The collapse of BlueSky Travel System is turning into a rather intriguing saga, as a number of parties central to the story battle it out as to what really happened in the run up to the company going under earlier this week.
The confusion comes as Tnooz learns that a bid for the business was put on the table earlier today. Administrators MCR confirm a bid was received but will not disclose the value and source of the offer.
But there now appears to be a major discrepancy between what Thomas Cook Group and the administrators are saying publicly about the contract at what appears to be at the heart of BlueSky’s demise.
