With cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) being diagnosed in various countries, customers have been contacting AXA and Lloyds Bank to understand how their travel insurance is impacted. You should monitor the situation through official sources such as the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the World Health Organisation (WHO).
It is important to note that if you book a holiday after 18 March 2020, your policy will not cover any trip under the ‘Cancellation or curtailment charges and early return’ section in relation to coronavirus. AXA will continue to cover medical costs if you become ill in a country or region the FCO hasn’t advised against visiting.
If you booked a trip up to and including 18 March 2020 and want to understand the cover you have please read the FAQs. You can also register a claim online.
