You will need to do this by 23:59 on Wednesday 31 July 2024. There will be no further opportunities to select these add-on options later down the line, so please make sure that you think about this carefully.
The updated Payment Guide below shows when the payments for all three options will be required alongside your core fee payments.
If you are looking to travel with the contingent, as part of the Data Splash we will ask you to supply us with some data including the name as shown on your passport, and your preferred UK airport for departure/return. If your passport is due to expire before travelling, please provide us with the information as this will be helpful in the interim until your new passport arrives.
