Emergency or Urgent Assistance

In the case of unforeseen circumstances that may prevent you from being able to travel on your scheduled arrangements, both prior to departure or once travel has commenced, your insurance provider is your first point of contact.

Changes to your itinerary can result in out-of-pocket expenses. Your insurance provider have a dedicated team available 24/7 who will advise the best course of action in line with your policy cover. Making changes without consulting your insurance company can result in charges that may not be recoverable.

Remember to have your policy details handy for a swift response. Save these numbers offline before you embark on your journey, ensuring you’re prepared if required.
