Holiday extras

We really do want you to get the very best out of any holiday that you book with Hays Travel. Our travel team can book all the extra touches for you that turn an ordinary holiday into a special, stress-free experience.

Hays Travel can offer the following range of travel options to prepare you for that perfect holiday:

Airport Parking and Car Hire – pre-reserving these can save you both money and time.

Foreign Currency - make your holiday money go further – we have great deals on all your foreign currency needs.

Airport Lounge - relax in style before your flight, let us book you into an Airport Lounge.

Travel Insurance - essential for any holiday – we can offer great prices on Travel Insurance.

Flight Preparation – we can pre-book all your in-flight needs, from pre-booked seats to meals, before you fly.

If you’re travelling with family or as part of a group it can often be cheaper to park your car at the airport than consider other transport options. We can offer you the best prices on the following Airport Parking options:

Secured Airport Parking – You can park on the airport or close to the airport, with transfers to and from the car parks to the terminal included in the price.

Meet and Greet Airport Parking – Your driver will meet you at the terminal and then park your car for you. He will drop your car back at the terminal ready for you to drive away on your return to the UK.

Airport Hotels with Parking – This option includes an overnight hotel stay with parking for the duration of your holiday.

Booking into an airport hotel, takes the stress out of getting to the airport in time for your flight. Following a relaxing night’s sleep and hearty breakfast, you can take the short journey to the airport terminal, a few minutes away, at your leisure. Some hotels include free parking for your car, for up to 15 days, in the cost of your stay.

What better way to explore your holiday destination than by car? We can pre-reserve your Car Hire in the UK at an excellent price and have your car available for collection as you step off the plane - you can be halfway to your accommodation before the regular transfer coaches have left the terminal! Car hire for a group can be cheaper than paying for individual airport transfers and you then have the freedom of transport for the duration of your holiday.

Airport lounges provide a quiet haven to relax, away from the hustle and bustle of the terminal. Chill out for up to 3 hours in comfortable seating, with unlimited complimentary drinks and snacks to enjoy. Sit back and read the day’s newspapers, keep up to date with online facilities or enjoy television or other entertainment choices. Most lounges accept older children with plenty of games facilties to keep them entertained.

Travel Insurance is essential, don’t leave home without it – we can offer great prices for both Single Trip and Annual Travel Insurance for travel in the UK, Europe and Worldwide. Prices from only £20pp for a 7-day European policy.

We can arrange the following in-flight services for you: Pre-book your seats and in-flight meals. For added luxury book extra-legroom seats or if you're taking a long-haul flight, upgrade to Premium Seats. If you're celebrating on-board, we can also help you start your journey with some champagne. Avoid unexpected charges at the check-in desk by pre-booking extra baggage. And don't forget to book space for your golf clubs, skis or surf-board.
