Flash Pack returns after year-long closure

Vyas and Thompson said they have spent the past year helping 95% of previous customers claim refunds, while also raising enough investment for the new business to survive any future waves of Covid and to bring the balance sheet back to pre-pandemic levels.

The firm will now operate using a trust bank account and stripped back its 74 tour offerings to just 16 in a bid to improve and maintain quality.

A number of staff members from the previous Flash Pack team have also re-joined, after they were made redundant by the company last year.

"Our community is paramount, it’s why we exist," Vyas and Thompson added.

"It’s why we’re still the only travel company to obsess over group dynamics. The drive behind ambitions like including our community in important business decisions.

"The motivation to bake it into our very DNA, into everything we do. But if there’s one single, biggest lesson the pandemic and all of your emails, comments and calls have reaffirmed, it’s that Flash Pack must continue to bring people together."
