Anybody know of a company that will still provide this cover please?
FYI - you do NOT need cancellation insurance as your own particular service is required to reimburse you for cancelled holidays due to service reasons. This is contained in JSP 752 (I think). I had a stand up argument with the Chf Clk a few years back when she refused to pay out, she said the JSP was wrong??!!! When I suggested that she write to the 2 Star that signed of the JSP to tell him he was wrong, she unsurprisingly had to concede :-)

The only caveat is that you require a quote from NAAFI insurance for your cancelled holiday, this is then subtracted from your reimbursement.

This was true a couple of years ago so check first, just in case.
