A UK travel company has been forced to close – with all future holidays cancelled.
In a shock announcement, Balkan Holidays revealed that it was shutting for business as of today (April 24).
All upcoming holiday bookings will be cancelled, the tour operator added.
The full statement, shared to Facebook and the company's website, read: “We regret to inform you that Balkan Holidays Ltd has, as of 24th of April 2025, closed for business in the UK.
“The company has not gone into liquidation, however all forward holiday bookings have been cancelled.
“All clients will be notified and refunded in full.
“May we kindly ask for patience as we process the refunds and appreciate your understanding.
“Thank you for your past business and please accept our most sincere apologies for the disappointment and inconvenience.”
Customers have been urged to email [email protected] for refunds.
However, those who booked via a travel agent will need to contact the agent for a refund.
The company added that it would work as fast as it could to process refunds – and would prioritise refunds in order of departure date.
