I am looking for travel insurance that covers missed connections or Cancelled flights, but have not had any luck in finding a policy that covers these risks any more.
I have about a dozen flights on an upcoming trip, many with connections. All connections have 2 or more hours layover, but I would like to have cover in case of missed connections, especially since a lot of the flights are in the winter in the US.
All the flights I have booked are non refundable, so if I have missed a connection I will have to pay full fare for same day tickets on the next flight.
So far, I have had a look at Travel insurance Direct, World Nomads, Allianz, Virgin, HBF, Citibank, Australia Post, Insureandgo, and Woolworths. They either offer no cover or only very limited cover for delays due to unlikely events like Riots or Hijack etc, not for more likely events like mechanical or weather.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Peter.
