@divegeester saidQuite so, and it's often the case with companies that the bigger the are the harder they fall. I've been in business all my working life, but never in a big enough way to fall very far, so I never fell. Certainly I never had 21,000 employees, I think the most I ever managed was 10!
Thomas Cook were much more than just an agent, they were a travel company with global reach and 21,000 employees world wide. I feel sad for the employees and for the demise of a heritage brand in the industry. Their demise is their own fault of course, it’s been on the cards for several years and they failed to adapt to changing market condition and evolve structurally and commercially.
