akriener Posted April 27, 2020 Share #1 Posted April 27, 2020 I traveled with this company a couple weeks after the 75th anniversary of D-Day last year and had a great time. Apparently they have removed their entire social media presence, shut down their e-mail, website and phones. They have declared bankruptcy in Florida on 4/15/20. There is a group here on Facebook gaining traction and it looks like a class action lawsuit is in the works: https://www.facebook.com/groups/678543049623257 Apparently people who purchased insurance through the BBoB company have been unable to get refunds and the owner is speculated to have run off to Europe, probably back to Hungary with hundreds of thousands of dollars. A shame all around. If you had travel planned with them for this year I encourage you to reach out to your credit card company, any outside travel insurance or an attorney immediately to try and recoup your losses.

manayunkman Posted May 10, 2020 Share #3 Posted May 10, 2020 Was this due to the virus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akriener Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted May 11, 2020 I believe it was a combination of that and some poor financial dealings by the owner, Peter Gaal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
