Airlines must become bonded to protect consumers, warn travel agents

TRAVEL agents have warned that more passengers will be left stranded unless airlines become bonded

The strongest criticism came from Dublin-based tour operator, Stein Travel, which said it had already alerted State bodies.

“In fact, we warned the Director of Consumer Affairs about the imminent collapse of Jetmagic as far back as November 10, and the problems that could arise for consumers,” said chief executive Bryanna O’Higgins.
