All types of accommodation can be accompanied by separate trip cancellation or curtailment insurance.
This insurance covers events that make it impossible to take leave due to serious illness, accident or death of the participant or a relative. Details and any exclusions can be found on the insurer's website.
The total amount of compensation is limited to € 12,000 per policy and the insured's deductible is 10%. Upon cancellation of the tour, the travel agency will issue a confirmation of the amount of cancellation fees charged. The participant will submit this certificate together with a doctor's certificate and the relevant form to the insurance company, which will then pay 90% of the cancellation fees.
