Travel Agencies for sale in United Kingdom

Reconcile accounts to supplier statements and booking records, separating gross booking value, commission, service fees and overrides. Measure profit after card charges, cancellations, refunds, marketing and adviser time.

Identify whether the company acts as organiser, ATOL holder, franchisee or agent for another holder. Confirm licensing, written agency agreements, bonding, certificates and change-of-control requirements directly with the relevant organisations.

Review organiser and retailer responsibilities for every future departure, cancellation and complaint. Quantify refunds, repatriation exposure, supplier failure risk and financial protection required under the applicable package-travel arrangements.

Match each receipt to supplier deposits, final-payment dates, protection records and client balances. Identify customer money used for overheads, chargeback exposure and bookings where cash held is insufficient to complete travel.

Check GDS access, booking platforms, airline or tour-operator agencies, merchant facilities and credit limits individually. Record deposits, guarantees, administrator access, training and any new approval your entity must obtain.

Analyse departures, commissions, cancellation rights and final-payment dates by month and destination. Separate repeat clients from owner relationships, then stress-test earnings for supplier disruption, seasonal concentration and adviser departures.
