Travel Insurance

Always make certain that you have insurance cover as soon as you book your holiday or flight. If you do not have an annual travel insurance policy you can take out cover just for the dates of your holiday at any point prior to the holiday taking place. The Post Office Travel Insurance includes cover fro Covid.

Taking out cover straight away ensures that should anything unexpected happen that is covered by the insurance policy  you can make a claim . Travel insurance policies vary enormously ALWAYS read the small print

Brexit and how it affects your travel

Passport You will now need at least three months validity left on your passport when travelling to an EU country and probably 6 months for further afield. Be especially careful if you renewed your passport early last time you renewed as this does not include the extra time on your passport between the actual renewal date and the date it was due for renewal. Follow this link, click on the country you are travelling to and then click on Entry Requirements http://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice

The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)  which gave free, or reduced rate, healthcare when visiting the EU has been replaced with the UK Global Healthcare Insurance Card (GHIC).

This is free of charge, visit nhs.uk.ghic to obtain yours. You can continue to use your old EHIC until it expires. Neither of these cards covers Liechtenstein, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland. Do not forget to take out additional travel insurance as these cards do not cover all costs should you become sick or injured when in an EU country.
Remember that the GHIC is not an alternative to travel insurance. It will not cover any private medical healthcare or costs, such being flown back to the UK, or lost or stolen property.

Updates - flight delays


My flight has been delayed. Can I get compensation?

Check the Citizens advice website for detailed information by following this link

https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/consumer/holiday-cancellations-and-compensation/if-your-flights-delayed-or-cancelled/

Also read the following

Airlines don't have to pay out for delays caused by snow because weather is classified as an "extraordinary circumstance" – though some airlines may issue a refund at their discretion. For those of you flying to India you are almost certainly on a non EU airline so contact them direct to see exactly what you are entitled to.

According to Which magazine you can challenge your airline if you don't agree there were extraordinary circumstances – for example, if you are told you can't fly due to the snow, but other flights are departing. "Airlines may stretch the definition of extraordinary circumstances further than they should."

Which Magazine  states:-

If the delay is not caused by extraordinary circumstances you will be entitled to compensation under EU rules, but only if you are flying with an airline based in the EU or with a non-EU-based airline flying from an EU airport, and only if the delay is for two hours or more. If you are flying somewhere else or with a non-EU-based airline not flying from the EU you'll have to check that carrier's terms and conditions.

If you are delayed for two hours or more you are entitled to: two free phone calls, faxes or e-mails; free food and drinks; and free hotel accommodation if you need to stay overnight.

If your flight arrives at its destination three hours or more late you will receive compensation of between €250 and €600, depending on how far your flight takes you. So you'll get €250 if your three hour-delayed flight travels 1,500km or less (ie, London to Amsterdam), but €600 if your plane is delayed by four hours or more and travels at least 3,500km (ie, London to Sydney).

My flight has been cancelled. Will I get my money back?

If your flight is cancelled you should be offered either a refund or an alternative flight to your original destination.

For compensation you will have to look to the EU rules again, though if the delay is caused by snow – and thus an extraordinary circumstance – you might not get anything. If you are covered by EU regulations you will be entitled to travel assistance (such as help with rebooking for a later date) as well as meals and accommodation etc. Check the official EU website for more on your rights.

Feedback

Hi jilly just want to say a huge thank you for linking us up with Lisa in Murcia, she was absolutely fantastic and always went the extra mile. We all gained so much from our week with her, she was so informative and her yoga classes were excellent, we will be recommending her to all our fellow yogis xx

Hi Jilly
I just wanted to drop you a quick line to say thanks for forwarding Lisa’s details to us. We had the most amazing holiday in Isla Plana and the yoga really made the holiday for us.  Lisa was truly fantastic.  She  is an amazing teacher, completely aware of all of her student’s needs and very clear in her instruction.  She is also such a warm, kind person, it really was a joy to spend time with her.  The whole family attended her yoga at some point in the week, and I tried to attend every session.  I came back a lot more flexible than I started out and feeling a lot calmer!  I really hope we will be able to go back at some point, and if we do I will be booking into yoga for the week!
Anyway, thanks so much for the recommendation on your site and for putting us in touch.  We really can’t recommend Lisa highly enough.
Best wishes,
Andrea
  
  
Dear Jilly
I wanted to write with some feedback about Lisa and her yoga classes - I am only sorry it has taken me so long to do so. Lisa was absolutely wonderful from every perspective. I joined the first group class by the church and she was welcoming and wanted to understand the particular issues I was having with my back. Her class was lovely - challenging but not too challenging, and a really nice, gentle start to the holiday. I then attended another two group yoga classes and Lisa gave me two private classes. She had obviously given a lot of thought to my issues and the exercises and poses we did were really beneficial. The group classes were great - the yoga was varied and she focused on different parts of the body each time. In terms of the one-to-ones she was accommodating both in terms of time and place.
Apart from the yoga though, Lisa went out of her way to help us - we had not hired a car (we might in future do that) but she picked us up from a beach further down the coast one day and took us into Mazzaron twice, including to the cafe on the hill so we had a view over the bay. She was very kind to the girls and we all thought she was a really lovely person.
I am already thinking of another visit - and more yoga and would definitely recommend her highly to anyone else travelling to Spain with their family who would still like the feeling of being on a retreat!
So, a great combination - lovely place and wonderful yoga - thank you!
Best wishes,
Judith
