Travel Delay provides reimbursement for costs, including meals and accommodations, when a trip is delayed for a covered reason. Tin Leg policies provide Travel Delay coverage when a “hazard” impacts an insured’s trip. “Hazard” includes any delay of a common carrier, including inclement weather.
All Tin Leg policies include coverage under the Travel Delay benefit for the following expenses:
- a) any prepaid, unused, non-refundable land, air, or water accommodations;
- b) any reasonable additional expenses incurred (meals, accommodations, local Transportation, and telephone calls);
- c) an economy fare from where the travelers trip was delayed to where the traveler can resume their covered trip; or
- d) a one-way economy fare to return the traveler to their originally scheduled return destination.
These expenses are eligible for reimbursement on a one-time basis up to the maximum amount shown in the Schedule of Benefits. In order to be eligible for Travel Delay coverage, the insured must be delayed for a specified amount of time.
