Flight delays can happen to anyone. And the impact of having your holiday plans go awry, even before you’ve left the UK, can be big.

That’s why every Trusted Travel Insurance policy automatically includes Flight Delay cover.

If your flight is delayed by three hours or more, you’ll receive a £50 payout, sent directly to your designated UK bank account. There are no lengthy claim forms to fill out, just support for you and your loved ones when you need it most.

You can spend your payout however you like. Whether that’s relaxing in an airport lounge, enjoying a meal, covering extra parking charges, or using it towards an overnight hotel stay. With Trusted Insurances, the choice and the peace of mind is yours.

Insurance you can depend on

Our Flight Delay cover is included with your Trusted Travel Policy. And there’s no need to submit a claim when you return home.

The cover is only applicable to the lead policyholder, for one single journey.

To activate your cover, simply register your details using the link in your confirmation email or via the Delay OK website.

This does not affect your legal right to claim compensation or assistance directly from your airline under UK or EU Regulation 261/2004.
