Dental tourism, online terms and conditions, visas for cruises
Cut-price dental treatment from eastern Europe, without the need to travel. Plus, should travel agents be obliged to tell us if we need a visa for our holiday? With Peter White.
For years, people have travelled to other countries for cut-price dental treatment. But so-called Dental Tourism has been so successful that dentists from eastern Europe are now setting up in the UK, offering highly competitive rates, without the need for their patients to travel abroad. When shopping online, we are often required to tick a box to indicate that we have read and understood the website's "terms and conditions". But how many of us really understand what we are agreeing to, and what are the risks of just ticking the box and hoping for the best? Should travel agents be obliged to tell us if we need a visa for the holiday they are selling us?
