Credit card protection

I recently cancelled my credit card insurance.

I have just bought a flights and accommodation through Expedia using the CC for protection but I just had a thought... as I have cancelled the insurance would it mean I wouldnt be protected if the company or airlines went bust or is protection standard with a CC.

Thanks

    Two different things - your purchases are still protected over £100. All c/cards do that (it's basically the law in this country).

    However, if you lost your job you'd have no insurance to pay the card off - not that they're usually that forthcoming with the cash anyway!
