Fleetway Travel - ceases trading


Another CV19 casualty. 

Fleetway Travel, who had been trading for 45 years, has ceased trading today. 

They offered holidays under both the Fleetway Travel name and also traded under the names of Late BargainsExclusive Luxury Breaks, Explorer’s Collection, Luxury Holiday Collection, Phone & Fly, Sail Away, Silversurfers Holidays and Travelsmart.

The CAA's ATOL scheme will now handle claims for refunds for those who had an ATOL protected package trip.

    Not the first to go this year, Funway holidays went before them.

    Funway did not fail, they simply announced they were closing down and refunding everyone who has forward bookings or were holding Refund Credit Notes. No ATOL claims as will be the case with Fleetway and judging by the comments on the Corona Virus forum, a number of others.
