Cancel for Any Reason Waiver Benefit (CFAR) - Provided by Gate 1 (non-insurance feature)
When you purchase our Travel Protection Plan, you also receive our Cancel for Any Reason Waiver (CFAR) Benefit. This benefit allows for cancellation up to 72 hours before your scheduled departure for any reason not otherwise covered in the Travel Protection Plan. CFAR is a separate non-insurance benefit. Travelers must first attempt to cover cancellation with Travel Protection. For those claims not eligible for Travel Protection coverage, CFAR will allow for a future credit, less applicable fees outlined below. Travel Protection and CFAR benefits may not be combined.- Independent or escorted tour reservations will be eligible for a future travel credit equal to the full cost of your trip, less the cost of initial deposit, airline-assessed fees, amendment fees, and insurance premium.
- Sea or river cruise reservations will be eligible for a future travel credit equal to 50% of the cost of your trip, less the cost of initial trip deposit, airline-assessed fees, amendment fees, and insurance premium.
Airline-assessed fees are generally $300 per person, but may be as much as fully non-refundable. Some non-refundable airline tickets may retain value, less airline-assessed fees. Your future air credit must be used to book with the same airline. Deadlines to rebook and complete travel vary by airline and may be as early as 12 months from when the tickets were originally issued (not the date of travel).
This program does not apply to custom groups and Antarctica cruises. Residents of New York, Missouri & Minnesota may purchase this Cancel for Any Reason Waiver Benefit separate from Travel Protection. Call to speak with a reservation agent for details. This Cancel for any Reason Waiver Benefit is not insurance and is provided by Gate 1 Travel.
