    Wow, thats some bump.

    No, I just don't like people demanding compo and silly refunds for anything and everything.

    A few months ago we had someone on here demanding a full refund from Thomas Cook going bust AFTER he got a free rescue flight back home on the exact same day he was due to fly back. Absurd.
     Not just absurd but utter greed

    The Spanish seem to have made a complete !!!!!!-up of their border arrangements over coronavirus, actually causing large agglomerations of unprotected people and significant unnecessary travel.
    What they should have done was ensure that their borders and hotels remain open indefinitely but insist that anybody travelling wears a mask, and where appropriate, insist on quarantine.
    Similarly, airlines should have been required to slowly run down their schedules.

    Agreed. Missed the Feb. 2020.
    However similar chaos repeated.
