Thomas Cook Insolvency Impacts at US airports

Just saw this on the evening news. Live shots from JFK and EWR; the airports looked an absolute mess. I'd never heard of this travel agency but the news said they were the oldest (& largest?) Travel Agency in the world. They ceased operations immediately cancelling all future flights and holidays. Said as many as 150,000 - 200,000 customers are stranded around the world.


Did any flyers today notice larger than normal numbers of folks stranded at other U.S. airports today?


Feel horrible for these folks. NY times link:
