It's all looking rather grim, they had a few "rescue" packages on the table all of which appear to have been withdrawn. Their share price has fallen by 95% since this time last year which has lost a lot of shareholders a great deal of money. Even the big financial houses aren't interested in buying up shares at even 4.5p as the feeling is that they will fall even further. Fingers crossed that a last minute solution is found for them and all who work for them.

Booked to Orlando in 3 weeks time, countdown started at 535 days. Friend of son is booked to Mexico next weekend and he has received e-mail today from TC saying all is going ahead as planned. Us taxpayers bailed out RBS * Lloyds and at last minute they changed goalposts in rescue package and could end up costing Government another 600 million in repatriating everyone if TC fail.

That's a worrying development. Aircraft are still flying as per schedule which is a good thing

My Brother-in-law told me a similar thing happened when Monarch went under- when they were on holiday in I think Cyprus, a friend of his was asked to pay for his holiday again as he would get his money back quicker than the hotel would.

The Easterns I hear are troop movers to the desert to prop up Saudi refinery security

I'm truly gutted that Thomas Cook has gone to the wall not least because it is probably the oldest tour company in the world and it's a part of our heritage. My sympathy goes out to the entire workforce and everyone that is currently booked with them. A very sad loss indeed but listening to the reports over the weekend, their senior management have a lot to answer for. The writing has been on the wall for a long time but as Simon Calder correctly said at the weekend - once the cat is out the bag it's self perpetuating and people won't book if there's the slightest hint of a problem. This ranks with Laker going under and to a lessor extent Monarch. I know there have been many others in the UK like Court Line but this one makes me very sad. Interesting that the German arm of TC appears to be secure!

[keefyboy]

Postscript:

I see that Flybe are already trying to recruit ex TC staff.

The likes of Jet2 and TUI have already hiked their holiday prices!

German arm of TC appears to be secure!

Keefboy,they are not secure the German law is apparently slightly different,and allows for a carry on for a short time as it did for Air Berlin,this has also allowed Thomas Cook Balearics to continue.

Condor leased A330-243 G-VYGK has been returned to AirTanker at Brize this afternoon.

[graham]

LY-EEL seems to be working out of BRS on repat flights

[jargon]

Lucky to catch two Eastern 767's this afternoon, N700KW around 15.00 and N703KW around 15.40 both ex Gatwick

9H-MIP A380 Hi-fly is currently in Gatwick ex Enfidha having already been in from Dalaman in the early hours

Aigle Azur & XL France have both also apparently hit the buffers per Reuters www.reuters.com/article/us-thomas-cook-grp-investment-europe-air/strains-that-sank-thomas-cook-weigh-on-european-airlines-idUSKBN1W81PB

While Adria also has news on Reuters www.reuters.com/article/slovenia-adria/slovenias-adria-airways-temporarily-stops-flying-over-debt-idUSL5N26F0P0

Apart from the lists above does anyone have any more information on repatriation flights

Regards

John

[jargon]

Another two gone by17.20 N739MA Miami Air ex Glasgow at 41k and 17.33 SU-BQM Nile Air ex Birmingham at 28k fortunately again through a blue patch

Working in the industry it is difficult to get advance info as as many aircraft do short notice flights FROM the country the flight is due from, as the CAA will be using Brokers to fill spaces as well as the a/c based in the UK like Malaysian A380,all the LY- and YL- Airbuses's originally used by Thomas Cook.

ie Nouvelair have used TS-INQ and INQ from Tunis
   Nile Air have used SU-BMQ from Egypt

These a/c if available will do a W flight so Morning maybe Bristol and Afternoon Leeds ,Eastern may do Gatwick then a Glasgow

If tou use FR24 enter AWC into the search this will give some of the flightsas a clue and the numbers usually equate to the Thomas Cook numbers ,but like the A380 it will be doing 2 to 3 flights combined.

Thanks Michael

Considering the weather and the little time I've had looking for them, I've had a good haul of the more unusual charter offerings since T Cook's sad demise.

N705KW went south from Glasgow this afternoon and I still would like to catch up with that one

John

[graham]

I believe most of those Eastern 767s are ex BA?

[jargon]

Hi Graham

A quick check on Airfleets show that all the Easterns currently starting N70 all originally started with BA

N700KW was G-BNWP, N703KW was G-BNWK, N705KW was G-BNWJ & N706KW was G-BNWG

N703KW went south out of Gatwick this morning at 07.55

N705KW went west out of Gatwick this morning at 09.07, sadly it didn't ping on FR24 until it was in the air

I've never seen Eastern in any of it's lives up to now, so it was good to catch two of them (700&703) even if they were only silhouette's in very poor weather.

"Eastern" always conjures up still vivid memories of my first ever Stateside trip in May/June 72 John along with Dave Allum and Keith H from the forum here and two other pals. Five teenage lads on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Washington, sat on the mezzanine floor of what was then Washington National looking out through the floor to roof enormous windows to the apron where everything taxied past us. DC9 and 727 heaven and we saw huge chunks of the Eastern fleet plus the other carriers that used the airport.

Working in the industry it is difficult to get advance info as as many aircraft do short notice flights FROM the country the flight is due from, as the CAA will be using Brokers to fill spaces as well as the a/c based in the UK like Malaysian A380,all the LY- and YL- Airbuses's originally used by Thomas Cook.

ie Nouvelair have used TS-INQ and INQ from Tunis
   Nile Air have used SU-BMQ from Egypt

These a/c if available will do a W flight so Morning maybe Bristol and Afternoon Leeds ,Eastern may do Gatwick then a Glasgow

If tou use FR24 enter AWC into the search this will give some of the flightsas a clue and the numbers usually equate to the Thomas Cook numbers ,but like the A380 it will be doing 2 to 3 flights combined.

VS have also been involved in a lot of transatlantic repatriation flights as well

Hi Graham That is a great haul,  you obviously have fond memories of that trip.

Talking to Bills friend Malcolm about Eastern the other day, he was remembering trips on their Constellations

Regards

John

Very fond indeed John, only my second ever trip abroad, the first being a school trip to Switzerland when I was 13, which Keith H also came along on as we went to the same school. We went in the late May of 72, I turned 16 the previous February so quite an adventure for a mid teenager. And we got to fly to Dulles and back on a BCAL B707.
