Thomas Cook is flying their Customers back From War Zone GAMBIA (18/1/17)
 
I have done a thread on this
it was Gambia and another sad nation,


Its Good of Thomas Cook
to make a Effort.

The Airport is expected to Close
due to a Election and War


Gambia used to be owned by us
under our British Empire.
They have a top level tourist zone
and beach.


But its not worth the risk,now

Political corruption in Africa? Surely not. I'm led to believe that the UK is the most corrupt government in the world! Is that not true?

Africa is a cesspit when it comes to political leaders, once they get in they want the job for life:shrug:

Its fcuking disgusting. Most other European countries have been stopping holiday flights to Gambia and getting tourists safely home for many weeks. It seems that England is the last in line to be getting people out but instead they’ve been handing out cheap trips.

This danger hasn't just started. The country has been in a very unpredictable state for months and the threat of a 'state of emergency was imminent'. My question is, how the hell could our government have left the warning to get out so late when Yahya Jammeh is a complete mad man who has been persistently threatening to kill all none Muslims including tourists.

The Gambia Experience

Customers booked on a package holiday are being advised to remain in their hotel and will be accommodated by us until they return to the UK. Gambia Experience flight-only customers, with a valid return ticket, are asked to contact our local resort office on (00220) 446 3867 should they wish to return to the UK on a repatriation flight.


ESSENTIAL TRAVEL ONLY

Our last know flight out to The Gambia will be Friday 20th January from London Gatwick. If you consider your need to travel essential, (e.g. Gambia national returning home) then we may be able to arrange a one-way fare. Please contact our reservations department on 01489 866939 https://www.gambia.co.uk/faq

How are they going to get all those people out before tomorrow?

Gambia is a Great Nation
I hope the hotels and Tourist places
get back on to trading as normal soon.
