Italian Air Traffic Control Strikes


Following the announcement of the strikes by Italian Air Traffic Control on 8th June 2018, we here at tifgroup would like to clarify our position.
 
Cancellation
Our policies do not cover strike or industrial action which started or that had been announced before the date you purchased your policy. We would refer clients to the airlines or their tour operator for compensation where “the other party to the contract will give prompt assistance to a consumer in difficulty”, as per the package travel regulations found here The Package Travel Compensation
 
Extension of your Travel Insurance
Cover will be extended in the event of a delay or failure of public transport services during your trip which result in you being unable to complete your trip before your travel policy expires.

For residents of Ireland please follow the advice of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade as follows https://www.dfa.ie/travel/travel-advice/a-z-list-of-countries/italy/
 
In the event that you have specific questions not answered by this directive, please feel free to contact us on directivesqueries@tifgroup.co.uk we will endeavour to offer an answer.
