The British airline has been placed into administration, and is being called the country’s biggest ever airline collapse, after emergency talks with the Civil Aviation Authority broke down.
All flights from the UK and future bookings have been cancelled as the low-cost airline failed to get its Air Travel Organiser’s Licence (Atol) licence renewed.
A programme has been launched by the Civil Aviation Authority to bring 110,000 customers back to the UK. Those who are abroad will be returned home at no extra cost and do not need to cut their breaks short. 300,000 future bookings have also been cancelled prompting transport secretary, Chris Grayling, to call it “the country’s biggest ever peacetime repatriation”.
