Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992

Since 1992 all UK tour operators that offer package holidays have signed the package travel regulations. The regulations set out the tour operators responsibilities to the customer that has booked the package holiday from then and what those customers can do if the regulations are breached. By law you have the right to expect the holiday that you booked and paid for. If the holiday doesn't match the description, under the Package Travel Regulations you may have a claim against the tour operator for compensation. The tour operator, if you've booked a package holiday, is liable for all the services-car hire, accommodation, flights-as long as they were part of the package the tour operator arranged for you. The Package Travel Regulations can be used to assist you in pursuing claims against tour operators. This applies in England, Wales and Scotland.
