Existing bookings will be reimbursed only if they have paid by credit card. That'll leave a lot of people out of pocket.  :(

Apparently ABTA does not cover the bookings

Am feeling very fortunate today after we booked our May holiday to Calis with Low Cost Holidays. This was the first and, obviously, only time I've used them purely because the same flight and hotel package with them was considerably cheaper than Travel Republic. We had no problems at all and all went well. 

I do feel desperately sorry for people who have lost holidays and/or money now, especially at this time of year with so many families about to go away.  Also all the employees who have lost jobs and who will find it increasingly difficult to find jobs within the travel industry now.  :(
