⚠️ Latest Travel Updates

If you’re travelling to or through Hong Kong, there are some important rules to be aware of before you pack. E-cigarettes, heated tobacco products and related devices are strictly prohibited from being brought into Hong Kong — even in personal luggage.

From 30 April 2026, it will also be illegal to possess these items in public places, whether you’re using them or not. Offences can carry serious penalties, including fines and imprisonment, although travellers transiting without passing through immigration are exempt.

Hong Kong also has very strict drug laws, and CBD (cannabidiol) is classified as a dangerous drug. This means all cannabis-related products — including oils, creams, capsules and food items — are illegal. In addition, there are limits on how much powdered baby formula you can take out of Hong Kong, with fines or up to two years’ imprisonment for breaking the rules. It’s always worth double-checking what you’re carrying to avoid any issues during your trip.

💡Top Travel Tip

✈️ Travel Tip — If the FCDO Changes Travel Advice Before You Fly

If the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) changes the travel advice for your destination before departure, don’t panic — but do act quickly.

First, check the exact wording of the advice. There’s a big difference between “exercise increased caution” and “advise against all travel”.

If the advice changes to “against all travel” or “against all but essential travel”, most travel insurance policies will no longer cover the trip — but airlines and package providers will usually offer changes, credit, or refunds.

Next, contact your airline, tour operator, or booking provider to see what options are available. Many will offer free changes when official government advice changes.

Finally, check your travel insurance policy wording. If the trip becomes non-covered after booking, your insurer may still guide you on what your options are.

💡 Tip: Always check FCDO advice a few days before travel, not just when booking.

✨ Seasonal Spotlight

💡 All prices are based on example dates and departure airports. Other airports, room status and travel dates are available through the booking link, but final prices may vary.

Dreaming of warm beaches, golden light and a break from the winter chill? These sunshine escapes bring the heat back into your travel plans — from quick hops to long-haul paradise and bucket-list brilliance.

Our Seasonal Spotlight is refreshed regularly to reflect the best winter sun destinations throughout the year.

Marrakech, Morocco

Escape to sun-warmed riads, palm-lined courtyards, and the buzz of ancient souks on the edge of the desert. A calm winter sun escape with bright days and warm air.

🕒 Flight time: approx. 3h 30m from the UK
🌡️ Average temps: Oct 28°C • Nov 24°C • Dec 22°C • Jan 20°C • Feb 22°C • Mar 24°C • Apr 26°C

✈️ Airport: Marrakech Menara (RAK) – Find Flights
🚖 Transfers: It’s always worth pre-booking airport transfers — Marrakech Airport to the Medina or Hivernage takes around 15–25 mins, but navigating on arrival can be busy and confusing.

🌺 Seminyak, Bali

Tropical sunsets, laid-back beach cafés and warm island breezes — a dreamy escape from winter. Think golden shorelines, slow mornings by the pool and warm evenings filled with Bali’s famous charm.
