Anybody know the 'grace period' for returning late at APH, Slip End Luton Airport?
As far as I can make out, it's simply 'up to midnight'... which is pretty useless for flights scheduled to land, say. 10pm.

eDreams Prime – recurring charges I don’t recall signing up for. Anyone else?
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to hear from others who may have had similar issues with eDreams Prime. I recently discovered that I’ve been charged annually since 2023 for an eDreams Prime membership. I genuinely do not recall knowingly signing up to this subscription. When I logged into my eDreams account, the information…

Warning: TravelFX is NOT FCA Authorised – TravelMoneyMax listing appears misleading
I want to flag something important about TravelFX that I think other users should be aware of before using them. I originally chose TravelFX because they appear on the TravelMoneyMax comparison tool and are shown as: That label was a major factor in my decision, as it suggests regulatory oversight and consumer protection.…

TUI changed my flight times
We should be flying to Turkey in June 2026 to the same hotel we stayed at last year. A couple of weeks ago, TUI contacted us to say they were changing our return flight time from 4:55pm to 9:35am which I wasn't too concerned about as we just want to get home on our return day. However, on Friday, I had another email from…

Saga holiday insurance
I have booked my first saga holiday with insurance. I rang to inform them I had a potential new condition having been referred to a consultant for a foot injury. They said the insurance would be cancelled if there was no diagnosis yet. Surely that’s what I took insurance out for - unexpected events? Is this right?

Love Holidays - stressed!
My 18 year son and friends booked a holiday to Zante for June 2026. The bulk of the group booked earlier than my son and 3 friends who booked in October. They paid a deposit of £30. Two of my son’s group can’t afford it now and pulled out. However, as my son is the lead on the booking, he’s now liable for paying their…

M&S dumps travel insurance
Received a letter this morning. M&S is stopping the travel insurance associated with it's mastercard credit card. There is currently a £30 monthly fee and no mention of this being reduced! I am sure that TI must have made up the bulk of their fees. I can't imagine that 'free' coffee vouchers cost them that much. One for…

Travel Insurance
Martin Lewis states that customers should always take out travel insurance as soon as they book a holiday. I have booked a holiday for my wife my daughter and my grandchildren. Should it be me that books the insurance straight away as I have paid for it or should my daughter also book it for herself and my grandchildren?

Booking.com - incompetent rip-off. Start of holiday spoilt.
Short-story. Booked hotel and car rental through them for 1 week in Tenerife. What a disaster unfolded! Can't see any value in booking through them. Will go direct to hotel/supplier in future after doing research on Booking.com site. Strongly recommend that you don't book through them; just use them for research and…
