Florida specialist folds
An Essex-based ABTA agent specialising in Florida has collapsed, the eighth ABTA agent to go bust this year.

ABTA’s claims department is dealing with claims arising from the failure.
The trading names were: Flightfinders, Just Go USA, Just US Cities, Posh Magical Dreams, USA Dreams, Quality Travel, Flightwise, Faresavers, Posh Travel & Sport, Jetworld, Your Holidays Start Here, Bargain Flights, County Travel & Sport, Rochford Travel & Leisure and Flight Specialists.
