What happens to the Thomas Cook hotels?
we stay in Greece every year, at a mainly Thomas Cook booked hotel (we book direct though through the hotel owner), he has always moaned the TC took 3 or 6 months to pay him, after the guests had stayed.

Holiday drop out
Dear all, Please could I ask for your help? We’re due to go away to Las Vegas, four of us. The trip is fully paid, and each traveller has paid their way. One friend is now unable to travel, and has “pulled out”. What are the implications of this? Do I need to let the airline know? Can we still go just the three of us!

Thomas Cook - paid by gift card
Hi, We’ve booked a package deal for October but my concern is that we paid with gift cards. Our employer offers a perk scheme where you buy gift cards saving you 5% on the cost of your holiday.
