Many policies exclude cover for strike action as it would be the Airlines responsibility to provide a refund to the customer for a cancelled flight or provide an option to travel on a different date.
Multitrip.com Premier and Premier Plus Cover levels provide cover for strike action which will cover pre-paid accommodation costs, should you be unable to travel out to your destination due to strike or industrial action.
Cover is provided in the event of strike action as follows:
* If your flight is cancelled or delayed for more than 12 hours, it covers additional accommodation and travel costs up to €1,000.
* If your flight is cancelled or delayed for more than 12 hours, then you can claim back up to €1,000 for irrecoverable unused travel and accommodation costs should you cancel.
* Claim back up to €1,000 for accommodation if you have to be moved from your current location or cut your trip short because of flood, earthquake, volcanic eruption etc.
* Covers cancellation or curtailment charges should the Foreign & Common wealth office or World Health Organisation advise against travel to the country or specific you are travelling to.
* Gives you control of the situation and the added security that you have sufficient cover should an airline cancel, delay or re-direct your flight after take-off.
Multitrip.com also provides cover for other situations including extreme bad weather, riots or civil commotion.
Consumers can purchase Travel Disruption cover from €17 on an Annual policy or €9.99 on Single Trip policies.
