For more detailed information on directions, parking, facilities and terminal layout at all UK airports. Please choose your departure airport from the list below.
Most bookings made within 14 days (21 days in high season) of travel will be a ticket on departure (you will collect your tickets from the flight operators desk at the airport). Where tickets are to be posted to you prior to travel they will usually be sent out 5-10 days prior. All flight tickets that arrive at our offices from the airlines are forwarded on to customers that day. We apologise if yours do not arrive in time to be posted, however On The Beach Limited has no direct control over when the airlines print and send their flight tickets on to us.
Generally the same rules as above apply for e-tickets, however your e-tickets will be sent to you via e-mail to the address we hold on record for you. If you have not received your e-tickets within 5 days of travel then please e-mail us, log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our ticketing department.
It is common for flight tickets to arrive no more than 7 days prior to travel. If you have not received them 5 days prior to travel then please-mail us, log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our ticketing department.
We will contact the airline to arrange a ticket on departure (this will of course not be charged to you). You will then simply follow the procedure as if your booking had always been a ticket on departure and visit the tour operator desk at the airport and collect the tickets with your reference number (provided on your paperwork or by our ticketing department).
Ticket On Departure (TOD) normally means that you have booked at short notice and rather than rely on the postal service to make sure you receive your tickets you simply collect them using the supplied voucher/reference number at the relevant ticket desk of your departure airport. The collection details will be provided on your paperwork and in general will be from the flight operators desk in the terminal building at your departure airport. In some cases tour operators use airport agencies to distribute their tickets at the airport in which case you will need to go to the relevant agency desk at the airport. If you have any problems with this then please see the information desk at the airport and tell them which flight operators you are flying with.
We will not send you tickets for no-frills / low cost carriers all you need to take to the airport is your confirmation email, or postal receipt which was sent to you shortly after your booking was confirmed. If you no longer have this then you will need to contact the airline in question directly on the details provided on the Low Cost Flight section of our FAQ,s
Almost all flights booked through On The Beach Limited are booked with airlines on a flight/seat only basis. What this means is that your flights are not booked with the company providing your accommodation. Therefore the airline will not hold details of your accommodation arrangements. These are displayed separately on page 3 of your booking summary. Should you have flights booked with a tour operator that also offers accommodation then on their tickets, where they would usually display any accommodation booked with them, it may state FLIGHT ONLY or other such text. To confirm exactly who your accommodation is booked with please refer to page 3 of your booking summary.
Please return to the top of this section and scroll down the airport list, every airlines departure information is listed on the relevant airports website. Should you not be able to find the information you require then please e-mail us, log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our ticketing department.
In general airlines recommend that passengers check in for their flights at least two hours prior to the stated flight time. Passengers collecting their tickets at the airport (Ticket On Departure) should allow extra time for the collection of their tickets.
Unless you have booked and paid for pre booked seating the airlines can give no guarantee that your party will be seated together. They will however always endeavour to seat everyone under the same reference number together. Should you want us to try to arrange pre booked seats for you, or should you have any other type of seating request please visit the manage your booking section of our website and use the add in flight extras page.
Many airlines no longer offer in flight meals as standard. Where these are included it will be clearly marked on your flight tickets or paperwork. Where we are able to offer you the option to add meals to your booking then we will do so. Should you wish us to add in flight meals to your booking, providing time permits and there is availability, we can do this for £15 per person plus an On the Beach Limited service charge. Please visit the manage your booking section of the site and use the add in flight extras page. Please note most airlines will offer a pay on board trolley service.
All airlines have a standard baggage allowance which is included in our online prices. For some airlines this is only a 5kg-10kg piece of hold luggage for others it may be 20kgs hold luggage and 5kgs hand luggage. For some airlines it is 15kgs hold luggage and 5kgs hand luggage. It can vary greatly and what allowance you are entitled to will show in the booking conditions of your airline. In some cases certain charter and No Frills airlines may charge to check in hold baggage. Where this is the case you will be offered the option to add this to your booking. Please note On The Beach Limited does not set luggage allowances and has no control over what individual airlines will allow. For further information on your airlines policy please refer to your airlines booking terms and conditions available on your booking summary. If you would like to add hold bags to a booking you previously declined them on, or if you would like to increase your luggage allowance, where available, then please visit the manage your booking section of the site and use the add in flight extras page.
If you have not received your On the Beach luggage labels then please log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our ticketing department drop us an e-mail and we will send some on to you.
If the flights are delayed by a few hours then remain at the airport and listen for information (or look on the screens) regarding the estimated departure time. If the flights are delayed by more than a few hours most (but not all) airlines will offer a voucher or similar for food and drinks in one of the airport restaurants. If the flights are delayed by more than 12 hours and you have insurance you will usually be able to make a claim please refer to your individual insurance policy for more details. Please note On The Beach Holidays has no direct control over how airlines operate their services during difficult situations such as flight delays all the information regarding your delay must be obtained directly from the airline in question or their representatives at the airport or in resort.
Yes flight times should be confirmed direct with the airline concerned 24-48 hrs prior to departure from the UK and whilst in resort. Direct contact details for your airline can be found on your flight tickets.
We will not send you flight tickets for no-frills / low cost carriers all you need to take to the airport is your confirmation email which was sent to you shortly after your booking was confirmed. If you no longer have this then please log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our ticketing department drop us an e-mail and we will send another copy on to you.
Many low cost/no frills airlines charge to check in hold baggage. Where this is the case you will be offered the option to add this to your booking.
When booking with certain low cost airlines you are required to give some additional passenger information when travelling to Spain and its islands. Where this is required we will ask you to send us this information via our manage your booking section. Just log in and if it is required for your booking there will be a page to fill out.

