What if I have a complaint?

We always work with our customers to resolve any complaints there and then, however in some cases, due to time differences, the quickest way can often be to direct your concerns locally, so we would suggest taking these steps.

In the first instance, raise the complaint with the hotel reception, airline crew/desk or transfer company (you will find local contact numbers on your paperwork” and seek to get a resolution you are happy with.

If this doesn’t solve it, please contact us where we will pick it up at our earliest opportunity and contact you for more details. Out of hours we check our messages regularly, but not overnight so it may be the following day before we are able to get in touch.

Bookings

Do I need to buy travel insurance?

Adequate travel insurance is a condition of your contract with either us or the supplier in question, as applicable.

You must take out a policy of insurance in order to cover you and your party against the cost of cancellation by you; the cost of assistance (including repatriation) in the event of accident or illness; loss of baggage and money; and other expenses. If we have issued your policy, please check it carefully to ensure that all the details are correct, and that all relevant information has been provided by you (eg. pre-existing medical conditions).

Failure to disclose relevant information will affect your insurance. If you fail to travel with adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.

What kind of travel insurance do I need?

Travel Insurance varies depending on your trip. For example, if you will be going on an active holiday you will need to ensure the activities you will be carrying out are included within your insurance in case of an incident.

Please visit https://murraytravel.co.uk/our-difference/travel-insurance to find out more about our insurance.

I want to cancel/amend my booking; how can I do this?

Any cancellation or amendment request must be sent to us in writing by the lead passenger and will not take effect until received by us. Please get in touch at the earliest date if you wish to cancel or make any changes by contacting us on 0808 169 8208 or direct with the travel advisor you have been in contact with.

If you cancel or amend your booking the supplier may charge the cancellation or amendment charge shown in their booking conditions (which may be 100% of the cost of the travel arrangements). We may collect this on their behalf, and you also must pay us any applicable administration charges.
