Hi everyone
I need some advice on a booked future flight, I'm currently furloughed.
The furlough scheme has been extended to the end of June. I have an Easyjet flight booked in June 2020 (work-related) If I'm still furloughed and unable to work is it possible to get a refund via credit card or travel insurance for the flight? 
Thanks :smile:

    Is it work travel? I too am not getting the furlough connection. As above x2 if/when they cancel then you can assess your options.

    I don't get the link either,  even if it were for work travel the OP would claim it back as normal right.
