What Trip Cancellation / Interruption Coverage
Is Available For Terrorist Incidents?
Terrorism coverage means you can cancel or interrupt your trip if a Terrorist Incident happens within a certain number of days of your trip's scheduled departure date.
Terrorism coverage does not include a government mandate (ie - all planes are grounded). One of travel insurance's exclusions says "Any government regulation or prohibition".
Important: The wording below is the actual wording from each of the providers' own Certificates of Coverage. We don't have a hidden agenda to steer you to one company over another.
You will find a brief summary of the Terrorism benefits below. Please refer to the applicable policy's Certificate of Coverage or Evidence of Benefits for the complete policy wording.
