Airlines are under tremendous financial pressures and are encouraging passengers whose flights have been cancelled to take vouchers or re-arranged flights - rather than full refunds. By law though the airlines should reimburse those wanting their money back. But many who want refunding are still struggling despite weeks of trying, We hear from some of the many passengers seeking recompense, what their legal rights are, and calls for the Government to intervene as tension rises between the airlines and their customers.
Meanwhile there are many travellers who have been stuck abroad since the UK went into lockdown. The Government launched a major rescue operation at the time, bringing home thousands of holidaymakers.
