Shearings, which was relaunched last year after its brand was snapped up by fellow escorted tours specialist Leger Holidays, said moving to a trust account regime meant client money would be held in an independently operated account until the holiday has been completed.
The operator, which had previously been bonded through Abta, said it could now offer financial protection to customers across all products including self-drive and gift vouchers, which had not been previously covered.
