The company lost the money in cost with no revenue. It isn't deferred revenue.
The question is real. Ask virgin Australia. Someone will lose. But who should it be?
In the U.K. we don’t have chapter 11. So Virgin Atlantic could go that way too. When airlines collapse under U.K. law they cannot continue to fly, even to repatriate.
When you buy something you normally get the product as you pay for it.

Transactions have evolved over the years, but I would maintain I haven't bought anything. I ordered it and they failed to deliver but they took my money in advance in contemplation of completing the contract.

I'd have gone. They cancelled.
