What is Financial Default?

Financial Default can reimburse a traveler’s trip costs if they need to cancel because of a complete suspension of operations by their travel supplier due to financial circumstances, whether or not bankruptcy is filed.

Financial Default coverage is included by some policies under the Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption benefits. Depending on the provider, this benefit may be time-sensitive and will only be available for 10-21 days after the initial trip deposit date. Additionally, there may be a 10 to 21-day wait period after the policy is purchased before this benefit goes into effect.

Please be aware that coverage and eligibility requirements for this benefit differ by policy. The tables below show the providers that offer Financial Default coverage.
