Infants and child seats
We do not include infants in the calculations below. Therefore, you may wish to book a larger car if taking an infant with you. If you anticipate taking more luggage than is likely to fit in the boot then please ensure you upgrade to a car with a larger boot as roof racks are usually not available. Charges for infant/child seats are payable locally but these must be requested at the time of booking.
Fly-drive holidays with car included
Where a car is included in the price of a holiday, prices are based on a minimum of 2 people.

Where there is only 1 person travelling, a supplement and booking can be made on request. If you wish to upgrade to a larger car, then a supplement will be applicable and subject to availability. Please consider how much luggage you require when selecting your car size.

All cars will be booked for collection at the airport on your day of arrival unless otherwise stated at the time of booking. Should you wish the car to be delivered to your accommodation a delivery charge will apply.
