Location of the Azores and flights
Our special partnership with The Flight Centre UK gives you a dedicated agent who knows our holidays and the best fully ATOL protected flights to book to the Azores, giving you an integrated booking experience
The Azores are an archipelago of 9 islands in the middle of the Atlantic – the only territory between America and Europe. Flights are not included in our holidays and you will need to book flights to Ponta Delgada (PDL) for holidays on Sao Miguel Island and Pico (PIX) for holidays on Pico Island.
We understand that some guests prefer the added peace of mind that comes with having their flights included in a package. While we specialise in the Azores and are unable to book flights directly due to the requirements of ATOL certification and associated systems, we’ve partnered with Flight Centre to ensure a seamless travel experience.
Flight Centre, a trusted travel agency, is both ATOL and ABTA protected, offers 24/7 emergency support, and can assist with booking flights, including seat selection, baggage, lounges, and other extras. They also provide expert advice on routes and connections to make your journey as smooth as possible.
When you book your holiday with us and arrange your flights through our travel partner, we work together to provide a seamless service, ensuring your trip feels like a package holiday. If flights are cancelled or delayed, we’ll be notified and will adjust your holiday plans wherever possible to match your new schedule. Should your trip need to be rescheduled, we’ll follow standard package holiday guidelines and move your booking free of charge when possible, with no administration fees. In cases where date changes result in additional costs, these will be passed on without any added fees from us.
Your holiday experience is our top priority, and we will always strive to minimize costs and disruptions while delivering exceptional service. If you’d like to book your flights through our travel partner, simply let us know when making your reservation, and we’ll refer you.
