Name: Emma Jones
Job: Trade Marketing Executive
Scoop: I would have just returned from a 2 weeks holiday in Bali, instead i'm stuck trying to workout how to rebook or refund my trip but travel guru Simon Calder has been doing Facebook live's helping our readers with solutions to their difficult travel situations. If you've got a question, he's the man to ask.
I also had a little travel fix by virtually visiting Amsterdam, you guys should try too.
