UK should plan for 'travel corridors' between countries with low infections from next month, Heathrow boss urges
So when CAN I go holiday? We answer your biggest questions on travelling after lockdownQ) My holiday was cancelled but I am still waiting for my money back and can’t get through to the company.This is a familiar problem and one there is frustratingly no answer to. If you have bought a package holiday, the regulations state you should receive your refund within two weeks, for a cancelled flight it is seven days.
If you are struggling, try calling at unsocial hours. Email or even write a letter with your request. Sending a letter via recorded delivery or having a chain of emails will give you concrete evidence you have tried and failed to get your money back and could help you get your money back via travel insurance or your credit card instead.
While many would like to support the industry – and get their holiday – the problem remains that the Government has not indicated if these notes or vouchers are financially-protected in the same way a package holiday would be. If you can afford to accept a refund voucher or note and are wanting to travel as soon as you can, you may want to agree.Simple answer – I don’t know! While everyone is desperate for things to return to normal, it doesn’t look like that is going to happen for a long time.
What is clear is if lockdown easing measures already suggested go ahead as planned, we could be looking at holidaying at home from the start of July. But any spike could see moves to open up the hospitality industry delayed. My feeling is that holidays abroad may really only be possible from the autumn.Don't miss the latest news and figures - and essential advice for you and your family.
