We are actively representing two families who fell ill following separate package holidays at Aska Lara Resort & Spa in Turkey in August and September 2026. If you became unwell during or shortly after a stay in either month, we urge you to get in touch. Call 0161 813 2131, complete our online contact form or speak to a legal expert on live chat.
Two bookings, two accounts of illness
In August 2026, a family of four fell ill during a package holiday booked through Jet2holidays. E. coli and Cryptosporidium were identified among members of the family.
In September 2026, a family of two who booked through easyJet holidays reported suspected food poisoning. Salmonella was identified in this case.
Oliver Linton, legal expert at Holiday Claims Bureau, said “The families travelled in different months and received different diagnoses, so we’re looking at each case separately. If you became unwell after staying at Aska Lara, knowing when you arrived, when your symptoms started and whether you received a diagnosis could help us understand what happened.”
How can I support a claim for compensation?
Your booking confirmation shows when you stayed and who arranged your package holiday. Keep it alongside any medical records, test results or messages you sent to the resort or tour operator. A short account of when you first felt unwell and how the illness affected your trip can also help us assess a potential holiday illness claim.
If other people in your party fell ill, tell us when their symptoms began. If you exchanged details with other guests who became unwell, you can invite them to contact us directly. Where accounts overlap, they can help support one another and inform our assessment of whether claims could be pursued together as part of a group holiday illness claim. Each person’s circumstances are considered individually.
