Travel Insurance

We have recently had a client make a successful claim with their travel insurer in relation to the cancellation of another European event. Should you wish to apply for a refund for your booking this can only be done via your travel insurance provider. If you wish to claim on travel insurance, please contact us for an official letter of cancellation to support your claim. Please contact [email protected] for the official letter of cancellation to support your claim. We cannot guarantee the outcome of your claim as this is independently assessed by the insurance provider. It is also pertinent to advise, if you have made a claim (irrespective of claim status) your insurance will be deemed to have been used and the ability to transfer your travel insurance policy to a new date will not be possible.

We look forward to returning to normal sporting fixtures and delivering your next holiday.  

Stay home for now.  

We’ll holiday later.  


The official news release from the Isle of Man government stated:

“The Isle of Man Government and the Manx Motor Cycle Club, the race organisers of the Classic TT and Manx Grand Prix, have taken the joint decision to cancel this year’s Classic TT presented by Bennetts and Manx Grand Prix, which were due to take place between the 22nd August and the 4th September on the Isle of Man. 

The decision to cancel both events has been taken following consultation between the Department for Enterprise and race organisers, the Manx Motor Cycle Club, taking into account the emergency measures including current border controls and travel restrictions caused by the global Covid-19 pandemic.”
