ThomasCook collapse - 150,000 Brits face holiday rescue chaos

AROUND 150,000 Brits' holidays are in turmoil after the travel giant collapsed - and the rescue mission could take up to a fortnight.

The brief statement added: "A dedicated support service is being provided by The Civil Aviation Authority to assist customers overseas and those in the UK with future bookings."for more information - although the site has crashed several times. Those travelling on "flight only" breaks would normally be expected to find and pay for their own return flights.

Mike Churcher, 63, who is currently on a Thomas Cook package holiday with his wife and 22-year-old son at the Royal Wings hotel in Antalya, Turkey, said he feared being thrown out of his hotel. A Thomas Cook plane was “seized” at Manchester Airport with a “Notice of Detention of Aircraft” for non-payment of airport charges.
