ATHENS - About 50,000 tourists are stranded in Greece and mainly on island resorts after British travel firm Thomas Cook collapsed, the tourism minister said on Monday as extra flights were booked to ease their return home.
“We have about 50,000 people in Greece and there has been a rescue plan, a plan of repatriation currently underway,” Tourism Minister Harry Theoharis told Reuters. About 22,000 tourists were expected to return home at the end of their holidays, with the rest returning after seven to 10 days, he said.Thomas Cook’s financial collapse would deal a significant blow to hoteliers, since many vacation packages were not prepaid, the head of Greece’s hotel federation said.
