Flights departing against FCO advice

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Help consumers who have lost money with flights that have or are departing when the FCO have advised against all but non essential travel and travel insurance is void. How can the airlines get away with this without offering refunds or a least vouchers

Enforce refunds or other recompense for consumers who have the right not to fly while advice is not to fly and social distancing is still in place. How can you social distance on a plane. Where are out human rights to feel safe? If 300 met in a park and were in close proximity they would be dispersed or arrested so how are airlines allowed to do this?
