A caution that any bookings should be made using a US-based credit card (or a card issued in a country with specific bankruptcy protections). While WP is in Chapter 11 and states that it will continue to operate as usual, there is a risk that it cannot and therefore cannot.

Credit cards provide statutory protection for the passenger and mean an immediate credit should WP cease operations or not be able to operate the specific flight due to bankruptcy.
