Another Tour Company Goes Bust

It has been announced this morning, that another tour company, Goldtrail, has gone bust. It does seem to happen at least twice a year.

What bannoys me is that a lot of people will not have travel insurance, so they will expect the CAA, i.e. all our taxes, to get them home.

Let’s have aaw which says that you can’t buy a holiday without either insurance or the means to get yourself home, if it all goes bust.  I have insurance, but it didn’t cover my problems in Hong Kong, so I had to fund that myself.

But why should I have to fund people who make no provision? The CAA should publish how much they have had to pay out, over and above any bonds.

Especially, as most this time were to Turkey, which is somewhere I am very cautious of visiting as it is not very coeliac-friendly, unless you stay in five-star hotels.
