You only pay the price difference if you book more expensive dates for your replacement booking.

The countries taken into consideration in this policy as countries of residence are the ones registered in your booking details, and Spain, as your holiday destination.

You must have adequate travel insurance in place as per our standard terms and conditions. We also strongly recommend to take out adequate insurance to cover you in the event of cancellation due to illness (including Covid).

FAQs

  • Even if I may be allowed to travel, I wish to defer my dates. Is this possible?
    If you are allowed to travel you will no longer be eligible for change of date requests.

  • Can I make a claim to my insurer if your special Covid policy doesn't cover me?
    Yes, any money you may forfeit may be recoverable under your travel insurance policy and so we always advise that you check with your insurance company.

  • What happens if my flights are cancelled?
    If your flights are cancelled you must contact your travel insurer. Your would normally be covered under the travel disruption clause.

  • What happens if I have to quarantine on arrival to Spain?
    RT will find a solution with the property owner so that you can at least request to postpone your dates (no administrative fee would apply), should you wish not to go ahead with your original dates.

  • I have a voucher valid until the end of 2021, can this be extended to 2022?
    Yes, this is possible and a small fee applies. Please contact us to arrange this before the voucher expires. Once the voucher expires we are not able to extend its validity.

  • Can I delay balance payment for my booking?
    If there is offical advise against travel to Spain at the time the balance payment for your booking is due, it may occasionally be possible for us to delay the balance payment due date for usually up to 1 or 2 weeks. We try to negotiate this on your behalf and this is to the property owners discretion. If this delay is agreed, it means you are committed to go ahead with your original booking if travel restrictions change and you are allowed to travel. 

  • Can I transfer my booking to someone else?
    If you decide you don't wish to travel this year, someone else may want to take your booking. As long as the new party leader accepts our standard terms and conditions, this booking modification may be made. Please note that a small fee applies to make this change as detailed in our standard terms and conditions.

  • What happens if I don't pay the balance for my booking?
    A non payment of the balance payment is understood as a cancellation as indicated in our standard terms and conditions.If you would like to avoid automatic cancellation due to one of the reasons outlined in these conditions, please contact us before your balance is overdue.

We are very conscious and respectful of your right to privacy.

In order to process your booking and to ensure that your holiday arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements, we must, of course, use the information you provide such as name, contact details, special requirements etc. But we take full responsibility for ensuring that proper security measures are in place to protect your information.

We must pass the information on to the relevant suppliers of your holiday arrangements such as property managers, keyholder-caretakers and related service providers. The information may also be supplied to public authorities such as customs/immigration if required by them, in accordance with the law.

If we cannot pass this information to the relevant suppliers, we cannot administer your booking or arrange the holiday. In making this booking, you consent to this information being passed on to the relevant persons.

We don’t like spam ourselves and we restrict our own promotional mailings to two typically non-aggressive instances:

  1. When a new user actively requests that we send details of special offers, or similar.
  2. Occasional promotional mailings to former clients that they can opt out of at any time.

Otherwise, we never use your  personal information for any purpose other than arranging your holiday booking.

You are entitled to a copy of your information held by us. If you would like to see this, please ask us. (We may make a small charge for providing this to you).
