Holidaymakers who were given a credit note for trips cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic have been issued a stark warning.
A total of £85m worth of vouchers remains unspent, and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has said they will soon lose financial protection. Any issued between March 10, 2020 and December 19, 2021 are covered by the Atol scheme, which means holders will not lose out if the company they booked with goes bust.
But this protection expires on September 30 this year. Credit vouchers can be put towards the cost of a new holiday or exchanged for cash.
