Designer Travel Customer Update
At Designer Travel, caring for our customers and ensuring your safety is always at the heart of everything we do.
We know the current situation in the Middle East is worrying and our thoughts are with everyone affected. Please rest assured that we are monitoring developments very closely and are following the latest guidance from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office.
If your holiday is due to take place in a destination where the FCDO advises against all but essential travel, our team will contact you directly. We are working through affected bookings in departure date order, ensuring that everyone receives clear and timely information.
If your travel plans are not impacted by the current advice, your booking will continue under normal terms and conditions. Should anything change, we will reach out to you immediately.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. We will continue to keep you updated as new information becomes available, and as always we are here to support you every step of the way.
