We were due to fly back with XL airways on Saturday morning but they went bust on Friday so we had to spend almost £300 each to fly back to the UK and will not get any money back as we had bought our tickets directly with XL. It made me realise how naive I am and take so many things for granted. The loss is not great for us and I see it as an experience. The tickets we bought initially were probably too cheap for everybody's own good but thinking of all the implications: people have lost their jobs, tourist destinations have lost their income.
And now, Lehman Brothers...
