“So many travellers were disrupted by the volcanic ash cloud from Iceland earlier this year, leaving them stranded and paying for extra accommodation and living expenses,” says Sarah Findlay, Online Marketing Manager, insurewithease.com. “We, therefore, felt it was important to make this extra cover available, providing financial help for anyone affected by airspace, port or airport closure as a result of a natural disaster.

“Travel insurance should be about helping travellers when the unexpected occurs. So this new addition to our policy provides cover for cancellations or extra expenses up to £100 per day. If travellers have to remain at their holiday resort, following an enforced stay or they have to make alternative travel arrangements due to an airport closure they can claim up to £1,000.

“This additional cover, which can be added to single trip or annual policies is all part of insurewithease.com’s focus on making buying travel insurance easy, by providing comprehensive cover at the click of a button and offering expert support when consumers need it most.”

Insurewithease.com provides a full range of travel insurance policies for families, couples and individual holidaymakers. Customers can choose from 3 levels of cover - Silver, Gold or Platinum to suit their holiday and budget. In addition, families benefit from free cover for children under 18 years old travelling on single trip policies, making travel insurance more affordable than ever.

Cover benefits include:
• Medical expenses & repatriation up to £10 million
• 24 hour worldwide emergency medical assistance
• Cancellation cover up to £12,500 (Platinum Cover)
• Baggage & personal possessions up to £2,500 (Platinum Cover)
