Coronavirus: Family plead for refund on trip to Europe

Covid-19 has turned the travel industry upside down, but should travel agencies be allowed to go back on promises of refunds?

Official advice says Government-imposed travel restrictions may override contracts but a lawyer says in this case, the family should get what they're owed.
