Hi . Hopefully going to Greece in October. Villa company allows free cancellation until one month before however I'm concerned ( as has happened to me in past ) that easyJet will cancel flights less than one month before holiday. Easy jet will refund flights but does anyone know an insurer that would reimburse accomodation costs if I cannot then get out to Greece due to cancelled flights. Few insurers I have contacted so far said they wouldn't cover.
Many thanks

    Not aware of any such cover but if EasyJet cancels your flights then they're legally obliged to arrange rerouting under comparable conditions (if you choose this over a refund) so would still need to get you there and back.  Are there other flights to your destination?
  • Thanks , I will check other flights too
