Blunt answers about how to reserve one week here
Including what the office will not do, why nothing here is called a best buy, and who actually takes your money.
- Do I have to start from the house shape?
- No, but every page here is written as though you have read it, so starting anywhere else means more back and forth. The shape takes four minutes to read and it is the vocabulary the rest of the site uses. People who skip it usually come back to it.
- Can I change more than one part?
- Yes, and the book is full of weeks that change two or three. What the office will do is tell you when the parts fight each other. Dropping the car and adding bases at the same time, for instance, usually means a week that costs more and delivers less, and you will be told that before you commit rather than after.
- Is the house shape the least expensive thing you sell?
- No, and nothing on this site is ranked that way. Ten of the thirty changes come in under the house shape and twenty come in above it. The office does not publish a best buy, because which week is worth the money depends entirely on which parts matter to you.
- Do you arrange the flights?
- No. This is an agency and nothing else: it flies nobody and it holds no contract with any carrier. Getting to the country and home again is yours to arrange. Where a scheduled boat or train forms part of a week on the ground, it belongs to the supplier running that week and the page says so.
- Do you handle entry documents or insurance?
- Neither, and not as a favour either. Those are regulated matters and this office is not qualified for them. Ask a specialist, and do it before you fix dates rather than after.
- What if I want a week that is not in the book?
- Describe it as a change to the shape and write in. The thirty in the book are the requests that came back more than once; they are not a menu and they are not a limit. What the office cannot do is quote a week it has never arranged as though it had.
- Do you publish reviews or ratings?
- No, and there is no plan to. Stars, testimonials and awards would all have to be taken on trust, and this office cannot check a single one of them. In their place you get the shape itself, the parts it is made of, and the figure attached to changing each part.
- Who takes my money?
- The company running the week, in its own name, under its own terms. Not a cent moves through this office and nothing about your card is seen or stored here. The office is paid a commission by that supplier afterwards.
- Is the office really in Birmingham?
- Yes, and the address and the telephone number stand at the top of every page on this site. The weeks themselves are in Europe and Japan; the desk that arranges them is in Alabama, which is the ordinary arrangement for an agency and is stated here because people ask.
