What's you guys thoughts/anyone asking for a refund on their BKK ticket?
I had air tickets to LAX-DOH-BKK-DOH-LAX departing in late November for 1 week trip.
I used Orbitz to book the air tickets, so I just called them to cancel the air tickets and request a full refund due to involuntary change (travel restrictions imposed by authorities)
I also told the Orbitz agent about the "Travel with confidence" policy.
It took a while for the agent to confirm the policy, but she was able to cancel the air tickets and request a full refund.
I am not 100% sure if the refund request went through properly until I actually get the full refund, though...
