Accessibility statement
For this website. Target WCAG 2.2 AA, self-assessed, partially conformant — with the known gaps named.
Montero sells accessible travel. A website that is hard to use would undercut everything else on it, so this statement is more detailed than most and it names what does not work.
Target. WCAG 2.2 level AA. Status: self-assessed, partially conformant — the known shortfalls are listed below. Last reviewed: November 2026.
What has been done
All content is in the server-rendered HTML. Nothing you need is drawn by JavaScript.
Every interactive control is reachable and operable by keyboard, with a visible focus outline that meets the 2.2 focus-appearance criterion.
Text and interface colour pairings are checked by a script on every build; the build fails if any pairing drops below the AA threshold.
Every image carries alt text, or an empty alt where it is decorative. Alt text describes the photograph rather than claiming it shows our own trips.
Headings are in order, landmarks are labelled, and every page has one h1.
Forms have visible labels tied by for and id, error messages in text next to the field, and an error summary that takes focus.
Motion respects prefers-reduced-motion, and no animation is required to understand anything.
Tables that scroll sideways are focusable regions with accessible names, so a keyboard user can scroll them.
Changes made by script — filtering, saving, currency, the planner's steps — are announced to a polite live region rather than happening silently.
The reading-guide, text-size and motion controls in the access dock persist on this device.
What does not work yet
Listed because an accessibility statement that claims full conformance is almost always wrong.
No testing with real screen readers. The audit script is structural. NVDA, JAWS and VoiceOver have not been used on these pages. This is the largest gap on the list.
No testing with disabled testers. Nobody who relies on assistive technology has used this site and reported back. This outranks everything else here.
No independent audit. Self-assessment is not verification, and we have not commissioned one.
Several photographs are decorative only. Where an image carries information we describe it in text as well; a few long-form images would benefit from fuller descriptions than their alt text gives.
The schematic region map is keyboard-operable and has a text equivalent beside it, but it has not been tested with a screen reader and should not be relied on alone.
Saving journeys and switching currency require JavaScript. Both are hidden rather than shown as dead controls when it is unavailable, which is the right fallback and still a limitation.
No formal conformance claim. “Partially conformant” is the honest label until the three gaps above are closed.
Telling us something is wrong
If any part of this site stops you doing something, we want to know, and we will tell you what we are going to do about it and when. A barrier on an accessible-travel site is a product defect rather than a complaint.
Write to us through the contact page, or ask for a text-only reply if that suits you better. subject to confirmation: a monitored accessibility email address and a response commitment.
