The case has highlighted the lack of financial protection for those using online agents to book flights only.
Customers who had booked flights and accommodation from an agent were protected by the package holiday rules, as were those who bought flights directly from the Thai Airways website and paid by credit card.
However, those who used an online travel agent to book flights but organised their accommodation separately will have to claim on their travel insurance – and will be successful only if they bought one of the 50% of policies that pay out in such circumstances.
Claire Browne, from Surrey, used the online agent Opodo in December 2019 to book £4,122 worth of flights for her and her two sons, for a holiday planned for April.

The Good Doctor Season 4, Episode 10 has now aired on ABC, and saw the St. Bonaventure fall victim to a cyber-attack. Dr. Olivia Jackson (played by Summer Brown), however, had very different problems of her own after she was fired from the hospital.
Well, technically she deliberately
got herself fired as she no longer wanted to be a doctor, and was looking for her way out. In the episode, titled Decrypt (streaming from February 23 on Hulu) she found it via a cancer survivor turned famous philanthropist (Kurt Yaeger) who she helped to treat.
The Good Doctor might want to change its name to
The Woke Doctor. After previous episodes this season supported Black Lives Matter and abortion, Monday night’s episode, “Irresponsible Salad Bar Practices,” offered the double whammy of a pregnant trans man and systemic racism in medicine.
The episode began with trans man Rio Gutierrez (played by trans actor Emmett Preciado) at the hospital to receive treatment for a pituitary tumor. Rio tells the doctors about being engaged to a man, while the doctors bemoan the “messed-up software” that correctly records Rio’s gender as female.
Dr. Reznick: Your primary care doctor was right. The mass is on the smaller side. We ll confirm with the new images, but it should be manageable with medication. No surgery needed.
