Did you ever get sorted with your ESTAs by the way? Hope all is OK

If your flight from the UK to the EU is on a UK owned carrier then Brexit will not affect your journey. Under international rights a carrier is entitled to go from their home country non-stop to a destination country.

If your flight is on a carrier that is owned in your destination country then there is also no problem.

The problem could arise if you were flying, for example, from the UK to anywhere else in the EU that isn't Ireland on Ryanair. Or if you flight were UK owned but stopped in a 3rd country on its way to your destination.

Our flights and safety is currently covered by the EASA. Come the end of march, without something in place we will not be able to fly anywhere.

So a no deal brexit means not flights.

This is the reason. Travel Agents are not going to be able to sustain a currency crash when they accept GBP as payment, and are required to pay services in USD, hence looking to pass on associated costs.

I am sure it will all work out one way or another
