Up to 150 people have been left stranded in Turkey after the collapse of a north London-based tour operator.<\/p>\n
K&S Travel, which also trades under the name Travel Turkey, organises package tours to the country through flights chartered with Onur Air.<\/p>\n
A K&S Travel spokesman said the firm would organise flights for those abroad when their holidays were completed.<\/p>\n
It is thought more than 85,000 people have been left stranded abroad after Friday’s collapse of XL Leisure Group.<\/p>\n
XL is the UK’s third largest tour operator.<\/p>\n
The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said the holidaymakers were covered by the Atol protection scheme and will be entitled to a full refund.<\/p>\n
The CAA is understood to be rechartering planes from Onur to ensure the return of K&S passengers, most of whom are in the resort of Bodrum.<\/p>\n
But 460 people who have future holidays booked through K&S Travel will have their travel plans cancelled.<\/p>\n
