Our Brexit Guarantee

Now that the UK has left the European Union, the country has entered a pre-agreed transition period, which is scheduled to last for the rest of 2020. During this period, flights between the UK and the EU will continue to operate as normal, and passport and visa requirements will remain unchanged, leaving holidaymakers like you unaffected (though we recommend you have at least six months left on your passport from your arrival date in the EU). Book one of our cruises, where all payments on board our British-owned and operated ships are charged in pounds, and you'll also avoid any potential exchange-rate fluctuations due to Brexit.

Above all, your booking with Newmarket Holidays, a full member of ABTA (the Association of British Travel Agents), will continue to be covered by the Package Travel Regulations. And so, in the very unlikely event that we are unable to operate your holiday as planned, you will be entitled to a full refund.

And whether the pound rises or falls you can book with confidence, certain that the price you pay will stay the same thanks to our no-surcharge guarantee.

Whatever the future holds, your holiday is in safe hands.

ABTA’s Brexit advice for travellers can be found here.

• Will I need a visa to travel to the EU?

  Not according to the European Commission. The European Parliament have confirmed that UK citizens will still be able to travel to the EU without needing for a visa.

• Will flights operate?

  The European Commission has said that UK airlines will still be able to fly from the UK to the EU. And the UK government has said the same will be true for EU airlines flying into the UK.

• Will my passport still be valid?

  The UK government recommends that you have at least six months left on your passport from your arrival date in the EU.

• What if my holiday is cancelled?

  Your Newmarket holiday will continue to be protected, meaning that you will receive a full refund if your holiday can no longer be provided.

• Will my European Health Insurance Card still be valid?

  In line with ABTA recommendations, we have always advised travellers to make sure they have appropriate travel insurance whether they have a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or not, as there are limitations to the EHIC.
