Holiday cancellation

No one books a holiday expecting to have to cancel at the last minute, but of course we never know what is waiting round the corner, do we?

There are many reasons why you may need to cancel your trip. A few examples are: you or a close relative fall ill and are unable to travel, you may be called up for jury service and are unable to be released from it, you are made redundant, or the Foreign Commonwealth Office advise against all travel to your holiday destination.

That is why it is always advisable to buy holiday cancellation insurance when you book your trip. It doesn’t matter if you are just renting a cottage in the Lake District, Cruising the Med, or jetting off to the USA, if you suddenly had to cancel your trip you would lose money.

Holiday cancellation insurance will pay the costs of transport charges, loss of accommodation and additional travel expenses that you have paid or agreed to pay and that you cannot recover from any other source should you have to cancel your trip due to:

  • the sudden and unforeseen death, injury or illness of:
  • you or a friend with whom you are travelling.
  • a close relative who lives in your home country.
  • a close business associate who lives in your home country.
  • a friend who lives abroad and with whom you were intending to temporarily stay.
  • it will also protect you should you be called up for jury service or as a witness in a Court of Law,
  • if you are suddenly given notice of redundancy.
  • or, if you are in H M Forces, and your leave orders are suddenly cancelled.
Holidaysafe cancellation cover starts as soon as you pay your premium

There are additional savings to be made by considering an annual multi-trip travel insurance policy. If you and your partner take more than two breaks a year, this policy could save you money! Not only does it provide cover for every trip you make during a twelve month period (and that includes those long weekends in the UK), but you and your partner can travel independently of each other! This type of policy is extremely useful if you happen to own a holiday home either in the UK or abroad.
