Missed connection cover

Missed Connection cover can be useful if your cruise, coach or rail holiday starts from an overseas port or station, or you're taking more than one pre-booked flight to reach your holiday destination.

Our Missed connection option extends your travel insurance to include cover for additional expenses if you miss a connecting flight, ferry, cruise ship, train, or motor vehicle as a result of a delay to your initial international outbound transport.

Ideal for cruise, coach or rail holidays that start from an overseas location

Missed Connection cover can be useful if your cruise, coach or rail holiday starts from an overseas port or station, or you are taking more than one pre-booked flight to reach your holiday destination.

For example:

You are taking a cruise to Alaska which departs from Vancouver. Your international outbound flight from the UK to Vancouver is delayed, by 5 hours due to a mechanical breakdown, which causes you to miss the departure of your cruise.

Under our Missed Connection cover, you could claim up to £500 per person for additional transport and accommodation costs to enable you to join the ship at the next port.

Missed connection cover up to £500

You can make a claim for Missed Connection if your initial international outbound journey was delayed by more than 3 hours due to adverse weather, mechanical breakdown or technical fault, causing you to miss your connecting aircraft, watercraft, train or motor vehicle.

If you miss your connecting aircraft, watercraft, train or motor vehicle, for an insured reason, you will be able to claim up to £500 to cover costs incurred for additional transport and accommodation to enable you to join your connecting aircraft, watercraft, train or motor vehicle or to reach your final pre-booked destination.

Terms and conditions apply: The full terms and conditions of this cover are available to view when you are choosing which options to add to your policy. They will also be sent to you when you purchase cover.

Missed connection cover can be added to any of our Silver, Gold or Platinum travel insurance policies.
