Thanks for your comments guys. Unfortunately we are on Ryanair all 11 of us. Problems I have with taking a credit note if we are offered one, is the house and plane tickets are for 11.

This is a one off trip which cannot happen in 12 months time. The villa company have offered us a rebook in 12 months time but if we go Next year there will be only 2 of us rattling around in a 7 bedroom house and we still have a balance to pay which is more than what we usually pay to rent for the 2 of us. Due to several other issues the Oz side cannot come next year.

Just going to wait and see what evolves over the next few weeks.
