Meanwhile CEO of the Australian Travel Industry Association, Dean Long, said impacted flights would be held in other countries until it is safe to leave.
“Those flights will be held in those countries for as long as it needs to be to be safe,” Long said.
“They’ll then be put back on those planes after those crew have been rested and moved to their final destination.”
“If you’re travelling in the next 24 or 72 hours, do not cancel.
“The airline or your travel agent will be in contact with you if your flight is cancelled.
“If you don’t want to travel, you get a full cash refund, and if not, the Airline has the responsibility to put you on another plane to get you to where you need to go to.”
