Announcement
Wednesday, April 15, 2009
Conquest Vacations Inc. announced today the cessation of its tour operations effective immediately.
Customers who are booked and paid using cash/check through a travel agency are requested to contact their respective agency who will assist you with respect to a refund or claim.
Customers who have booked directly with Conquest Vacations will be contacted or should they wish to contact Conquest, please email to directcustomers@conquestvacations.com with a booking reference number.
Customers who have booked and paid for their future travel using a credit card, should contact their credit card issuing institution for a refund.
Conquest Vacations regrets the inconvenience caused to the passengers due to cessation of its operations. Unfortunately this has been a result of overcapacity and price war among the major tour operators, unrealistic and unreasonable demands by the credit card processing companies, credit squeeze and economic turmoil in recent months making it impossible for companies like Conquest to continue in business even after weathering many storms over the past 37 years.
FP article. Not much more info than from Conquests web site.

Don't know how this impacts people already on or about to go on a holiday purchased through Conquest.
