Hello all vflyers

A quick question. I had an email from virgin holidays saying my final balance needs to be cleared by 11th June and my flights not until September? I thought it was usually 8 week prior or has this changed?

I have around half still to pay as I thought it was 8 weeks before but I'll have to sort I soon!
Thanks in advance

I don't know if it changed but the VH T&Cs say 12 weeks

6 Paying for your holiday

In order to confirm your chosen arrangements, you must pay a non-refundable deposit, which may be higher than the standard deposit to secure specific types of airline tickets, tours, cruises etc, and this will be confirmed to you at time of booking. (If booking within 12 weeks of departure full payment will be required by credit card or debit card.) The balance of the cost of your arrangements (including any surcharge where applicable) is due not less than 12 weeks prior to departure. If we do not receive this balance in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you in which case the cancellation charges set out in clause 9 will become payable.
