Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised and rishworth will recovery my salary and get my wife and me airline travel home, but I doubt it. I will update as this progresses.
surprising or not so... you are employed by the agency not the actual airline. Put this simply RIL should have been insured again airline bankruptcy or offset this from their finances, giving you regular two months notice etc..? I know this sounds fair and from fantasy world but shouldnt be it this way?
