I am so sorry for this company that I have used in one way or another since I discovered
Icmeler 5 years ago as they have always been excellent and have generally provided better flight times from Glasgow than the big players. This is has been an essential for me as I have a three hour drive to Glasgow and don't want additional overnight
hotel costs there.
I felt that the company surpassed itself last year when I was involved in the XLAir fiasco and they laid on flights with FlyBestAir at very short notice. As someone previously posted, I wonder if the additional costs involved in this have led to their downfall?
My flights this year were again booked through Scot Travel at a competitive price and again with good flight times. On hearing of their demise last night, while on election duty and with my brain numbed beyond boredom, was one of sympathy, initially for them before my own circumstance kicked in.
Fortunately, I paid with my Visa Mastercard so I should be OK and have contacted my bank to set the wheels in motion to reclaim my payment. I have also been lucky (eh) enough to have been able to book flights on my departure and return dates, albeit at a cost of £120.00 more.
I'm still trying to come to terms with the fact that this has happened to me in two consecutive years but I suppose it is a reality of the the current climate. I really thought that nothing worse could happen to a holiday than the collapse of sterling when Northern Rock went belly up.
Please do not buy your lucky white heather from me
