"If you booked with a travel agent they'll offer another alternative or a full refund, but they'll keep you posted with the latest information.

It will be resolved very quickly and then flights should be allowed to fly.

If someone decides to cancel to fly in a couple of weeks the tour operators are in their rights to charge the cancellation fee."
