Thomas Cook Independent, Managing Director Ian Derbyshire remarked - “Given that we have chosen Travelink as the interim Tour-Operator platform of choice in TC Independent whilst evaluating long- term strategic options, it is now essential that we continue to ensure as close an alignment a s possible between our systems and the ever-evolving needs of our business. I believe this new initiative is key to maintaining and indeed increasing our competitive advantage”.
