The U.K. Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has announced that it is wrapping up Operation Matterhorn, the program it put in place to return more than 140,000 people to the country after they were stranded by the liquidation of tourism company Thomas Cook on Sept. 23. According to the CAA, the operation involved 150 aircraft from 50 partners around the world along with a CAA staff of more than 400 people. The final Operation Matterhorn flight—the program’s 746th—is scheduled to arrive at Manchester Airport (MAN) on Monday with 392 passengers onboard.
