The dates comments are less helpful. He was already over in Oz before any closures. There was no flights available earlier from the state he was in at the time. His inter-state travel was not allowed. His return (cancelled later anyway) was from another state.

I'm just trying to check if the insurers are trying to stiff him for the £850 difference between his refund and the emergency flight.

The dates are important, if you list the dates asked for you will get advice.
