Bear in mind for those getting a refund v rebooking. A re-book or date change does not constitute a new booking in the eyes of the insurers. So rèbooking if you can actually retains your cover for coronavirus, should you get ill etc. A refund and then new booking clearly doesn't have that same protection.
We're in the same boat deciding whether to delay and rebook or just cancel completely. The June offer is a teaser as it's tough to know if this will all be over by then. |

What insurance company told you that? I've read in s few places that rescheduling or new booking makes no difference as it's now a known thing.

Nationwide flex plus insurance has some FAQ
nationwide/support/tra...b:copy-of-faq6 Rescheduling an existing booking would be covered if the original booking made before 18th March If you accept vouchers in return to use at a later date then not covered. Because I wouldn't have cover if accepted voucher I'd rather reschedule. I'm DIY this time so I've accepted I'm likely to be out of pocket unless we go in August Edited at 08:40 AM. |

That's not my understanding of the notice.
I've read it that if you cancel (or flight was cancelled) and rebook to travel before end June 2020 then no change fee or price difference, which I imagine would be very few people, however if you book to travel after that then you pay price difference |

I think it would be best to check with your insurer. There may be different rules for each insurance.
Mine for example has told me that changing the dates does not mean that the Insurance is portable. Mine is a single trip insurance not annual. And I would get their agreement in writing. I would be very clear that your holiday is with virgin etc given the recent press stories on this as that would be another factor. Lastly, if they said yes today, they may not say yes in future if Virgin formally request a bailout in the next few days as reported. In either event would you be covered for Coronavirus next year? Or this? Edit - plus if package have relatively good protection now, if flight only covered by atol now presumably. If you shift it what happens to those protections? Edited at 09:16 AM. |

I think you need to be a bit careful here as this doesn't seem to be the case for all insurance policies.
Each person needs to check their own policy for this as changing and not getting away might become very expensive if insurance doesn't cover. Edited at 10:12 AM. |
