3/ Cancellation cover
Refunding of the sums paid and payment of the monies to be paid for the total price of the leisure break, less the insurance premium (in other words, the cost of taking out the insurance). The total price of the leisure break comprises the related services billed for: it includes the price that the insured party must pay in the event of cancellation as a result of one of the events listed above, subject to the exceptions mentioned in Paragraph 5 below, entitled “Specific exceptions in the event of cancellation/interruption of leisure break/delayed arrival”.
1. Serious illness, serious accident or death of the insured party. Serious illness or accident is understood as any change in health or a bodily injury that prevents the insured party from leaving home or the hospital where the insured party is being treated on the date of departure and which is confirmed by a sick leave certificate or by a medical certificate stating the aforementioned restriction, or prevents the practising of the activity that is the main purpose of the leisure break. Relapses or accidents notified at an earlier stage are covered provided that the illness or accident has not manifested itself in the month preceding the booking date. Grounds involving pregnancy are covered only in the event of related complications attributable to such a condition, miscarriage, delivery and the post-natal period, arising after the booking date. With regard to serious illnesses/accidents that trigger cancellation cover, the insured party must grant the company’s medical inspector access to their medical files. Failure to do so will result in no cover being provided.
2. Fire, explosion, theft, water damage or a natural event resulting in significant damage to the house of the insured party and occurring prior to their departure or during the leisure break and requiring them to be present at the place where the incident occurred or at their second home or at the business belonging to them.
3. Inability to take possession of the leased premises due to dismissal (except for dismissal for gross professional misconduct), a transfer, divorce or separation filed at court, of the booking party or their spouse (or common-law or civil partner), provided that the event causing the cancellation occurs after the cover has come into effect.
4. Inability on the part of the booking party to reach the booked accommodation by road, air, rail or sea on the date they are scheduled to take possession of the rented premises, and within the following 48 hours, as a result of:
- barricades or strikes blocking transport routes or floods or natural events vouched for by the mayor of the commune or any authority of the area where the holiday accommodation is located.
- traffic accident involving the tenant and causing damage leading to the immobilisation of the vehicle and confirmed by an expert report.
We also provide cover for:
- the theft of the insured party’s vehicle in the 15 days preceding the start date of the leisure break, confirmed by the filing of a complaint.
- the attempted theft of the insured party’s vehicle in the week preceding the start date of the leisure break, confirmed by the filing of a complaint.
5. Changes to the holiday dates made by the insured party’s employer.
6. A lack or surfeit of snow: this type of cover can only be taken into consideration following a snow report published by an authorised body concerning the resort itself if it is a member of said body, or if it is not, the closest resort as the crow flies. It will be established that there is a lack of snow at the ski resort at the leisure break location if, in the 48 hours preceding or following the scheduled start date of the rental, more than two-thirds of the resort’s runs and/or ski lifts are closed on the basis of the aforementioned snow report. This cover can only apply during the period for which the resort’s ski area is officially open or from the date on which it opens early.

The death of or serious illness/injury of the person responsible for replacing the booking party at work (independent, liberal, medical or paramedical profession) or looking after the minors or disabled children of the booking party or their spouse (or common-law partner), subsequent to the booking date, on condition that a contract or agreement was signed before said date.
4/ In the event of the interruption of the leisure break or delayed arrival
