To clarify any misunderstandings from the title, the people paid but never actually got to fly, so they (fairly) want their money back.

Worth mentioning Xcor has gone bankrupt, and why they might have trouble getting their money.
Yes, that. And there was always that possibility. I would have hoped someone with $100K to drop would have known better — bankruptcy protection laws didn't just come about in the past few years.
They've gone bankrupt in the old school, pre-modern-bankruptcy-law sense of the word, i.e. they've spent all their money and have none left. Bankruptcy protection laws aren't changing this outcome either way.
Also, there is an incognito / private mode blocker between the click-baity title and the article. :-(
