Some people are accusing airlines and tour operators raising prices following the collapse of Thomas Cook of being “Vultures”. This is somewhat unfair and could mean…

Seats being priced at discount prices for the off-season being gobbled up when a company goes bust and none at all left for those who really need to travel.

It is a matter of supply and demand, though some companies are adding flights or capacity which can reduce prices.
