What Does Return Air Only Coverage Include?
Any additional airline expenses the traveler incurs trying to return home are covered under trip interruption / return air only coverage. This is a specific subset of trip interruption coverage focused exclusively on the cost of returning home. Unlike full trip interruption coverage, return air only does not reimburse for the unused portion of your trip.
When Is Return Air Only Coverage Useful?
This coverage is particularly useful when you have purchased separate components of a trip and the primary concern is the additional cost of returning home early. If you are most concerned about the out-of-pocket cost of emergency airfare, return air only coverage may be sufficient. For more comprehensive protection, consider full trip interruption coverage.
