jake Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Even if travel restrictions are lifted I wont be going. I try to take just me and my kids away once a year so not risking the youngest. The rest are grown up but still. Plus this 2 week isolation on return and no cash coming my way the last few weeks. Would rather take the hit than risk things but it's a sore one. I'm sure it will sort itself out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuel Camazzola Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 It's probably the formatting of the booking reference as it could be temperamental. As your booking is cancelled, you'll get the pending payment back no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks said no Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) A gold star to Seajet Ferries in Greece. Emailed them yesterday asking to cancel. They emailed me back at 0923 today confirming and giving me the credit note I wanted. If I don't use in timeframe then it becomes a refund, assuming they don't go bust first. Now to try TUI again, gave up after being on hold for 25 minutes on the new number given, for 3rd party flights booked with TUI.

Is that wishful thinking it will happen? Jet2 are planning on re-starting their flights around the 16th June or so, so the flight might go ahead as planned, however there might be next to nothing open in Cyprus though, when they get there. The flight to Cyprus or anywhere for that matter might be the easy part, it's what the conditions are on the ground at your destination which is more difficult to determine right now.

Shanks said no Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Failed with TUI, 43 minutes on hold (total of 2hrs all told) Tried to get flight changed, despite TUI no longer selling the Virgin flight I am booked on, as its been pulled. Asked to switch to the BA flight that they are selling and takes off an hour later. Could only do this if I paid a change to booking fee. Turned down that option, asked for a note to be added to my file that I was unhappy with the response. Felt for the girl as she was obviously having a nightmare but she kept giving the line "we haven't been informed by the airline that the flight has been cancelled" and "when we do hear we might switch to Heathrow" Will sit on it and wait. Not booking another holiday until some form of normality returns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think it's eventually going to be a case of, feck it, we can't hide away forever from this and people will just learn to live with it (assuming there isn't a vaccine anytime soon if at all), what we'll see this year is a few tentative steps taken, next year things in your industry will begin to recover, albeit in baby steps at first, picking up pace as the weeks/months progress.
