“Unacceptable”: Crossland on MyTravel

MYTRAVEL chairman David Crossland has described the company's performance in 2002 as "unacceptable”.

In its annual report, Crossland said difficult trading conditions, a poor performance in the UK and accounting problems led MyTravel to experience "the worst year in its history”.

However, the report failed to reveal the pay-offs given to former chief executive Tim Byrne and finance director David Jardine.

Despite the company's performance, Byrne and Jardine still pocked £688,000 and £506,000 respectively.
