I posess a number of the "redundancy" tee shirts thank you.

The whole market has changed. The charter market is deminishing especially in the UK as witnesses by how many UK charter airlines are no longer with us.

I have no doubt what-so-ever that TCX will survive as they remain profitable in Germany and Scandanavia.

However, TCX performance in the UK is lamentable and getting worse, fact.

The question is how long the UK operation will be allowed to operate on this basis.

Oh and just for the record. They have a very large portion of my pension and it is not in my interest to see this buisness disappear.

We are seeing many famous names in high street disappear. The same I fear will happen to TCX UK........it is...a matter of time especially when you factor in the perilous state of the UK economy alongside many of its European counterparts.

No, its not good. But lets not pretend. This is a very real possibility.
