Our 2007 Walking Holidays and Inspirations brochures are out!
30 September 06
A fresh new look, bigger and better than ever, they will be dropping through your letterbox in the next week.
Walking Holidays 2007 is packed with 7 new worldwide, 5 new guided Classic Walking in Europe and 10 new self-guided and guided trails holidays. Also, as many guests have told us they wish to fly from their regional airport we have introduced our new Airport Hoppa service to ease your transfer in Europe by leaving us to do the organising, look out for this new service on our guided Classic Walking in Europe pages.
You will also find some of our Easier Walks at Bourton-on-the-Water, in the Cotswolds and Alnmouth in Northumberland now enjoy around a 5 hour walk each day instead of the usual 7 hours, allowing you time to explore locally or relax in the house in the afternoon. Again a change made due to your feedback.
Inspirations 2007 also contains many new and exciting holidays for you to enjoy, including music festivals, a Sherlock Holmes break and a Black and White Digital Photography break. To find out more about these and many other new holidays we offer click here.

Today new advice for passengers is being implemented at UK airports. All air travellers departing from a UK airport can now carry onboard ONE larger industry standard-sized bag, no bigger than 56cm x 45cm x 25cm.
In addition, customers who need to carry with them musical instruments may now carry them through security search provided they can be x-rayed.
Restrictions still apply on items allowed through security carried in a cabin bag.
The following items must NOT be carried in the cabin bag:
Liquid cosmetics
All toiletries
All liquids
All drinks
Cigarette lighters must not be carried through security. They may be purchased airside and carried onto an aircraft on the person, except for flights to the USA. They must not be carried in a cabin bag.
Items previously prohibited in cabin baggage, such as sharp objects, should not be carried onboard.
Cabin bags MAY contain the following:
Electronic equipment, including laptops, mobile phones, MP3 players, portable music and DVD players, digital and film cameras, video cameras.
Essential medicines in liquid form, in quantities of less than 50ml.
Baby milk and liquid baby food (the contents of each bottle MUST be tasted by the accompanying guardian.
Solid cosmetics.
Other items normally carried in cabin baggage, such as books, medicines in non-liquid form, keys, and travel documents may be carried in the cabin bag, as long as they fit into a bag no bigger than 56cm x 45cm x 25cm.
Pushchairs and walking aids, including wheelchairs are permitted but must be security screened.
Customers whose bags exceed the permitted dimensions will be asked to check them in and prohibited items will be confiscated by the airport security team.
Electronic equipment such as laptops will be required to be removed from hand baggage and screened separately. We recommend these items be packed carefully for easy removal at the security search point.
Customers may purchase any item in store in the departure lounge before departing their final UK airport and take onto the aircraft as normal, unless they are travelling to the USA.
Extra restrictions are in place for customers travelling to the USA from the UK . Customers WILL NOT be permitted to take any liquid or gel items purchased in the departure lounge into the aircraft cabin. All food and beverage items must be consumed before boarding.
Customers transferring through the UK
Customers transferring through the UK will be subject to the same hand baggage restrictions as those starting their journey from a UK airport.
If you arrive into the UK to connect with a British Airways flight (irrespective of original carrier) with more than one industry standard sized bag (56cm x 45cm x 25cm) or with prohibited items, you may be asked to check additional items into the hold, significantly delaying your onward journey.
Customers transferring through a UK airport onto another flight must not buy any prohibited items such as cosmetics and toiletries until they have cleared security for their final departure from a UK airport.
The air holidays and flights are ATOL Protected by the Civil Aviation Authority. Our ATOL number is 710. ATOL Protection extends primarily to customers who book and pay in the United Kingdom. Click on the ATOL logo if you want to know more
