Cancellation insurance reimburses certain non-refundable costs if a reason listed in the contract occurs. Not every reason. Describe your trip; an authorized person explains what is covered.
Cancellation and interruption, two situations
Before departure or during the trip: the coverage and its conditions differ.
Only the written reasons are covered
Illness, death of a relative, certain unforeseen events: each contract lists its own and defines them.
Pre-existing conditions
A health condition known before purchase can limit coverage. The conditions and the required stability period deserve a careful read.
When to buy
Some coverage depends on the purchase date relative to the trip deposit; check before you book.
What your credit card does not always tell you
Included coverage has its own conditions; compare them with the contract you are considering.
Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel “for any reason”?
Only if the contract expressly provides for it, which is rare and subject to conditions.
Do I have to buy at the same time as the trip?
It depends on the contract; find out before you book.
Is the request free?
Yes, and without obligation.
