Frequently Asked Questions Tips and information about your Private Air Tour holiday with APT. Can I request where I sit on the plane? To give everyone a chance at a window seat we will have a seat rotation policy in place. Where there are highlights to be seen by air, the captain will undertake a special flight path so both sides of the plane will get the view. How much luggage can I bring? One bag checked luggage at 20kg, plus one carry on. No additional luggage will be able to be taken due to aircraft limits. Can I travel alone? Of course! Many of our passengers are solo travellers, though there is a limited number of solo rooms available on each trip. What mobility is required? A good level of health and fitness is required to participate on an APT holiday. You will be required to embark and disembark the aircraft and coaches unaided, climb stairs and walk on uneven terrain. We recommend being able to walk unaided for a minimum of a kilometre. If there are any mobility issues you will be required to complete an APT Health and Fitness Mobility Form, please speak to your booking agent regarding this. Will I need travel insurance? Travel insurance must be arranged prior to departure to ensure that you are covered for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise on tour (including cancellations, fees, medical and curtailment expenses, loss of luggage etc). I have special dietary requirements, can this be catered for? All dietary requests will be taken into consideration and fulfilled where possible. The wide selection of menus and choice of dishes available will help in meeting special dietary requests. Please advise your booking agent as soon as possible of any dietary requests.
