Sometimes things happen that are outside of your control and result in you needing to make a change to your trip. If your trip is interrupted, you may be able to reclaim costs you incur as a result.
We may cover you for reasonable additional travel expenses up to the standard of your original booking, which are attributed directly to an Insured Event that results in your trip being interrupted.
Our policies cover three ways your trip could be interrupted:
Please note: Trip Interruption cover is only available with our Explorer Plan and can offer cover if your trip is interrupted after you leave your home.
Cover is provided for insured events when they are sudden, unforeseen, avoidable, outside of your control, and occur after you have been issued your Certificate of Insurance.
There are 9 insured events for Trip Interruption cover, which you can find in the Policy Wording.
If your flight has been overbooked and you are waiting to be put on another flight, we may cover you for costs associated with delays that are longer than 12 hours. This may include cover toward the cost of meals and refreshments, up to the limits shown on the Summary of Cover.
