Show Notes
During the past couple of years, you might have had to cancel a few holidays, and for many of us that means we received flight credits for those trips we simply couldn't take.
In fact, so many of us are in this position, it turns out that the airlines are currently sitting on billions of dollars of our money - so why does it seem so difficult to try and book a new trip using these credits now things are getting back to normal?
The Quicky speaks to a woman who got stuck with flight credits early on in the pandemic that she still hasn't been able to use, a travel expert, and a consumer affairs guru to find out if and how you can ever actually get your money's worth.
