ABOUT PLANET WINDSURF
About Us
Planet Windsurf is one of the most established specialist windsurf holiday companies in Europe, organising fully inclusive windsurf holidays to the worlds very best windsurf locations since 1997. Planet Windsurf is a trading name of Planet Travel Ltd, a water sports specialist travel company, also offering Kitesurf Holidays (Planet Kitesurf Holidays), Diving Holidays (Planet Dive Holidays) and, since 2016, Wingfoiling Holidays (Planet Wingfoil Holidays). New for 2024 we also have an innovative online booking website for Ocean Sports Holidays
Our success has come from a combination of a very high level of travel expertise and a passion for the sport. This is backed up by a highly proactive ethos within the company; we are constantly striving to do better through constant product development and research along with heavy investment in the latest travel IT systems to ensure that we can provide the fastest and most competitive responses to our clients' requests.
Planet Windsurf is more than just a windsurf travel company; we specialise in luxury tailor-made tours worldwide. We believe that the holiday experience can be made so much more memorable and enjoyable by combining your world-class windsurfing beach resort with the rich cultural experience that your chosen country has to offer.
Holiday financial and ATOL protection
All our holidays, with flights, are covered by ATOL and TTA, and our holidays that do not include flights are still covered by our TTA protection, which means that you are 100% financially protected when you book your holiday with us. So what does that mean exactly for your holiday financial protection?
Planet Windsurf is part of Planet Travel Ltd, we have ATOL (Air Travel Organiser’s License) bonding and our ATOL number is T7314. By law, every UK travel company which sells air holidays and flights in the UK is required to hold an ATOL. If, for any reason, a travel company with an ATOL ceases trading, the ATOL scheme protects customers who had booked holidays with that firm. It ensures they do not get stranded abroad or lose money. The scheme is designed to reassure consumers that their money is safe and will provide assistance in the event of a travel company failure.
ATOL protection does not apply to holidays and travel services which exclude flights, for which our membership of the Travel Trust Association affords protection.
Planet Windsurf has been a TTA (Travel Trust Association) member since October 2001. Every TTA member deposits your money into the Trust Account; this happens directly following your booking. A Trust Account is a bank account designated to hold the customer’s money. Your money remains in the Trust Account and is supervised by an appointed trustee, a banker, a chartered or certified accountant or a solicitor. The Travel Trust Association members and the trustee must authorise payments from the trust account. In addition to being held in trust, you also have a financial guarantee from the Travel Trust Association.
