Goldtrail collapse leaves Britons in Greece and Turkey
A plane Flights home from Turkey will operate as normal but passengers in Greece were told to expect changes
A British tour operator has collapsed leaving thousands of holidaymakers abroad, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has said.
Greece and Turkey specialist Goldtrail, based in New Malden, Surrey, went into administration on Friday afternoon with an estimated 16,000 customers overseas.
The CAA said it is arranging to fly customers home after their holiday.
Goldtrail customers can call the CAA on 0203 4410846 for the latest information about the collapsed company.
The CAA said flights home from Turkey will operate as normal but holidaymakers in Greece were warned to expect changes.
Those in Greece are advised to check with representatives at local airports.
The CAA said there were no more outbound Goldtrail flights and it advised customers due to fly with the failed operator to check with their travel agent before travelling to the airport.
In a statement issued on its website, the aviation regulator said: "The CAA has taken steps to protect customers booked with Goldtrail Travel Limited after the company ceased trading.
"The CAA, under its ATOL (Air Travel Organiser's Licensing) scheme, is making arrangements for customers abroad to travel home at the end of their holidays."
