We are due to fly to Vegas beginning of Nov and back from LA 10 days later. With the current restrictions (and unlikely to change) I am worried that if our flights are still running (which is looks like they are), we won't be offered a refund. Has anyone experienced this or was/is anyone due to fly to America?? and what is the best way to deal with this if anyone has been through it?

Thanks

  • Did you buy a package holiday? If so, you'll likely just be refunded by Virgin as the USA isn't allowing entry to non-citizens at the moment.

    Yep, we booked it all through virgin holidays back in Jan. Fingers crossed that is the case! I have been reading a lot about people being refused refunds because the flights are still running (even though we can't get into the country) 

    Thanks!

    That would only apply to flight only bookings with Virgin Atlantic, although in the most part they would let you move the flight to another date.
