2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).
Revenue represents amounts receivable from the sales of flights and other travel related services supplied to customers net of Value Added Tax. The total revenue of the Company for the year has been derived from it's principal activity wholly undertaken in the United Kingdom. Income is recognised on a booking date basis.

|
Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in pound sterling, which is the Company's functional
currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest pound, unless otherwise indicated.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the Statement of Comprehensive Income within 'finance income or costs'. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in profit or loss within 'other operating income'.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
Operating leases: the Company as lessee
|
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the lessee's benefit from the use of the leased asset.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of
financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other
third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.
|
Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are recognised to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These estimates include depreciation of tangible fixed assets, and amortisation of intangible fixed assets.
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 1 (2023 - 1).

Contingent liabilities and Regulatory Requirements
|
The company currently holds an Air Travel Organisers' License (ATOL) issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and is an accredited agent of the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
In order to offer air inclusive package holidays, the company requires the annual renewal by the CAA of its ATOL licence. The CAA grants this license on the basis of meeting agreed financial criteria and renews this in September (effective 1st October) each year. The company has complied with these requirements in previous years. The directors see no reason why the ATOL license will not be renewed in September 2024 on substantially the same terms and conditions as currently agreed with the CAA.
The company complies with the financial criteria requirements of IATA.
As at 31 March 2024 there were no material contingent liabilities.
