I have a holiday booked for 1st July from Heathrow to New York and is a package holiday with BA. I’ve had an email saying I am eligible to receive a holiday voucher, I am happy to take this is as I want to go back to New York in the future, however does anyone know what would happen if BA was to go bust and I haven’t used my holiday voucher?
Thank you!

    If it's an ABTA RCN then fully protected .

    If it's only backed by BA then it's at risk

    I would expect your email about the vouchers to include some terms and conditions . 

    I would not expect it to be an ABTA RCN as not a package

    Reading the terms and conditions I think I read it that a package must be booked for ATOL protection
