Frequently asked questions
Questions to settle before purchase
Does every travel insurance policy cover missed ferries?
No. Coverage varies by policy wording, cause of delay, minimum delay, documentation, and whether the ferry or transfer qualifies as a covered connection.
Are snorkeling, scooters, or hiking automatically covered?
Not necessarily. Review activity, vehicle, licensing, equipment, altitude, water-sport, and alcohol-related exclusions before purchase.
Is AirHelp travel insurance?
No. AirHelp is a separate flight-disruption support service. It does not replace medical, cancellation, interruption, baggage, or evacuation coverage.
