Re: It's Stopped
For anyone flying abroad in the near future i've just read that Aviva Insurance are introducing an "add on" to there normal travel insurance which will cover people for cancellations/delays etc caused by the Volcanic ash problem. Its coming in on June 1st apparently.
Dont know how much the add on is yet, but ive just tried a sample online quote for their standard travel insurance for 2 weeks in europe and it comes out at £33 for one person, which is pretty expensive, bearing in mind my online annual multi-trip policy only cost me £17.
I'm not sure how many other companies guarantee to cover this problem, and what the premiums are like, but it could be worth it for peace of mind for those people who book DIY trips.
Best Regards - Taggy
