ABTA - PERMITTED SURCHARGES
ABTA's Code of Conduct requires ALL ABTA principals to comply with strict rules relating to the imposition of surcharges to a package holiday. A surcharge is defined as a supplementary amount requested from Clients after the booking has been confirmed by the Tour Operator, and which is levied in addition to the original confirmed package price.
Before an ABTA operator can impose a surcharge they must first reserve the right to do so in their booking conditions, and then apply to ABTA's Legal Department for permission to do so and provide evidence that the surcharge is justified.
