under the circumstances they won't refund your coach ticket, since there literally was nothing any airline could do. It was completely out of their control. Think of how many people would need to be refunded and how much money the airlines were loosing in those days that they couldn't fly those routes.

If they had to refund one person then they would need to refund most, and that would be a hefty amount and in return ticket prices would increase to cover those costs or raise fees.

I heard that the airlines are asking for reimbersment from countries/eu but not sure whats going on there
