We Would Like to change our flights from the 29th March to 30th March but my Insurance would become void because FCO advises not to leave UK until 18th April !!! ( ie the end of the 30 Day FCO Warning )  - I don't think I've really got any choice but to cancel. Any way out Please ?

Cancel immediately. Nobody will be going anywhere for some considerable time.

Which airline?

Many expect to reduce capacity or remain grounded

EasyJet 

It’s a worrying time for all. 

Global Airlines will be busy dealing with this weeks very big problem

Then they will continue through the weeks to follow.   Perhaps just hold on and more information will come to light.

Good luck with all and stay safe

Hi Lee,

I may be missing something here, but if the FCO advises not to leave the UK until 18th April, surely your insurance wil be void whether you fly on the 29th or the 30th March?

There's a distinct possibility that Spain's current 15-day lockdown will be extended and it's no fun.  It doesn't make sense to expose yourselves to risk of infection if the travel is unnecessary.

Both Easyjet and Ryanair are offering a period during which customers can change existing bookings without incurring an admin fee, so probably best to pick a new date after 18th April.

Kind regards,

Kim
