Boost Cancellation Insurance
Don’t let your holiday cost exceed your cancellation cover.
What is Boost Cancellation Insurance?
At Just Travel Cover, we understand the importance of cancellation cover, which can help should something go wrong before your holiday, meaning you need to cancel*.
The amount of cover you need depends on the cost of your holiday, and our policies have different limits, meaning you can choose what’s best for you.
Standard policies range from no cancellation cover at all, (if you’re travelling tomorrow, you might decide you don’t need cancellation cover), right up to £12,500pp.
For more luxury, high-value holidays, we know you might need more cancellation cover that the main policy provides.
That’s why we have introduced “Boost” a facility increase the amount of cancellation cover on the policy that best meets your needs.
Boost is only available over the phone on eligible Single Trip Travel Insurance policies.
Who Is Boost Cancellation Cover For?
If you’re planning the holiday of a lifetime, be it a world cruise, multi-destination trip or a safari, the standard amount of cancellation cover might not provide enough cover.
Boosting your cancellation cover helps protect the full cost of your holiday should something happen to mean you need to cancel*.
What Does Boost Cancellation Include?
- Up to £25,000 cover per person
- £50,000 policy limit
- No excess
- Available with eligible Single Trip policies
- Designed for higher-value holidays
Do I Need to Boost My Cancellation?
Knowing whether you need additional cancellation cover can be answered with a simple question:
Does your Travel Insurance cover the full cost of your holiday if you have to cancel?
If you don’t think it will or you’re in any doubt, it’s best to boost your existing cover. You can do so easily by calling us on the number below.
What is cancellation cover?
Cancellation cover is a key part of a Travel Insurance policy, providing financial protection if you need to cancel your holiday unexpectedly due to:
- Sudden illness (whether arising from a declared pre-existing medical condition or another illness)
- Accidental injury which prevents you from travelling
- The sudden loss of a family member
- Someone in your travel party becoming unable to travel due to sudden illness
- Redundancy
- Being called for jury service or to attend court as a witness
If one of these circumstances were to happen, your cancellation policy should cover pre-booked transport or transfers, accommodation, and other non-refundable expenses such as pre-booked tours or excursions.
Boost Cancellation FAQs
How does Boost Cancellation work?
If a Cancellation/Curtailment claim is submitted and accepted on your main Travel Insurance policy, you can then claim the remaining loss under Boost.
To claim under Boost Cancellation, a settlement is required from the core insurance policy before a claim can be made.
Claims made to Boost Cancellation must be submitted within 31 days of receiving settlement of your core policy.
What is the maximum cover available?
Our standard Travel Insurance policies will cover up to £12,500pp, although you can choose to take any* policy that meets your needs, and “Boost” the cancellation element, up to £25,000 per person, with an overall policy limit of £50,000.
*The core policy must include a minimum of £1,000 cancellation cover.
Can I add Boost later?
You can “Boost” your policy within the first 14 days after purchasing your main policy.
Is there an age limit?
Yes, maximum age limit is 79.
Can I buy Boost online?
No, you can only add “Boost Cancellation” over the phone.
You can compare prices online to see which policy best meets your needs, and then call us to review the options of adding Boost to any policy with a minimum of £1000 cancellation cover.
I've already got Insurance. Can I Boost that?
If you have bought a Travel Insurance policy from Just Travel Cover, you can call us to increase the amount of cancellation cover on your policy with “Boost: Cancellation”. Subject to Terms and Conditions.
If you have Insurance elsewhere, but need cancellation cover, we still may be able to help, via a separate “Top Up Cancellation” product.
