Hi All

Happened to be looking at business news this am and saw this: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/18/20090608/tbs-german-finance-minister-arcando-coul-5268574.html - this company own 50% share of Thomas Cook. We have already booked our honeymoon through T Cook and hope we won't be affected by any financial downfall - but just thought I would pass this on as extra info for others thinking or about to book with T Cook x

    I hope not.....My Original flight and accomodation for my wedding was booked with Kosmar last year, and was rebooked with Thomas Cook!

    I'll be really screwed if this happens, at least with Kosmar I only lost my deposit (which I'm still waiting for!) this time I'd lose the whole cost. ?

    This statement is on TC website:

    Thomas Cook Update – Arcandor

    Thomas Cook would like to reassure its customers and suppliers that there is no cause for concern following Arcandor AG's, Thomas Cook Group plc’s majority shareholder with a 52.8% stake, approach to the German Government and European Union with a request for state assistance with its current financial position.

    Arcandor has always been a very supportive shareholder that values its stake in Thomas Cook, but our businesses are entirely independent, both operationally and financially. We are a standalone company, listed in our own right on the London Stock Exchange and, as such, are completely ring-fenced.

    All Thomas Cook customers and suppliers can be assured that it is business as usual and our operations are completely unaffected.
