pay out ? as most policies do not cover an act of god, which includes volcano's erupting am i write xx

Some travel insurance policies are covering for ASH and some are not, you will need to check directly with your insurance provider.

If your airline has cancelled your flight then you will get a full refund from them or the opportunity to re book, therefore no need to claim through your insurance.

Good luck!

I can see problems for those who have managed or are managing to take an alternative means to get home. It was on the news this morning that many Brits who were stuck in Europe have used trains, coaches, cars and ferries to get back to England. Will they have those extra costs refunded too? Because you can bet your bottom dollar they will ask for it as well as flight refunds.

aw ill be gutted if our holiday gets cacelled i 4 weeks,

mind to be honest will get our money back and i can sped it on baby S brthday haha x

if you fly with a EU company they will fly you home
as soon as possible at no charge

but if you booked with a company not in the EU youve had it
your on your own

Thomas Cook are giving a you a refund or change your holiday up till April 2011.

Thats some good advice given when i stayed in the BandB the other day there was a lady waiting to fly to ireland and one to scotland poor things as the BandB was mankey but it was all me and mum could afford when Sdad was in hospital, just heard now some airports may be opening 7am in the morning but that could change .

I think the ash is drifting away or getting lighter, they are opening Scottish and Northern airports tomorrow morning, did see they were hoping to open London tomorrow evening.

People will be claiming for parking fees too, so many have overstayed their parking time. However, I think they are only going to be charged normal rates with no penalties.

Ann.. I hope they dont get ripped off re parking etc. The car parks will have lost money too so I hope they dont rip off everyone.
