OUR POLICIES

The law says your holiday must be protected if it is a package holiday.  Team Travel Management protects your money with ATOL and ABTA.

ATOL (which stands for Air Travel Organiser’s Licence) is a UK financial protection scheme and it protects most air package holidays sold by travel businesses that are based in the UK.

Our ATOL is registered in the name of Tourvest Destination Management UK Ltd t/a Team Travel Management (previously Team Sports Travel) and Springboks on Tour.  Our ATOL number is 10991 and our certificate can be found here.

Some of the flights and flight-inclusive holidays/ tours on this website are financially protected by the ATOL scheme but ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday and travel services listed on this website. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking. If you do not receive an ATOL Certificate then the booking will not be ATOL protected. If you do receive an ATOL Certificate but all the parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected.

For package holidays that do not include air, as a member of ABTA, financial protection is provided for your money. Again, protection does not apply to all holiday and travel services listed on this website.

Both schemes ensure that if a travel business ceases trading, the customers of the failed company are protected, and the relevant scheme will ensure that the customer can return home (if on holiday/tour) and will not lose their money if the business collapses prior to travel.

Please see our booking conditions for information, or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate, click here.

ABTA is the UK’s largest travel association, representing travel agents and tour operators and lead the travel industry in supporting high service standards, high health & safety practices, and promoting responsible tourism. Tourvest Destination Management UK Ltd t/a Team Travel Management is a member of ABTA – Member number: Y6618.

ABTA and their members help holidaymakers to get the most from their travel and assist them when things do not go according to plan. This means you have the benefit of ABTA’s assistance and Code of Conduct. We provide financial protection for your money when you buy a package holiday. If you buy a package that includes a flight then this will be financially protected by ATOL, if you buy a package excluding flights, this will be financially protected with ABTA, but if you buy other travel arrangements from us such as accommodation (which does not form part of a package), neither the ABTA or ATOL protection applies.

If you have a complaint about your tour, please email with all the relevant details at info@teamtravelmanagement.com. Whilst we would always do our utmost to find a resolution to complaints you have access to use ABTA’s Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) scheme which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to use ABTA’s simple procedure. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com. You can also access the European Commission Online Dispute (ODR) Resolution platform at http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. This ODR platform is a means of registering your complaint with us; it will not determine how your complaint should be resolved.

For further information about ABTA, the Code of Conduct and the arbitration scheme available to you if you have a complaint, contact ABTA, 30 Park Street, London SE1 9EQ. Tel: 020 3117 0599 or www.abta.com

For more details about how your package holiday/tours are financially protected, please go to ‘Your financial protection’.

On the suggested tours featured on our website, you will find a ‘Health, Safety & Entry Requirements’ section for each tour which will provide you with links to the latest travel advice from the Foreign & Commonwealth Office for that particular destination, giving the most up to date information on:

  • Safety & Security
  • Terrorism
  • Health
  • Local laws & customs
  • Entry requirements (visa / passport)
  • Travel advice help and support

Please be aware that your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements.

You can visit the Foreign & Commonwealth Office’s foreign travel advice (including health & entry requirements) for each country by clicking FCDO advice – all countries

We always recommend that our clients seek advice on recommended vaccinations and precautions from a health professional – either a GP or a practise nurse, a pharmacist or a travel health clinic – ideally at least 8 weeks prior to departure.  If you have a particular health concern or take regular medicines, it is particularly important that you consult a health professional in advance of your trip and ensure you have adequate supplies to cover the duration of your tour.

Further travel health advice can be found by clicking Travel Health by Country or Fit for Travel advice

Please note that travel advice can change and so you should check the websites provided regularly up until you travel.

It is important that every person travelling is covered by travel insurance from the time of making a booking.  This protects each person against the need to cancel the holiday/tour in certain circumstances and to provide assistance if they’re injured or ill at their destination.

In light of the Covid 19 pandemic we suggest that insurance policies are checked carefully (or check with your insurer), to ensure that cover is provided in the case of subsequent waves, a local lockdown or your personal requirement to cancel due to a Covid 19 related reason.

Please read your policy details carefully and take them with you on your trip.

It is the responsibility of the lead booker of the group to ensure that everyone on their booking has suitable travel insurance. Each individual must ensure they have purchased insurance cover and that it is suitable and adequate for their needs.

STF TRAVEL SURE INSURANCE – FOR SCHOOLS & YOUTH GROUPS

We are pleased that we are part of the Schools Travel Forum (STF) and because of this are able to extend to our schools and youth groups a comprehensive travel insurance policy, developed by ABTA and the STF with AXA Insurance.

When your register for any of our services, you may provide us with:

  • Your personal details, including your address, email address, phone number and date of birth.
  • Your passport details, which we may have to pass on to third parties, such as airlines or hotels.
  • Your payment and/or bank account details, where you have provided these for booking purposes.
  • Your marketing preferences, including any consents you have given us.

How we use this information about you

We collect information about you to process your booking / reservation, manage your account and, if you agree, to email you about other products and services we think may be of interest to you.

What information we share with third parties and the legal basis for this use

To provide products or services requested by you, we may share personal data with suppliers of your travel arrangements, including airlines, hotels and transport companies.

We also work with carefully selected suppliers that carry out certain functions on our behalf. For example, companies that help us with IT services, storing and combining data, marketing, advertising campaign, market research, processing payments and delivering products and services.

When we share personal data with other organisations we require them to keep it safe, and they must not use your personal data for their own marketing purposes.

We only share the minimum personal data that enable our suppliers and retail partners to provide their services to you and us.

So that you can travel, it may be mandatory (as required by government authorities at the point(s) of departure and/or destination) to disclose and process your personal data for immigration, border control, security and anti-terrorism purposes, or any other purposes which they determine appropriate.

Some countries will only permit travel if you provide your advance passenger data (for example Caricom API Data and US Secure Flight Data). These requirements may differ depending on your destination and you are advised to check. Even if not mandatory, we may assist where appropriate.

Withdrawing consent or otherwise objecting to direct marketing

Wherever we rely on your consent, you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your data for other purposes, such as those set out above.

You have an absolute right to opt-out of direct marketing, or profiling we carry out for direct marketing, at any time. You can do this by following the instructions in the communication where this is an electronic message, or by contacting us using the details set out below.

How long we retain your data

We will retain your personal data for only as long as it is necessary for the uses set out in this Privacy Notice and/or to meet legal and regulatory requirements. After this period, we will securely erase personal data. If data is needed after this period for analytical, historical or other legitimate business purposes, we will take appropriate measures to anonymise this data.
