Travel cancellation and curtailment coverage
Canceling a fully booked trip or cutting a trip short can be stressful, especially if you’re stuck having to pay out-of-pocket for your lost journey. If you’re an N26 You, N26 Business You, N26 Metal or N26 Business Metal customer making travel plans, you’ll now have extended travel cancellation and curtailment benefits, including pandemic coverage for claims relating to COVID-19. This trip cancellation and curtailment coverage is valid for all trips abroad, and for trips to destinations farther than 100km from your home in your country of residence, which begin on or after January 22, 2021. If you have to cancel an upcoming trip or cut a trip short because you or a travel companion is diagnosed with an epidemic or pandemic disease such as COVID-19, you’ll be able to claim compensation. In addition, you’ll now also be covered up to a maximum amount of €10,000 if your trip is interrupted or canceled because you or your travel companion are placed into an individual quarantine due to exposure to a virus. In this case, you must have been specifically singled out as an individual case, and ordered to quarantine by the government or a public authority. Please note that you must not have traveled against government or public authority advice. This new pandemic coverage will not cover cases where a quarantine applies generally to the wider population or a region, or to the place you are traveling from, through, or to. For the cover details, please refer to the policy Terms and Conditions.
