What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files generated by the websites you visit, which allow them to store data that may be useful later on. This data helps to retain your information between pages, as well as analyse how you interact with the site.

Cookies are secure; they can only store information that is made available by the browser, information that the user has previously entered into the browser or that is included in page requests. They cannot execute code or be used to access your computer. If a website encrypts information contained in a cookie, only that website can read that information.

There are two different types of cookies with different uses and contents: temporary and persistent.
Temporary cookies contain information that is used within your browsing session. These cookies are automatically erased when you close your browser. Nothing is retained on your computer once your browsing is complete.

Persistent cookies are used to store information that is used between visits. This data allows websites to recognize you as a returning customer and adapt accordingly. Persistent cookies have a long-term value defined by the site, which can range from a few minutes to several years.

Why use cookies?

Cookies are used by the site to keep information about your session while you browse the site, retain details of your reservation, and check if you are logged in. They are used to display products relevant to your trip.

Web analytics cookies, from our partners at Google, allow us to track customer interaction throughout the site. This provides us with valuable insights that enable us to improve the site and the products and services we offer.
