Brits to be asked to take vouchers instead of refunds on package holidays during coronavirus pandemic
HOLIDAYMAKERS are being asked to take vouchers instead of refunds for their cancelled trips in a bid to protect the travel industry.
The huge payout could lead to a number of travel firms collapsing, due to the lack of revenue and refund amounts. The European Commission has already updated its guidance on the Package Travel Directive in relation to customer claims refunds. Jet2 are currently telling customers on social media: "In order to make sure we get you the perfect holiday at a time to suit you, we can issue you with a voucher to the value of your booking."
