The wording has definitely changed to “can book between” and the dates are 12th June to 30th November.

Thanks op for the info.

Dotb, I’m kind of in the same position I think, I had a flight booked for May, changed this to September 2020, which I believe I can now cancel for a full refund due to lgw-lhr change. I don’t want to go this September as nothing has really got any better and it’s not going to be the holiday I would normally enjoy. However, as I’ve changed once, I’m not sure I can change again, I only paid £280 per ticket, so if I could change it to September 2021 at the same price I would be happy with that!

Looks like a long wait on the phone to VA is imminent.

So if we had an indirect flight from lhr to mco would a direct flight lhr to mco be classed as the same route?

I would think so as it only says about paying the fare difference if you change either airport? I think they need to look at this and give more details as at the minute it’s all a bit vague.Thats why I came on here this morning to ask as the way the page is laid out is a bit confusing, why not have the dates next to the options like it was a few weeks ago?

I was thinking of booking a trip to Florida with Virgin direct for this November.
I have read it that if I change my mind I can rebook for another date up until 2022 for free?

I read it that you would pay the fare difference after November 2020 up to November 2020 free amendments and no price change...I was tempted until I realised we would have to go before November which just wouldn't work... It may be my device that is bringing the website up weird though.

Would it be possible for someone to post the link so we are definitely looking at the same info, Thanks

I moved my May 20 reward flights to jan 21 and had to pay the difference in tax. About 25 quid for 2 returns in premium

I had a look at april and the flights are over £5000 more for a family of 5 this would be the extra fare difference required for me to use an open ticket seems a false economy unless I am reading it wrong?
