Tunisia-Thomas Cook owes Tunisian hotels $66 million

British travel giant Thomas Cook  owes Tunisian hotels $66 million, said Minister of Tourism and Handicraft Rene Trabelsi. In a statement to Reuters Trabelsi said that 4,500 British Thomas Cook clients are still in the country

“I will have a meeting on Tuesday with the British Embassy in Tunisia and the hotel owners to see how debt could be redeemed,” Trabelsi said.

Britain’s Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) stated the local government provided an active fleet of planes to bring home British tourists over the next two weeks and they should not go to the airport until they are promptly notified of their return fly.

The British regulator is also reaching hotels receiving Thomas Cook customers to properly inform them that they will be adequately compensated by the government, through an insurance scheme.
