Double the Financial Protection

We take your financial protection extremely seriously. RouteTrip USA have adopted a belt-and-braces approach to protect your money twice. We are full ATOL Licence holders (#11486) and from the moment you pay your deposit and secure your trip, your entire flight inclusive holiday package will be fully protected.

We are also members of Protected Trust Services (PTS) who provide industry leading and fully compliant trust account services to the travel industry which ringfences clients monies for all flight inclusive packages sold by RouteTrip USA as an additional layer of financial protection.

In addition, through our arrangement with PTS we further protect your money in compliance with the UK The Package Travel, Package Tours Regulations 1992. 

Any packages booked prior to 1st April 2021 will be protected by alternative arrangements.

When you book any flight or flight inclusive package with RouteTrip USA, you will be financially protected from the moment you pay a deposit.

All the flights and flight-inclusive holidays on this website are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. When you pay you will be supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. Please see our booking conditions for further information or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLcertificate 

When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme.

If the holiday we have booked for you does not include flight, you will still enjoy full financial protection
