devised by arrangement with ABTA, is administered quite independently by the IDRs part of Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. The scheme provides a simple and inexpensive method of Arbitrations on documents alone with restricted liability on the customer in respect of costs. The scheme applies to claims for an amount no greater than £5,000 per person or £25,000 per booking.
12. ConsUMER pRoTECTIonWe provide full financial protection. When you buy an ATol protected air holiday package from us you will receive a Confirmation Invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our Air Travel organiser’s licence number 2968. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the CAA will ensure that you are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking. For further information visit the ATol website at www.atol.org.uk. The price
of our air holiday packages includes the amount of £1 per person as part of the ATol protection Contribution (ApC) we pay to the CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices.
13. InsURAnCEWe believe it is essential to take out travel insurance when you go on holiday.
14. oUT oF DATE RAnGE FlIGHTs our brochures are prepared well in advance and scheduled airlines will generally not have loaded their seats to sell until approximately 10 months before the departure. should this apply we will inform you at the time of booking and calculate the price in anticipation that seats will be available in the specific airline booking class to which our specially negotiated airfares apply. We will issue an invoice recording the arrangements reserved for you and will take a deposit, but a contract will not exist between us. When the airline seats become available to book we will tell you the price and give you 7 days to either accept the price or cancel the booking and receive a full refund. If you accept the price, we will issue an invoice and a contract exists between us. In the event that flight seats/accommodation does not become available, you will receive a full refund.
15. FRoM pRICEsCarrier offers you the flexibility to create your own holiday from the range of accommodation and services available. Because of the wide choice, it is not possible to list every price on every date. A ‘from’ price is indicative of the lowest price available for the hotel or itinerary featured but this may vary depending on a number of factors such as your date of travel and choice of accommodation. To help you in choosing a holiday which is tailor made by us to your requirements, please call our sales team, or visit your travel agent or our website for further information about services and prices. We will be happy to provide you with an up to date quote.
16. TRAvEl InFoRMATIon AnD DoCUMEnTsAfter booking you will receive an invoice with any important information relevant to the destination you are visiting. We strongly recommend that you check the details and read the information. Approximately 10-14 days before departure you will receive your flight/ e-ticket together with an itinerary. However, in the case of late payment and/or late bookings, tickets may be handed to you at the airport on departure. please ensure that you check the flight timings on your tickets carefully. The correct timings, using the 24-hour clock system, may have been adjusted since we published the brochure and since you received your invoice.
17. BRoCHURE ACCURACYWe rigorously check the information given in our brochure about accommodation, resorts, itineraries etc., to ensure it is correct at the time of going to press but in view of the fact that brochures are prepared in advance, advertised facilities may be changed. Therefore changes may be made to the particulars in this brochure at any time before the contract with you is made. In these circumstances we will notify you of changes before you book. However, please bear in mind that hoteliers, restaurateurs, night club owners etc., may wish to maintain or improve their facilities, or even take a break themselves. Flight times, carriers and routes in the brochure are given for guidance only as there may be changes. Final details will be shown on your tickets. Tour, excursion, cruise or safari itineraries may change as a result of local conditions. Circumstances such as these, or weather conditions, time of year etc., may cause some of the amenities we have described to be unavailable or different from those advertised in our brochure. When we are told of any significant or long term changes we will always endeavour to advise you prior to your departure.
18. BUIlDInG WoRKMany hotels and resorts are continuing to develop, sometimes rapidly and intensively and often with little or no advance warning. Whilst we have no control over such work, as a responsible tour operator, it is important to us that you are aware of any significant building/refurbishment work that may be going on during your stay. General refurbishment at hotels is necessary to maintain standards but if we are informed of such work, we will endeavour to notify you of any activity as soon as possible, however near to your departure this may be.
19. FlIGHT CHAnGEsAirlines occasionally may change the type of aircraft used on a particular flight without advance warning. scheduled and charter
flight timings, and days of operation are subject to change. We will advise you of any significant change as soon as we ourselves are informed by the airline. Minor timing changes will be shown on the flight tickets, which you should check carefully when received. should the changes involve a reduction of your duration, we will offer you a refund of any applicable costs.
20. WATER AnD ElECTRICITY sUpplIEsIn many of the less sophisticated destinations we feature, the water and electricity services struggle to keep up with the increased demands from tourism. limited rainfall can put further pressure on their provision. Hotels do everything possible to maintain full services. However, occasional power cuts and/or water restrictions may be experienced.
21. ACCoMMoDATIon In THE TRopICsIn many hotels, especially beach resorts ‘insects’ in the rooms (e.g.. cockroaches etc) are almost inevitable. It should by no means be taken as a sign of dirtiness, simply a fact of life in these destinations. views from some hotel rooms may be partly obscured by palm trees and other vegetation that can grow very quickly in tropical climates.
22. WATER spoRTs AnD oTHER ACTIvITIEsMany hotels offer water sports and other sporting activities, in some cases these may be free of charge. please note that in the interest of your personal safety, the operators of these activities may require that you demonstrate your competence (for example a swimming test) prior to commencement and reserve the right to refuse participation for any reason if they feel this may compromise your or another guest’s safety.
23. BEHAvIoURMost people go on holiday for rest and relaxation, so if in our reasonable opinion or in the opinion of any airline pilot, hotel manager, tour leader or other person in authority, your behaviour is causing danger, damage to property or persistently affecting the enjoyment of others, we reserve the right to terminate your holiday. should this happen no refund or compensation would be paid.
