Some UK Shortlists Travel pages include Trip.com partner search links for hotels, domestic flights, trains, attraction tickets, airport transfers or car rentals. UK Shortlists may earn a commission if you book after clicking.

Those links are booking-search steps, not recommendations that a specific price, room, ticket, train, transfer, vehicle or provider term is currently available.

What to check before paying

  • Check the exact provider, route, dates and passenger details.
  • Check taxes, fees, baggage, deposits, extras and cancellation wording.
  • Check whether the page is showing a category search, not a UK Shortlists-ranked result.
  • Check current provider terms again before confirming payment.

What UK Shortlists does not claim

UK Shortlists does not claim live prices, availability, savings, ratings, reviews, safety outcomes, transfer times, driver quality, visa eligibility, refund certainty or booking outcomes.

UK Shortlists also does not claim that Trip.com endorses the site or that UK Shortlists has stayed at, inspected, booked or tested the travel options shown on provider pages.
