Protect your holiday from a no-deal Brexit, from just £17.50*

With the UK political climate in a state of constant flux regarding Brexit, it's understandable that if you have a holiday booked, you could have some concerns about travelling. This is nowhere more apparent than in the event of a no-deal Brexit. A no-deal scenario means that the UK would immediately leave the European Union, with no withdrawal period. For a more in-depth look into Brexit, and its potential impact, see here.

Brexit Disruption Cover is available as an add-on in both single and annual multi-trip policies, for individuals, couples, families and single parent families.

At Holiday Extras, we want to ensure that no matter where and when you're travelling, in the event of a no-deal Brexit, you can have enhanced protection.

This includes:

If you have to cancel or curtail your holiday as a result of:

Cancellation of flights between UK and EU airports
Cancellation of ferries between UK and EU ports
Cancellation of Eurostar trains between UK and EU
Closure of the Channel Tunnel

Should you already be on your holiday and your return journey is disrupted in the event of a no-deal Brexit, then cover is also provided in the event of:

Trip disruption
Curtailment
Missed departure, Inbound and Outbound (missed departure does not apply to Bronze cover)
Missed onward connection, Inbound and Outbound
Delayed arrival back in the UK
