A missed plane can bring misery and unforeseen expense to any traveller, but now Missed Flight Cover from No Exclusions Limited offers valuable protection to the alpine holidaymaker with a free seat on the next available flight – winter sport equipment included!
Independent research by the Ski Club of Great Britain shows that even in the current economic climate, over one million Britons indulged their passion last year for winter sports. With the average cost of a ski holiday at £717 per person, every hour on the slopes is valuable and it is estimated that 72 per cent of skiers choose to fly to their resorts in preference to other, slower forms of transport, to maximise this time.
A missed flight will also mean significant unforeseen holiday costs. No Exclusions own airline research found that a same day flight purchases can cost up to three times more than an advance booking on the same flight.
No Exclusions’ new policy will bring extra peace of mind to winter sports travellers allowing their ski holiday to be salvaged without unexpected expense; in particular the re-booking of their flight ticket and any pre-booked extras including sports equipment, luggage, seat reservations, taxes, administration and credit card fees. Missed Flight Cover is available for just £7.50 single leg or £9.50 return, alongside a flight booking on easyJet.com.
Andrew Lothian, No Exclusions CEO, commented: “A ski holiday represents a considerable investment and every day on the slopes counts, with lessons, equipment hire and lift passes often pre-paid. For only £9.50, protecting the cost of flying you and your equipment out to and back from the slopes, Missed Flight Cover makes complete sense.”
How It Works …
Simply by registering their claim at the airline sales desk within four hours after the (missed) flight’s scheduled departure, the policyholder will receive immediate assistance, from No Exclusion’s dedicated helpline, to re-book their flight or obtain a refund for the full value – including any flight related services, such as easyJet’s allocated seating,speedy boarding, hold luggage, credit card and admin fees.
