Thomas Cook goes bankrupt, initiates insolvency proceedings

[Ulken]

Of course, most people didn't realize that they were going bankrupt in advance, you have to say that it was very surprising.

[Glumbi]

I say yes, nobody could have guessed that beforehand.

[MaryP]

I was also very shocked, I have often flown with individual tour operators and I always felt that I was in good hands.

[Glumbi]

Can I confirm that Mary was always good here with us.

It wasn't just the airline that was behind it, but the whole company, including hotels, package tours, etc. Some of the guests were thrown out of the hotel's doors because the organizers hadn't transferred the money for months.

[Glumbi]

We ourselves were often away with Neckermann, also in the smartline hotels, which are also part of it. My parents' next trip actually starts on January 12.01.20th, 31.12.19 to Gran Canaria, booked with Neckermann Reisen, currently still open whether that will take place or not. All trips are canceled until December XNUMXst, XNUMX, there is still hope that they will go away.. You can't book the stupid new thing either because if the trip can take place, you have two at the same time..

[Ulken]

Annoying, I would still book again, better that way than not getting away at all in the end.

[Glumbi]

Well it's all a question of money or attitude.

[Gambler]

The story is really bad, I have two cases in my circle of acquaintances who are affected and some have saved for a really long time.. that's really bad.

What I don't understand is that they have insurance against these bankruptcies, but based on the bookings they are completely underinsured, why doesn't anyone check this, we can't be underinsured either.. I can't understand that.

[Glumbi]

Very clear thing Gambler, I see the whole thing completely incomprehensible.
