If you’ve made an eligible booking then you’ll get free weather protection, meaning that if it rains during your jolly, we’ve got you covered. You can get up to £300 back if it rains for 2 days or more during your holiday (excluding the first rainy day).

If you’ve booked a 3* holiday with us for 7 nights or more before the 31st August 2026, at least 60 days from departure and for 6 people or less, departing before 31st December 2026 then you’ll be eligible for this perk!
