COMP FUND: TICO board approves claims

On March 28, TICO’s board of directors approved payment of $28,783.55 to assist 39 consumers who did not receive the travel services for which they had paid. These payments were due to the closure of Atlas Air Travel in Toronto ($4,286.40); EZjet Air Services in Guyana ($22,010.30) and Malev Airlines in Hungary ($2,486.85). The board also denied one claim as it was received beyond the legislated six-month claim filing deadline. Go to http://www.tico.ca for more.
