Hi all, I did some quick searching for other threads, but I only found results related to the $200 credit - I booked a trip using the personal platinum (US) card, and the airline subsequently cancelled one of my flights "due to weather" (blaming the current hurricane for a flight on the west coast). I have subsequently been rebooked on an airline that I do not have status with, as that was the only seat available to get me there without incurring an overnight delay. I had previously selected a seat with extra legroom, complimentary of my status, but the airline would only book me in economy, I had to pay the fee to select a seat with extra legroom. Do I have any merit in claiming this against the travel insurance, as arguably by doing so I'm saving them much more on an expensive hotel room, or do I just need to eat the cost?
Hello
S80 , were you delayed by more than 6 hours? If the answer is no, I don't think the AmEx Trip Delay insurance would pay anything.
Trip Delay InsuranceCoverage is provided that reimburses an Eligible Traveler for reasonable additional expenses (including but not limited to meals, lodging, toiletries, medication, and other personal use items) incurred for a Covered Trip that is delayed more than six (6) hours, if the Covered Trip delay is caused by a Covered Loss.
