Good evening,
I booked a Package holiday through TUI to Greece. The holiday has not been cancelled yet, spoke to TUI about changing the Holiday/Flights but have been told we can only Change our flights to another EasyJet flight or we lose £461, we didn’t book our flights with EasyJet, we booked the whole holiday through TUI as a package holiday on 27th June.Could you please give me any ideas.

    The 27th June part... is that the date you are due to fly? As LGO says is wait for them to cancel to protect the money you’ve paid.

    According to the Greece board of Tripadvisor, there will be an announcement tomorrow about which countries will be allowed into Greece.
    but you might find this interesting:
    The government has said it plans to restore international flights to Greece's islands from July 1 but will refuse entry to citizens from countries with high infection rates until July 15.
    Once your holiday has been cancelled, you should be able to amend it or request a refund.
    I think TUI will have to make an announcement soon.
    We are booked to depart on 12th June - 2 weeks tomorrow - and so far they have not cancelled our holiday officially, although with the information coming out of Greece there's no way they could take a plane full of Brits to Crete in 2 weeks time..
