What is Extended Cancellation Protaction Waiver: Extended Cancellation Protection Plan is NOT Insurance, but rather an extended “Plan”. The sole purpose of this plan is to allow you to “cancel up to 24 Hour before departure - for any reason other than medical.” Once you are within 24 hours of departure, the plan is no longer valid, and the standard terms apply. *Note: Some States require you to purchase Travel Insurance FIRST – in order to access the option to purchase the extended cancellation protection plan. close
