All advantages explained

  • Travel interruption cover also insured

    Fortunately, the anticipation usually outweighs the excitement when planning a vacation. However, in addition to possible obstacles before the start of the trip, situations can also arise later on that throw a spanner in the works. What if you are already on the road and have to end your trip early?

    A vaccination intolerance, illness or even the death of a close relative, a fire or flooding at your property are just some of the conceivable scenarios. Trip interruption cover is therefore all the more important for a long-term trip and is always included in the DR-WALTER Trip Cancellation tariff.

  • Long-term protection

    DR-WALTER has developed Trip Cancellation insurance to provide you with the best possible support for longer trips.
    It not only protects you for up to 24 months during your entire trip, but can also be taken out before departure and during the planning phase.

     

  • Protection in case of repetition of the school year

    The trip is booked, the anticipation of a break is great. After all, this school year has been a particularly challenging one. Now you find out shortly before the trip that you have not been promoted and your dream is shattered. Fortunately, travel cancellation insurance will cover you and reimburse the cancellation costs. 

  • Delay protection

    You will be reimbursed for costs and lost travel services if you are unable to start your trip as planned due to the delay of a means of transportation or feeder flight. 

  • Travel price up to € 20,000

    Have you been dreaming of this trip for years? Of this very special place, with its mystical buildings and the people who welcome you with friendliness and curiosity? Perhaps your trip is more about personal development?
    Whatever your primary motivation, you are investing a lot of time and money in your project. DR-WALTER Trip Cancellation is versatile and can also cover high-priced trips with a travel price of up to €20,000.

  • No deductibles

    The term “deductible” refers to a share of the costs in the event of a claim. A “deductible of 20 % per insured event” means, for example, that you have to pay 20 % yourself for each claim. DR-WALTER Trip Cancellation waives deductibles; you receive full reimbursement of your costs.

  • Many insured reasons

    'Insured reasons' are the events that lead to trip interruption or trip cancellation and are insured in accordance with the insurance conditions. These include in DR-WALTER Trip Cancellation:
