Flight Delay/Cancellation Guarantee
 

On a delayed DL flight last week, my seatmate mentioned biztravel offer flight delay/cancellation insurance:
30 minutes delay = $100,
60 minutes delay = $200,
over 120 minutes delay/cancellation = Refund of full ticket price.

This only applys to AA/US/CO/BA/AF flights. It does not apply to mechanical delays.

I'm amazed by this. Has anyone taken advantage of this guarantee yet?

my Diners club card (issued in Switzerland) offers a max of $400 of extra expenses for flights with delays (arrival or departure) of more than 4 hours - if the flight ticket has been paid with Diners.

I used it once (ORD) for a night at the ORD Airport Hilton plus food/drinks - no problems in cashing in afterwards.

sorry - it is only SFr 400 (not US$)!
