In light of the most recent MH tragedy the risk of a collapse seems significantly higher. My condolences go out to family and friends of the passengers and crew.
Whilst I understand that this was an accident that could have happened to any airline, I think many around will be less forgiving. This is reinforced by the news reports already out focusing on fling there and the fact that airlines such as QF and Delta, who barely fly in that part of the world, are swiftly saying they avoid the area.
I thought this thread could outline those TIs that cover insolvency or collapse of an airline and what steps people were taking to ensure they still managed to get to their future destinations where they have booked on MH.
I'll start as I'm tossing up some options for a late Dec J award flight to BKK.
I don't think TID cover this situation so I will check the PDS. Used Amex MR-> Enrich so will also check that PDS. Also thinking of booking a refundable (minus fee) J Thai fare as backup.
Any other thoughts or situations?
