I hope everyone is managing to stay safe!
I'm a bit confused regarding my options for a Virgin Holidays booking cancellation:
- Booked in January 2020 to travel Apri 23rd 2020
- Paid using VS miles and some cash
- Booking has been cancelled by Virgin Holidays (no surprises there)
- Virgin Holidays issued a 'COVID-19 Refund Travel note' for the full amount of the holiday (i.e. total invoiced amount, miles plus cash)
I have a few questions and I wondered if anyone here might be able to answer before I spend half the day on hold...
- I assume the 'COVID-19 Refund Travel note' essentially a credit note, i.e. redeemable against a new holiday booking? I don't have anything that explicitly states it's purpose
- Or is the 'COVID-19 Refund Travel note' a notice of a full refund?
- My online booking at Virgin Holidays says I should receive an email with a 'voucher'. I have not received such an email. There is however a link to a new 'invoice' that turns out to be the 'COVID-19 Refund Travel note'
- Anyone any idea on what my options are for a full refund? And how that works in regards to the miles and cash elements? I'm sure I've read somewhere that the miles I've used to pay are at risk here?
- Anyone else had their Virgin Holiday cancelled that can offer further adivce?
Thanks!
