Hi  Booked outward flight on Wizair to Israel. Return already been cancelled by Easyjet. Wizair wont do anything because their flight is flying but no non Israeli citizens are allowed in country currently so cant fly there. Would be stranded at airport.

    Do you have travel insurance that might cover you if the FCO advisory is still in place on the date you are due to travel?

    thanks for replying. its not FCO its the Israeli end which wont allow uk citizens in.Wizair probably have an empty flight as no uk citizens can go and Israelis havent been able to fly out of country.Insurance company being difficult plus I have an excess which makes it not worth bother. Prob have to cancel and take 80 euro hit so frustrating rgards

    If an 80 euro hit is the worst thing to happen to you as a result of this pandemic then you are doing very well. 
    Flight may not be empty anyway as Israeli citizens in the UK will be allowed back IN.
