to allow you complete freedom in choosing an itinerary suitable to
you. All itineraries, both within the brochure and on our website,
are designed simply to give you a flavour of what is available and
can be tailor made to suit your preferences. We
can make reservations for international flights up to 11 months in

Accuracy
All information was correct at the time of going to print. We will
endeavour to advise you of any changes that have occurred, at the
time of making your booking or prior to your arrival in the Falklands.
Travel in the Falkland Islands
The Falklands are off the beaten track and whilst suppliers all endeavour
to supply a high degree of service, weather does play a large role
in the smooth running of your programmes. Domestic flights in particular
can, on occasion, be delayed. ITT will do their utmost to ensure the
continued smooth running of your programme but an adaptable attitude
and degree of flexibility may sometimes be required – it is
all part of the adventure!
ITT cannot accept any financial liability for any costs incurred in
having to make changes to your itinerary due to weather or other force
majeur delays. We recommend that you have adequate travel insurance
to cover such incidents.
Special Requests
Accommodations outside of Stanley provide catering on a set menu basis
(as opposed to a la carte) and it is therefore recommended that travellers
advise ITT in advance of any special dietary requirements or food
allergies.
Insurance
We strongly recommend that at the time of making your booking you
supply yourself/your client with travel insurance to cover cancellation
charges, luggage claim, medical expenses, accident and others. Immigration
policy into the Falklands requires that all visitors supply proof
of medical insurance, which includes cover for medical evacuation,
prior to being issued with a Visitors Permit.
