The CAA is currently making arrangements for customers abroad to complete their holidays and return to the UK, and to refund fully those with forward bookings.
Perfect Choice is the second Turkey specialist to collapse this month.
Kent-based Turkey specialist Fly Brits also ceased trading, with around 200 holidaymakers abroad and 250 with forward bookings.
