Thomas Cook are the worst travel firm in the world to deal with.  Don't get me started on them.

Seems a bit cold to ask for compensation etc.

Just my opinion.

You're probably right, but no worse than Thomas Cook charging for a change of destination.

Disagree Celtic.

Lee has paid for holiday, taken time off work etc

He should be compensated for Thomas Cook forcing him to change plans.

Thomas Cook have already stated he has to pay the difference in holiday cost.  He isn't cancelling, they are, and they are doing it because they will run the flight at a loss.

I am not talking about trying to find somewhere in the Seychelles.  Just try and find somewhere that is a little bit more where they have availability.  Say can I go there at no extra cost?  Point out that you didn't want to cancel and that they should be offering rerouting and compensation.  

If you take somewhere where the flight isn't full and the resort has availability, it probably costs Thomas Cook less than they would be paying on a cash refund and compensation.  Make it win/win.

This all assumes that you are between 7 and 14 days away.

Shouldn't we now be taking advantage of the financial wisdom in the thread earlier; accept the refund and re-book at the new cheaper danger rates available

Are you still going then Lee?.

A colleague from work and his wife was amongst the victims. Not sure why it seems to bring it closer to home when it is someone you can identify but it seems that way, maybe makes it more real? I don't know.

Anyway if you are going enjoy as like a lot say it can happen anywhere. x
