Thomas Cook today said it will close 200 travel shops over the next two years as it battles for survival.
The warning comes as the travel giant announced pre-tax losses of almost £400million.
It had already warned that 75 sites would have to close following its merger with the Co-op’s UK high street travel business, but today said a further 125 will be shut, putting around 1,000 jobs under threat.
