    Lots of good questions all brought about by a threat from Branson himself to put the airline into administration, a guaranteed way to lose forward bookings. If it stops flying then you don't fly and claim your money back if you used a credit or debit card. If it's bought out then I would expect a new owner to honour existing bookings, it makes no sense not to. I would demand refunds not vouchers as these will not be financially protected I expect.
