Another holiday firm goes bust

Victoria Derbyshire | 07:32 UK time, Friday, 12 September 2008

Britain's third largest tour operator XL has collapsed, leaving 85,000 customers stranded abroad and another 200,000 facing losing their holidays. Hundreds of people have been arriving at airports across the country ready to go on holiday - only to find out they can't get on a plane. Some customers might not even know they've booked with XL - because it trades under eight other names. This morning: Are you affected? Are you at an airport now, or facing losing your holiday altogether? Or are you one of the thousands who worked for the company? When did you find out there was a problem?
