A holiday with a friend is two days away, friend texts to say she may be too ill to travel but wants to wait until the travel day to see how she feels.

Another friend can step in but name change needs done 48 hrs pre-travel....so called sick frend will not respond to text or calls.....please advise

Oh that's a tough one! Can you contact travel company and explain situation and see if you can get a name change extension?

Go round and see for yourself how ill they are and then you can decide

How did it turn out?

I suppose your sick friend can be ill on holiday just as much as at home if you went that way.

If the friend is too sick to travel now she won't be fully better in two days and prob will either end up making you sick or just not enjoying herself. Change the name and bring other friend and reschedule a trip with sick friend for another time

If shs's a REAL friend she'll tell ur daughter to go on ahead n make other arrangements !!! Otherwise I'd go over to her house myself and tie her up with all that rope you have and leave her in the attic !!!! Then your daughter goes off on her holiday and more importantly , you get to have ur fun !!!!!

Why doesn't the non sick friend see if she can add her name to the holiday. Therefore if the sick friend can't go your daughter will still have company.

It's an idea but the cost of a new holiday is double what the girls paid when they booked it in March....the step in friend would benefit from the low cost sick friend's deal x

Not being funny but she doesn't sound much of a friend

Unless she's a hospital case holidays are always a good idea

Does she have holiday insurance? Might be worth checking if it covers cancellation due to illness of a travelling companion. At least then she would get money back and could re-book for another time, and potentially with a more reliable friend!