We do however want you to be happy with their chosen hotel therefore if you do still wish to pursue a hotel change please visit the manage your booking section of the site and submit a hotel change request.

When travelling on flights departing the UK after midnight, your room will be reserved from noon the previous day. You must normally therefore check out of your room by 12 noon on the day before a night flight home or on the departure date for an evening flight. We can request a late check out room for you. However this is not guaranteed and where available you will have to confirm and pay for its availability with the hotel reception upon your arrival. We have no facility available for us to book this for guests before arrival.
If we were not to book the hotel until the day that you land (for flights landing in the early hours of the morning), you would not be able to access your room until approx 14.00 on your day of arrival. Your flight details are passed over to the hotel suppliers when booking so hotel staff are aware of your flight timings. Should you not already have a late check out requested then please log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our admin department drop us an e-mail including your hotel reference number and we will do this for you.

Unless otherwise stated infants do not count towards your total room occupancy.

All of the major airports operate on a 24-hour a day basis. Many of the airports on the Greek Islands for example handle many more flights from the UK during the night time than the daytime. As with any UK airport if you depart from the main terminal buildings, the taxi ranks are immediately outside and prices vary depending upon the resort you are travelling to.
It depends on which company your booking has made with. In most cases there will be reps at the airport and reps may also visit your hotel. Details of how to contact the local agent or representative for your resort can be found listed on page 3 at the bottom of your hotel voucher on your On the Beach paperwork.

We can generally change names on most bookings. Some airlines will not allow you to change the lead persons name on the booking. Instead they make you cancel their place and rebook if available at the current cost. However this does not apply to every airline. All other names on a booking can be changed so should you wish to change a name/s on a booking please visit the manage your booking section of our website and submit a name change request.
We can generally add extra passengers to any booking so long as there is availability on the flights you wish to travel on and at the hotel you wish to stay in. Please visit the manage your booking section of the site and submit an add passenger request.
This is often the most difficult and costly amendment you can make to an existing booking. Many airlines do not allow you to change dates of flights once booked. Generally they will make you cancel the existing booking at the cancellation charges applicable for the time and then rebook at the new cost for the new dates if available. If you can find new flights on your new dates with the airline you are already booked with they may charge a smaller amendment fee as opposed to making you cancel the existing booking. If the new flights you wish to travel on are with a different airline then you must cancel the old booking and rebook with the new airline concerned and this will always be a costly amendment to make.
The same will apply to your hotel booking. Should the hotel be available for your new chosen dates you will have to cover the cost of any amendment charges and also the possible increase in cost for the new dates you wish to travel. Due to the complex nature of such amendments On the Beach Holidays will always levy administration charges against any booking date change request. Please visit the manage your booking section of the site and submit a change dates request.
Certain amendments can be made to your booking details prior to departure. Check through the above list first as most amendments already have a formatted form set up that you must complete and send to us before any amendments can be actioned. If you cannot find one that relates to the amendment you wish to make, then please log into the manage your booking section of our website where you will find contact details for our admin department. Drop us an e-mail including your reference numbers and what amendment it is you wish to make. We will aim to respond by return e-mail within 48 hrs with a response to your query.
