Agent and operator Phileas Fogg Travel is the latest ABTA member to go out of business.
The direct-sell firm, with offices in Farnborough and Bracknell, ceased trading on Friday.
The company acted as both a tour operator and a travel agent and joined ABTA 10 years ago.
It is the third ABTA member to fold under under a week.
The ABTA claims department is handling the retail side of the Phileas Fogg failure while the Civil Aviation Authority will be responsible for the tour operating business.
