Yes booked directly, I assume so? I'm no expert though

You are covered for flights with Thomas Cook if you booked through thomas Cook holidays, you arn’t covered if you booked direct with the airline!

If you booked through high street you are protected. If you booked direct you are not

Not just high street if you booked online through thomas cook holidays then you are covered, its booking direct through the airlines that isn't covered, but the flights are cheaper direct, so its swings and roundabouts!

That was four years ago. Some charters at that time were able to ATOL protect flight only bookings, but this has now changed.

Reports are coming out the Hi Fly have made an approach to buy the TC airline fleet. Details are sketchy at present about what they would do with it, apparently there are a few options


1) acquire and let TC air run as separate entity owned by HiFly

2) use the TC operator licence to form a HI Fly direct sales airline

3) use TC planes to increase their fleet that they hire to others

4) parcel it up selling off profitable routes to other operators and keeping the bits they want

Now they have put in an offer (non binding) expect others to be forced to make a move if they are considering it.

I doubt TC will last the summer in its current guise, but that all the bits of it will be still in operation under various forms of ownership

Source of these options?

I cannot seem to find anything on the internet about those options unless you have insider information?

They've got a few interested, but no firm offers as yet, which will probably be over the next month or so.
