Groundloop - relatively few people book holidays at this time of year. - you obviously have no understanding of the current marlet place. Over the last two years the booking profile has changed dramatically. Where you received the bulk of your bookings in Jan /Feb time this is no longer the case. Yes you do take bookings but not to the level of previous years, increasingly people are booking later and later and the vast majority are looking for a cheap deal.

1/ I believe Goldtrail had been operating well before the demise of XL and anyway didnt this Director leave Goldtrail about a year ago, ?
2/ I understand from recent events that Goldtrail were a customer of Viking as are a number of other UK tour operators, if another one went bust would Viking be responsible for that?
3/ If that is the case your point is?
4/ you are totally correct!
