Experience the Ultimate Ski Holiday with Complete Financial Peace of Mind!
When it comes to booking your ski holiday, nothing is more important than knowing your money is secure. That’s where the Travel Trust Association (TTA) steps in, offering travellers in the UK unparalleled financial protection. With over 450 members, the TTA is the only travel network dedicated to providing 100% financial security, allowing you to book your holiday with absolute confidence.
Our membership number is: Q9382
So, how does this work? At Alpinium, we’ve undergone a rigorous vetting process to join the TTA. Once we received our membership, a trust bank account was established in partnership with NatWest Bank. This means that when you make a payment, your funds go directly into a secure TTA trustee account—completely separate from Alpinium. We don't have access to these funds until after your holiday is complete, ensuring your money is safe throughout the entire process.
Whether you choose to pay through bank transfer or with a credit card like Visa or Mastercard, rest assured your payments are protected. The funds remain in the TTA trustee account, safeguarded until you return from your ski holiday. In the unlikely event of financial failure, your money is protected and the TTA will step in to help offering you an alternative holiday or a full refund.
Is the TTA better than ABTA (Association of British Travel Agents) ?
....You bet it is!
You might be wondering how TTA compares to other travel organizations like ABTA (Association of British Travel Agents) or ATOL (Air Travel Organisers License). While ABTA requires members to follow a code of practice, it does not guarantee financial protection. Simply being an ABTA member doesn’t mean your money is safe. ATOL, on the other hand, is specific to flight providers and does not apply to all aspects of your holiday. ATOL licenses are issued (and underwritten) by the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority). But check your flight provider’s ATOL number before you book for credibility.
Using a credit card for your payments adds an extra layer of protection. If a supplier cannot deliver the holiday you’ve booked, you’re entitled to a refund from your credit card provider, who can recover the cost from the holiday provider.
SUMMARY – Ski Holidays with 100% Financial Protection
With our TTA membership, we offer you the highest level of financial protection available for your ski holiday. Your payments are securely held in a TTA trustee-controlled bank account until you return, ensuring peace of mind while you hit the slopes. Should anything go awry, simply contact the TTA, and they’ll assist you in finding a suitable alternative or issuing a full refund. Book your dream ski holiday today, knowing that your financial security is our top priority!
