Travel documents

Passports, visas, health cards and more.

Our travel experts can help you to put together all the documents you need for your trip.

You may find it helpful to have paper copies of your documents in case your phone/device has a problem/runs out of battery and they can also make it easier if you are travelling as a group.


Travel Insurance



We recommend you take out comprehensive travel insurance as soon as you book your holiday. We can help get you covered, from insuring your best camera to making sure you’re looked after if your holiday is affected by Covid-19.

Always check your policy details and make sure all your specific needs are covered to ensure peace of mind and maximum enjoyment.

We are here to help find you the insurance you need.

Travel vaccines and antimalarials

If you've booked a break outside of the UK, you might need to be vaccinated or take anti-malarial medication to help protect you against some serious diseases found in other parts of the world.

We recommend you talk to your local participating pharmacy at least 6 to 8 weeks before you're due to travel as some vaccinations require more than one injection over a few weeks.

Find out what vaccines or health services you might need and where to get them here.


Airport hotels and parking

Early flight or late arrival back? Take the stress out of travelling and book an airport hotel to make it easy. We can arrange accommodation to suit every budget.

Booking parking in advance reduces hassle on the day and often saves cash – put what you save towards an extra treat on your break.

Plus, if you’re a Lincolnshire Co-op dividend card holder you’ll receive cashback on your booking.


Executive lounges


Make the most of the time feel like a VIP!

Relax, avoid the crowds and book a lounge pass at your chosen airport.

Often offering services like comfy seating, free WiFi, drinks, food and snacks, a lounge means your holiday starts much sooner.


Travel money

Wherever you’re traveling, we can offer great commission-free deals on currency. Just pop into your local branch and ask for today’s rates.

If you’re a Lincolnshire Co-op member, you can also use your cashback and cashback bonus to buy currency. That’s a couple of ice creams on us.

We buy back your leftover currency too!


Car hire

If you want to explore your holiday destination or travel independently from the airport, hiring a car might be on your ‘to-do’ list.

It’s worth booking in advance to secure the best deals and choice of vehicles. It will also save you valuable time while you’re away – giving you back an extra hour on the beach, in the pool or watching the world go by.

Remember to check your driving licence is in date and that in some countries, you may need an international driving permit (IDP).


Attractions and experiences

Don’t miss the must-see sights or once-in-a-lifetime experiences when you’re away.

We work with different specialists to pre-book a range of excursions and experiences so all you need to worry about when you’re on holiday is enjoying them.

Whether you’d like to tour ancient Mayan sites in Mexico, visit iconic football grounds in Spain or seek thrills and spills at a Florida theme park, we can help.


Don't forget!


There are a few other things we think its important to be aware of before setting off.

We recommend adding these to your to-do list.
