Travel insurance
Evening all,
Another question for the collective knowledge that is locost builders.
Buying plane tickets with a credit card. As I understand it, if the flights is cancelled I should be able to claim money back from the credit card
company. Is this right?
Would it also cover tickets bought for someone else bought on my card if I wasn't travelling with them?
Lastly are there any insurance policies which cover flight cancellation?
Thanks,

I would have thought ,if the flight is cancelled, the airline will refund the cost no need to claim off your credit card (Unless the airline
won't pay up). I don't think it would matter who you bought the tickets for

I think first off it's the airline you should be chasing. If they don;t play ball, then go to the credit card company.
Not 100% sure, but I think if what you bought on the card was over £100 then they should cough up, whoever you bought it for.

Not if the airline goes broke, credit card is the safest way
