“Company management and the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being at least the following 12 months from the signing of these financial statements. The Company has been well placed to meet and service the additional volume. The directors consider the Company to be a going concern based upon detailed profit and loss account, balance sheet and cashflow projections drawn up to 31 December 2027. The directors believe they have taken all necessary steps to mitigate the impact of any risks mentioned and potential recession. The Company also enjoys the financial support of its ultimate parent undertaking Inteletravel UK Holdings Limited who have provided the Company's regulator, the CAA, with a parent company guarantee.”
Significant events
- “Disruption risks: The travel industry remains exposed to geopolitical instability, which can significantly disrupt demand, operational capacity, and customer confidence at short notice. During 2026, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East are presenting notable challenges for the business, affecting booking patterns, flight availability, and customer sentiment across affected regions and related itineraries. As with all geopolitical events, the full magnitude and duration of the associated impact is difficult to predict and is subject to rapid change depending on how circumstances develop. The Company continues to monitor the geopolitical landscape closely and maintains contingency measures designed to mitigate these risks where possible including proactive customer communications, flexible booking policies, and the ongoing review of affected itineraries and supplier arrangements.”
