More Flexibility When Holiday Plans Change

Plans don't always go as expected. Safe Travels CFAR™ gives eligible UK travellers added flexibility when they need to cancel a holiday for a reason that may not be covered by their standard travel insurance.

Sometimes there isn't an emergency or unexpected event. Your plans may simply change. Safe Travels CFAR™ allows eligible UK travellers to cancel their holiday for almost any reason, subject to the service terms, and receive up to 75% reimbursement for eligible unused, non-refundable trip costs.

Flights, accommodation, tours and other prepaid holiday costs can add up quickly. If your plans change, Safe Travels CFAR™ can help protect eligible non-refundable holiday costs that you cannot recover from your travel provider or travel insurance provider.

Safe Travels CFAR™ provides more flexibility when life or your plans change. As long as you meet the service requirements, including cancelling at least 48 hours before your scheduled departure, you can request reimbursement for eligible unused, non-refundable costs.

CFAR vs Standard Holiday Cancellation Cover

Standard travel insurance typically provides cancellation cover when you need to cancel for a reason covered by your policy. Safe Travels CFAR™ works alongside your existing travel insurance and gives you additional flexibility to cancel for almost any reason.

With Safe Travels CFAR™, eligible UK travellers can receive up to 75% reimbursement for eligible unused, non-refundable trip costs after first requesting any available refunds or reimbursements from their travel provider and travel insurance provider.

Safe Travels CFAR™ is a cancellation service, not an insurance policy or a replacement for standard travel insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much money will I be able to get back?

You will receive up to 75% of your total trip costs which you cannot get back from anywhere else such as your travel provider (e.g. airline, hotel, tour operator) or your main travel insurance provider.

Do I need travel insurance first?

Yes. CFAR works alongside an existing travel insurance policy and cannot be purchased on its own.
