Taking child abroad - child arrangement order

I think I have just read something which would make my life a bit easier.... but need confirmation.

When I divorced my ex I was named as the resident parent in the child arrangement order. Does this mean that I don't need ex's permission to take DS on holiday? I just need to take a copy of the order?

He has been absent for over 4 months now and I really don't want to make contact.

You can take ur child for as long as u want, as long as the court can see that ur not gona live there and return home ( schools, rent, car ect) then it shouldnt be a problem.
