How Trip Cancellation Travel Insurance Covers Terrorism
Terrorism coverage means you can cancel or interrupt your trip if a Terrorist Incident happens in a city listed on your intinerary within a certain number of days of your trip’s scheduled departure date.
Here’s typical policy wording: “A Terrorist Act which occurs in your Scheduled Trip Departure City or in a city to which you are scheduled to travel while on your Trip, and which occurs within 30 days of your Scheduled Departure Date, provided the city has not experienced a Terrorist Act in the past 30 days prior to the effective date of your coverage. The Terrorist Incident must occur after the Effective Date of Your Trip Cancellation Coverage.”

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”.

No comments or explanations confirm or deny coverage. You need to refer to each plan's policy wording.
PPPS - The Trip Cancellation coverage begins at 12:01 a.m. on the day after the date the policy is purchased. All other coverages begin when you leave home for your trip when your departure date is in the future.
