Why does Ski insurance matter?

Scheduled airline failure cover will pay out compensation if you have booked your own flights with a scheduled airline that goes out of business.

What does Ski insurance cover?

Cover for scheduled airline failure is not a standard feature of most travel insurance, but it is available in many policies and you should consider whether it is needed if you have booked your own flights for a trip.

Chartered airlines or those operated through tour operators are covered separately by a different compensation scheme.
