So is there a way to book a holiday without getting stung?The director of campaigns for consumer advocacy group Choice, Erin Turner, said holidaymakers should read a company's cancellation policy carefully.
"If you want to know if you can get a refund if you can't travel, then have a look at that," Ms Bell said. Travellers may be offered credit instead of a full refund, which may be unhelpful if borders are still closed, Ms Turner said."A lot of people are refunding if that's what people want," she said.
Experts say travellers should read their cancellation policies carefully because pandemics are not covered by travel insurance.
I honestley think the ABC saves its' most retarded tweets for late at night
So that when your holiday gets cancelled not only are you out the money but the bank gets a generous 15-20% fee on the free money they created. Mmm Great advice
Generally if you book to go somewhere when there's a problem and travel gets banned because of that problem then you're on your own
Next holiday?
Nope, only fools use credit cards
