What's peoples thoughts on paying for trips booked for next year?
Just been asked to pay the deposit on a trip I've got booked.

I would be very cautious after losing a couple of trips this year .
Managed to move one to March 2022 but the other one was lost altogether.

See what their policy is with moving / cancelling / refunding trips .
Good luck

I'm booked on an angling lines venue for July, hopefully it will be OK but if not they were excellent with changing dates this year so would hope they'd be the same next year if this craps still going on 🤞

We were originally booked on the farm lake for Sept, asked to move it to 7th Nov, obviously we couldn't make that date either... Have now moved it to Sept 2021, so much appreciated by us to the farm lake for letting us do this.
Our group has not lost any money 😊...

I lost €300 this year. I'm expecting an invoice for 50% of the 2021 fee any day now for a trip in May. I'm going to have to pay otherwise I lose my annual repeat slot on a great lake.

I had a good annual holiday policy via Zurich but they rejected my claim, saying it was an unforseen catastrophe. I'd paid £150 for 2 for an upgraded annual policy last October well before Covid. *******s

My trip this year was obviously cancelled, but the lake owner concerned just moved my booking to the corresponding week next year. Fingers crossed it will go ahead. God knows what will happen should it be cancelled again.

BullyLFC is that Olivier's Farm Lake? You should check the booking because he was on Facebook saying he was giving up the lake for various reasons.

Lost a week this year on Goncourt Woodslake but they were amazing and moved me to the end of Aug 2021. With this place being so busy, I was amazed I got a 2021 week at all! Fabulous service and fingers crossed all this craziness will have abated by then. We can only hope!
