A family whose holiday was forcibly cancelled at the last minute got their money plus extra after sending bailifs to Luton Airport.
Russell Quirk, 55, decided to take action after Wizz Air cancelled the family's scheduled flight just three hours before take-off. The cancellation left them £3,900 out of pocket after Russell was forced to buy a new, last-minute flight to Portugal, despite the fact his seats were initially booked four months in advance.
The family feared that they would miss out on their summer holiday and be down £6,000 due to hotel and travel costs. Russell, who was travelling with his three daughters and his wife, only found out his flights with Wizz Air were cancelled after an email was sent to him three hours prior.
