    I very much doubt any insurer will pay in this situation. 'Missed departure cover' frequently only covers public transport to the airport and in all cases requires you to show you left sufficient time to get to the airport to check in. In this case it appears he has admitted he didn't

    It sucks and I bet not one person who has booked a flight / holiday has ever read all the T&C's. Sadly through nerves it's come back and bit you on the a rse. As both a regular traveller but still a nervous passenger at times can relate to your nerves but gotta bite this one buddy.

    You don't need to read the T and Cs to know that if you miss your flight you don't get a refund! That is simply common sense, on the same level as knowing that you should bring your passport.
