Financial protection & travel insurance
Offering flexible cancellation policies is a good way to protect our customers’ investments and provide peace of mind during uncertain economic times. It allows our customers to change their plans if their financial situation changes or if unexpected circumstances arise.
It’s important to understand that flexible cancellation policies offered by us are not the same as travel insurance. While these policies may provide some financial protection, they may not cover all possible scenarios, such as trip interruptions, medical emergencies, or other unforeseen events. Therefore, it’s essential to purchase comprehensive travel insurance that covers your specific needs, including trip cancellation, medical expenses, and other potential risks, before embarking on your journey.
