Thomas Cook going down the pan ?

The problem with TC is that they have their fingers in many pies rather than just the core business. They used to do good priced flights to places like Las Vegas but they pulled out of those kind of flights in 2008, and yet visitor numbers are on the rise

They bought Gold Medal Travel (www.netflights.com) for £71M in 2008, they've probably been pushing their flight only business to the USA that way since 2008. I frequently check netflights site and FB pages and they heavily promote flights to most US cities.

Now that's very true a major lack of focus on their core business. Probably due to being owned by businesses that have no real feeling for the 'tourism' market.

I'm sure TC would do better to get out of the 'cheaper' holiday market.
