Did you get the Travel Insurance (100% Coverage) or CFAR (60% Coverage) in initial email and/or by your online booking channel? *See calculator for exclusions.
Either of these would cover the trip on your end based on the situation.
We can help you process the paperwork, they just may need a copy of the Dr’s note, ER receipt or death certification for verification, but you can send that to them directly.
Your CC you booked with may have travel Insurance! Call to check and we can provide any paperwork they may need.
If you chose no coverage . . .
We can try and rebook it and make up the difference minus the non-refundable cc transaction & processing fees from stripe and your channel partner.
We may reduce the minimum night stay to increase the chances of re-booking.
Once their trip dates clear 14 days after departure, we can then begin the process of balancing out and settling the reversals of the amounts that would be refunded.
