What to do when your trip is cancelled

You’re packed and ready to go for your holiday when you get a call saying your tour has been cancelled because not enough people are going.

Learn how travel insurance may help if you have to unexpectedly cancel your planned trip, allowing you to claim back your non-refundable expenses.

Can I increase the cancellation benefit limit on my policy?

A default limit for Benefit 2.1 Cancellation is automatically included in your cover unless you make a selection. However, you are able to choose different levels of cover from the amounts available to you when you purchase your policy. Any benefit limit selected by you will be shown on your Certificate of Insurance. The benefit limit shown will be the most we will pay for all claims under Benefit 2.1 Cancellation.
