The travel industry is highly regulated. From package holidays to flights, travel companies are required to have certain licences, insurances, insolvency protection and accreditations depending on what travel services they’re selling and how. Our expert travel team can provide advice to ensure you know your regulatory obligations and how to comply with them. It doesn’t stop there though, we can also advise you on your legal obligations post-booking too, such as when a holiday or travel service is cancelled or can no longer be provided, or when a customer is unhappy with the service they received.
