Anyone booked with this lot? Very nearly booked a holiday in October but was uneasy with news earlier in the year about them.

Fortunately no. I have been looking to book flights for a holiday in late May and Thomas Cook had the best flight times and price combination but I held off booking as I was concerned about them going bust

There can't have been much to save if the business has been liquidated rather than enter administration.

The money lenders and the TC board are to blame. Between them they have made decisions that are not in the best interests of their income source - you and me! I can't figure why their offerings are priced as low as possible, just so that they can sell more money losing holidays. Wasn't impressed with those who featured in the news bulletins.

They've really stitched up their staff as well, doing this the week before payday, which means everyone got to work for their last month for nothing.

Dejavu time. . . Monarch. A few years ago, had a holiday to Tenerife flying with Monarch, Travel Co I booked with found me new flights on the same dates with only an admin charge. Next year(May), I have a holiday booked to Tenerife, flying with TC. Im hoping the very same Travel Co can do the same. They are ATOL/ABTA. Maybe a should just go back n forth to Alicante, but that's not a holiday. Good thing on my part is I know I will get a full refund, feel for those who wont/cant.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Thomas Cook is a much-loved brand and still doing a lot of business. I am quite happy with the High Street for holidays myself. It is over 150 years old, a couple of months to make a rescue package and return to profitability should not be beyond the financial people. I would be happy my taxes were used to that effect, rather than spend 88 billions on a railway line that may never operate. What about all the distress, all the people losing their jobs?

Doesn't seem viable a a going concern sadly.
