Given the current situation, travel suppliers may be waiving cancellation/change fees. Be sure to contact your travel provider first to see if they will allow you to cancel your original booking and/or apply a credit towards future travel. Coverage is only available for non-refundable expenses.

If you do have a non-refundable expense claim, the insurer is focusing on helping customers with urgent and immediate travel issues as a priority. We ask that only customers who had planned on travelling in the next 3 weeks contact the insurer for assistance at this time. Those not travelling in the next 3 weeks, we ask that you please wait until after April 15th to contact the insurer for assistance.
