I booked this trip 3 months ago when I had my previous job and had the time off approved with that job. I don&#8217;t have any approved time off for this, but I might be able to get the time off approved. Are there any policies that allow me to get refunded if I have to cancel if I cannot get the time off approved? I&#8217;m leaving on my trip in 5 months, but won&#8217;t get the answer until 2 weeks before the trip because my company wants to see what the workload is by then.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Unfortunately, none of our plans will cover you right now because you don&#8217;t have any approved time off for your trip.
