American Express® Trip Cancel Guard™

The flexibility to change your mind.

There are some things you just can't plan for. Luckily, there's Trip Cancel Guard.

 

HOW IT WORKS:

 

Add Trip Cancel Guard and get up to 75% reimbursement if you cancel your eligible flight at least two full calendar days before. Available exclusively through AmexTravel.com at the time of booking. 


Trip Cancel Guard is in effect until you cancel your benefit, submit a request for reimbursement on a canceled flight, or you reach your benefit end date. This benefit applies only before your trip starts and does not offer coverage during your trip or return flight.
 
If you want to update or change your trip, you must call the Benefit Administrator to
determine if the benefit can be applied to your updated itinerary.
 
If you get a travel credit or airline voucher for your cancelled trip, Trip Cancel Guard can provide reimbursement once the credit or voucher has expired or is
forfeited by its own terms and conditions. 

 

Trip Cancel Guard is not insurance and may be purchased in addition to any other travel insurance.
