jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Kosmar/XL have gone bust, If you have booked direct then you wont be going on holiday, If you have paid cash/chq then you will proberbly lose your money, If you have paid with a credit card or booked with a travel agent then you should get a refund. If you are already on holiday having booked with a travel agent then you should get back OK I work at Gatwick airport and flight prices are going through the roof, a single to Spain is around £800 I hope no-one has been affected by this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 15552 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Latest in a long line I fear. Can only really see the big national airlines and Ryanair/EasyJet coming out of this one relatively unscathed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I wouldn't say that like. They're alright for package holidays though. I don't know how people can stand going on package holidays though, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 lots more airlines are in the same boat.......... one thing that interested me was that if you'd booked over the net you weren't covered by ATOLL - you have to try and get the cash back from your credit card company....................

tinofbeans 91 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 golden rule on this is use a credit card. it generally costs more but the card company can reclaim your money if you get fucked over like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an interesting and expensive time with only a couple of airlines and looking like only a couple of banks the way things are going.
