FAQ
Insurance must be concluded within 3 working days from the payment for the first travel service. If you purchased the travel services less than 15 days before the departure (i.e. "last minute" tours), the insurance must be concluded on the date of payment for the services. Bookings by credit cards are considered to be payments.
Trip cancellation insurance provides coverage in case you need to suddenly cancel a reserved flight ticket, accommodation or a tour. The reasons may include, for example, your serious acute illness or injury that requires hospitalization, death of your closest relative or extensive damage to your residence. Depending on the selected insurance option, there is 0% or 20% deductible of the cancellation fees.
If you suddenly need to cancel a tour that has already been paid, notify your travel agent (at least by telephone) and report the cancellation of the trip online in the section "Make a claim" of this website. Do not forget to attach a travel contract and other required documents so we can settle the claim in time.
Trip cancellation insurance lasts until you use the travel service that you paid for or until you cross the borders of the Czech Republic. This means, for example, check-in at the airport or crossing the border when you travel abroad by your own vehicle.
Deductible is a specific amount or percentage you contribute to each claim settled. For example, if your deductible is 20 %, on a claim amounting to CZK 10,000, we will pay you CZK 8,000.
