The Association of British Travel Agents reports that Greek Tourism-Travel Limited of Regent Street, London, (ABTA nos. J4795/W5626 and ATOL no. 6676) has gone into liquidation and ceased trading yesterday (4 May 2005).

It is believed that the company had approximately 130 forward bookings and it is likely that many of these customers will be able to continue with their holiday plans.

In the first instance, customers should contact the credit control departments of the tour operator with whom their holiday was booked, but if customers have booked a package holiday with the tour operator side of Greek Tourism-Travel Ltd then they should call 020 7 453 6350. For non-ATOL claims or for further assistance call the ABTA Claims Department 020 7 637 2444.
