Hi was just hoping for a bit of guidance do we need to do anything regarding travel Visa  or do you do it all for us.  I travel 24th September  and getting really excited just read on here about the travel plugs it’s ace what information we can pick up thank you 

Anita

Anita You definately need a ETA ( Electronic Travel Autorisation) to enter Canada . You cannot get into the country without it but I would have thought Just You would  have told you this ?? I would definately check with them.

Anita,

You apply for ESTA online at least two weeks before the departure. It is very easy, simple and quick.

I am going on 6th September.

Sorry, but Andy and Dyuti are incorrect about applying for an ESTA. Many people mix up the Canadian eTA with the American ESTA which, considering the names, is not surprising. The ESTA is for a visit to the USA only (valid for 2 years), the eTA for a visit to Canada. An American ESTA will NOT gain you entry into Canada.

Cheers

The ESTA IS NOT the same as the ETA for Canada . You can apply for it on line but make sure you use the official  Canada. Gov travel advice . It explains it there . Also make sure you use the official website as there are a lot of scam sites Anita .

Kind regards

I hope you enjoyed your recent Just You holiday.

Just You actually goes much further in offering travel advice than many other travel companies,

On every destination page and on the main home page we have an online portal which gives all of the information you will require in terms of visa requirements, health requirements and other guidance. It is a really useful tool that is constantly updated and gives links to country websites where you can find the latest information.

https://www.justyou.co.uk/information/travel-requirements-visa-service/ 

Kind regards

Matt

In the specific case of Canada there is a link under the heading ‘visa requirements’ to apply for the eTA, but unfortunately some incorrect advice given by people in response to questions asked on the forum has perhaps caused a little confusion.

But all in all, the information supplied by JY under the appropriate ‘travel and visa requirements’ section is very clear and detailed and I commend them on this.

Mike

Also anybody else going on the same trip ? 

Thanks x

Hi ? well getting really excited I am off to Canada on September 24 th  just hoping does anyone  know about mobile phones how best to use them and is it expensive to use mine whilst I am there .

Also anybody else going on the same trip ? 

Thanks x

Hi . I am flying to Toronto on September 24th from Heathrow at 1705. Checking back on your posts I see you are going on the Rocky Mountaineer trip but I am on Canada and New England in the Fall. I believe that mobile phone charges abroad depend on which provider you are with.

I have obtained my ETA  for entry,have a Covid pass and now have to sort out the arriveCAN app to submit the info.I understand that I do not need an ESTA for entry to the USA as entry will be via a land crossing not air.

Have a good time.

As for mobile phones, most US providers like AT&T let you use your phone there for a small daily fee. Usually cheaper to get a local Canadian SIM though.
