ASH CLOUD: Insure2travel Statement

Currently, there is no cover for claims arising from this ash cloud, this is a general stance by all UK insurers.

Cancellation

No cover under this section as insured events are specific and this scenario is not one of these specified events.

Travel Delay and Abandonment

This section excludes claims arising from withdrawal of service temporarily or otherwise of the aircraft on the orders or recommendation of the Civil Aviation Authority. For this reason, cover is not in force as the authorities have grounded/delayed flights.

Policyholders should contact their travel providers as airlines and operators are offering transfers or refunds and costs of additional expenses.

NB. The ABI have called an emergency meeting with insurers to discuss this as it is an extremely unusual event. The outcome of these discussions may very well impact their stance and if/when I have any further update, I'll let you know.

Yours sincerely
