Simply put , if you cancel you might not got anything back. If you alter the dates you will pay a fee. If the carrier cancels you are entitled to a full refund .Or you can rebook to full value of cost.
The accommodation is a different matter.

I go out to my place in Spain so it is just flight and car for me.

Have you accommodation booked.

No. I'm just intrigued by how checking in online, well in advance, works to the punters advantage.

I should imagine it is information for the carrier. I also don't know the situation in each of your destinations. Checking in cannot harm you. get some consumer advice before doing anything you regret.
Good luck

Thanks. I'm not too fussed as I'm pretty sure I'll be sorted. Just wondered if checking in gave it a belt and braces approach.
I'll update as and when though, as it may be useful to others.

From everything I have read or listened to ,the losers have been those who have cancelled or altered plans. Sit tight.

Here's one to mull over for people with kids at school..
Lets say restrictions are lifted 1st September for all travel, would you take your child out of school in term time in order to holiday and what do you reckon the repercussions by the law would be ?..

I had a similar conversation with the wife a couple of weeks ago. I think you will see people having their summer holidays between October and December....in the Caribbean etc
 
Daughter just received an email from OnTheBeach saying they were to afford her another 7 days grace to pay final balances due whilst they contacted Cock O' Leary for an update to his flight status. Well done OTB and god willing they do not pass on a single bean to that scurrilous dog from the Emerald Isle. I read that he said his punters could have a refund only when Covid 19 has been laid to rest. He's cheap and of that I cannot digress, but hes a ****. And if there is anything worse in this blessed world than a **** then it's a cheap **** and for that reason I will not never ever ever fly Ryanair again! Unless it's cheap : /

I fly to Alicante, though the new covera airport is nearer. The place is between Lorca and A'guilas. Old rundown place, but with views to die for.
You know Murcia?

I had a phone call from Jet2 today about the holiday that was cancelled about 3 weeks ago. They originally asked us not to phone and they would write in date order. We decided that we would allow them the time requested and we were surprised that they rang to say that the refund was on its way. In the bank by Friday.

We have just been refunded today by Jet2 for flights cancelled going to Spain last Friday 24th

Easyjet are letting you alter flights up to April 21 2021 without a fee.
I just changed two cos I doubt we’ll be going anywhere this year without all sorts of hold ups and restrictions.
 
Anyone had their 'Credit Voucher/Note ' from TUI yet ?.

I’m braced to speak to TUI this week.

Due to fly on August 11 but this week is the date the balance is due.

It’s a big family holiday with kids and grandparents and some are very worried about going and the general feeling it to either cancel or attempt to shift it to next year.

Given that the UK government has advised against all but essential travel and the Canaries are advising not to come - would that carry enough weight to ask for our deposit back?
