Missed Connection Cover

Travelwaiver's Missed Connection Protection can only be purchased through participating Tour Operators and Travel Agents.

  • Coverage Details:

    • Protection begins with the first flight of the booked itinerary and ends with the last flight.
    • Coverage applies if a connection between two flights is missed due to the cancellation or delay of a connecting flight, for any reason whatsoever.
  • Important Exclusions:

    If a missed connection results from missing or insufficient travel documents, including an invalid or missing visa, the protection does not apply. It is the traveler’s responsibility to obtain all necessary documentation in advance.

  • In the event of a missed connection:

    • The traveler will immediately be rebooked by his Travel Agent or Tours Operator on the next available flight in the same cabin class.
    • If onward transportation is only available the following day, the protection covers one overnight stay in a 3- or 4-star hotel, up to a maximum of $300 per room.
  • Self-arranged alternatives:

    • If the traveler cannot reach their Travel Agent or chooses to act independently, he may purchase a new airline ticket and arrange accommodation themselves.
    • Upon submission of proper documentation, Travelwaiver will reimburse up to 150% of the original purchased airline ticket price for these expenses.
