Jet2holidays, TUI, and easyJet are cautioning travellers that they may face additional charges when booking package holidays, as tourism taxes could apply depending on the destination.
What Holidaymakers Need to Know
With summer approaching, millions of Britons are planning trips abroad. These three major UK package holiday providers outline potential extra costs on their websites. The amount depends on the destination, length of stay, and whether travel occurs during peak season.
Tourism Taxes Explained
Alongside the quoted holiday price, customers will find an estimated tourism tax figure for the entire trip. This tax is typically payable directly at the accommodation upon arrival. The rate is standard for all holidaymakers in a given destination, regardless of which airline or operator they book with.
Travellers are advised to check the specific tax requirements for their chosen destination before booking.
