Our Reputation

Charter Travel has built up an enviable reputation that is second to none for having some of the lowest priced airfares; car hire and fly drive packages to Florida and the USA. Our specialist Florida team have an extensive knowledge of the area, and continually endeavour to give the best advice for all aspects of your planned trip. The savings made by our Consultants for each client have become noticeably greater in value and we are constantly recommended as being unbeatable on price. We take care of the negotiating so you don't have to.

Our Team

Our Consultants are widely travelled and between them have visited numerous destinations worldwide; so when we say our staff are fully trained and experienced in seeking out all possible options and alternatives for you, you may be assured that you are in capable hands. We hold weekly training updates and exchange of travel experiences and pricing, this input of shared knowledge enables us to provide you with the very best choice and value for money.

We will not always offer you the easy obvious choice but endeavour to show you the options available to help plan and create the perfect trip and the right price, - "nothing is available" is not something you should ever hear from Charter Travel.

Charter Travel has gone from strength to strength from 1988 when I launched the company. My passion for the travel industry along with the dedication of my staff over the years is, I believe, the secret of its success and rapid growth. We have always prided ourselves in maintaining traditional values to ensure our clients receive a personal service from Charter Travel's expert team of experienced and well-travelled professionals.

We know how important and vital it is to be able to spend quality time with family, friends and loved ones, to receive the best a company can offer and be sure they will go that extra mile for each and every client. This will always be of paramount importance and this is the overriding factor that ensures our success.
