Your direct debit payments will be arranged so that the balance is paid 6 weeks before you go on holiday. If you cancel the direct debit at any time you will need to pay the balance due 12 weeks before you travel. Skytours holidays are available on TUI website.

If you make changes to your booking our standard amendment fees will apply and the following scenarios could happen;

Increase holiday cost– If there are any fees due immediately, such as the amendment fee, you will need to pay them at the point the amendment is made. Any other additional costs which are due to be paid at the final balance date will be added to your Direct Debit schedule and the monthly payments will be recalculated.
Reduced holiday cost– Your Direct Debit schedule will be updated and the monthly payments will reduce to reflect the new balance.
Later departure date– If you move your holiday to a later date then your Direct Debit will still be valid and the monthly payments will recalculate.
Closer departure date– If you move your holiday to a closer date, then your Direct Debit might not be valid and you may be required to pay the full balance of the holiday, dependent on how far away the new departure date is.
