Trip Inconvenience / Delay

Trip inconvenience (or trip delay) coverage assists with expenses when your vacation is delayed beyond your control. When flights are delayed, connections are missed, or weather shuts down an airport, this coverage helps pay for the unexpected costs of waiting.

What expenses are covered?

• Hotel accommodation during the delay
• Meals and refreshments
• Essential purchases (toiletries, clothing if bags are inaccessible)
• Local transportation

How does it work?

Coverage typically kicks in after your trip is delayed beyond a minimum number of hours (often 6-12 hours, depending on the policy). You pay for expenses, keep receipts, and submit a claim with documentation of the delay from the carrier.

Sitata’s parametric flight coverage goes even further - providing automatic payouts for qualifying delays with no paperwork required.
