Why Using an IAA Licensed Travel Agent Matters

When you book with Brightsun Travel, a licensed and regulated travel company, you’re choosing protection and peace of mind. Licensed agents are overseen by the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA), which ensures that your money is secure and protected if something goes wrong. This means that your payments and travel arrangements are financially safeguarded at all times, giving you complete confidence whenever you plan a trip.


How to Check a Licence

Travel agents and tour operators must:

  • Display their licence at their business premises and on their website.
  • Provide their licence details upon request. You can verify any licence on the official register at https://www.iaa.ie/

Brightsun Travel Europe Limited

  • Established reputation for secure and reliable travel services.
  • Licensed & Bonded under IAA license TA0818, meaning your bookings are financially secure.

Booking Outside the EU?

If you book with a company based outside the EU (e.g., UK, USA, Norway), they must provide insolvency protection to the IAA for packages and linked travel arrangements sold in Ireland. If they haven’t, you’re not protected.


Be smart. Be safe. Use a licensed agent or operator.
