Bayan Blue Ltd. does not hold an Air tour Operators License (ATOL) and, as such, is unable to arrange flights for our guests.
We recommend Satellite Travel (www.satellitetravel.co.uk, +44 (0) 208 24 33 666), ATOL license holder 0488, to help arrange flights.

We arrange transfer from Preveza airport, as well as other arrival destinations on request. For more information on where to find flights, please see our Flights and Transfers page.
Many of our guests pick up a pre-booked hire car at the airport and, with our detailed instructions, drive themselves to their villa. In this case, a transfer is not required. More information is available on our Car Hire page.
You can get into your villa from 1200 onwards on the day of arrival.
Villas usually have to be vacated by 0900 on the day of departure. This allows time for it to be prepared for the next guests.
Mains electricity in Greece is 220v 50Hz, the same as in the UK. Sockets are the round two-pin European variety, so you will need to bring a travel adaptor to plug UK electrical equipment in.
Mobile coverage on Lefkas is good. The local mobile operators are Vodafone, Cosmote and Wind. As long as you have a roaming agreement with your mobile phone supplier, you should be able to use your phone in Greece.
Please note that we cannot guarantee mobile phone reception in all locations.
Payments to Bayan Blue can be made by cheque or bank transfer. We ask for 30% of the total price upon booking and the balance of the cost 10 weeks before commencing your holiday.
 | Bayan Blue is fully bonded by Travel and General Insurance Plc, under their Total Payment Protection (topp) scheme. This will protect your money in the unlikely event of our financial failure. For more information, see our Bonding page. |
As a rough guide, dining out in Greece will cost around £12pp for two courses and local wine in a village taverna. Ordering seafood and imported wines will increase the cost of a meal.
Most of the restaurants still believe that cash is king and credit cards are still not widely accepted. We would suggest bringing a reasonable amount of local currency with you. Cash machines are available in the larger towns - for example Lefkas Town, Nidri and Vassiliki and accept all the usual plastic.
