Closed airports and suspended flights can change your vacation plans. We may provide coverage for a flight disruption if your policy is effective before the event’s foreseeable date. Please check your confirmation of coverage and policy wording to understand your coverage, as each of our plans can differ.
Events listed on this page will reflect the past one year. Any events outside of that timeframe can be located on the archive page.
