Passengers whose flights were cancelled during the coronavirus pandemic are being urged to redeem their travel vouchers before they expire. Millions of pounds of vouchers are yet to be claimed by holidaymakers with airlines including easyJet and British Airways.
According to its most recent figures released in November, easyJet has around £110m in unclaimed vouchers. Although the airline has confirmed that this number will have reduced since then.
International Airlines Group, the parent company of British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, Level and Vueling confirmed that it had €652m (around £579m) in unclaimed vouchers. The figure represents both vouchers issued for cancelled flights and for customers who had the option of receiving a voucher or making a rebooking.
