    You need a policy that covers Industrial Action. You will need to read the policy document of any you are interested in to see if this is covered. You also need to have the policy in place before the strike dates are announced.

    You are a bit late getting insurance as it should be take out as soon as any travel is booked, otherwise you are not covered if you had to cancel due to illness or accident.
