上个月去南岛旅行,回程的时候,遇到天气情况,航班cancelled,改到了另一天。我刚好买了回程domestic保险,以为可以赔偿我一晚的住宿,谁知道他们不赔,他们有term and condition
QBE will not pay any costs that relate to:
•accommodation if you did not have prepaid accommodation for your trip (except when your travel booking is a return trip on the same day)
紐航估計不會給你賠償,天氣取消航班他們也不會負責的。不過天氣原因取消Queenstown-Auckland的航班,而且是Air New Zealand……現在應該少見了很多的了,這樣都讓你遇上了:D Air New Zealand現在Queenstown有非常精密的GPS導航進近,所謂RNP0.1,和林芝一個水平了。只要云底高度不低於423(Boeing 737-300)或者400英尺(Airbus A320)就能正常運行……那天Queenstown有霧?
似乎Air New Zealand的terms and condition也沒明確說這個住宿問題:
9.2 CANCELLATION AND RE-ROUTING
9.2.1 We reserve the right to substitute an aircraft and/or Alternative Carrier. If we cancel a flight, fail to operate a flight reasonably according to the schedule, fail to stop at your destination or Stopover, or cause you to miss a connecting flight on which you hold a confirmed reservation on a Conjunction Ticket, you shall have the option, subject to our agreement, either:
9.2.1.1 to be carried on another of our scheduled services on which space is available in the same class, or where space is not available, on the services of an Alternative Carrier, in either case without additional charge or refund to you; or
9.2.1.2 to be re-routed to the next Stopover or destination shown on your Ticket by our own services or those of an Alternative Carrier. If the fare and charges for the revised routing are lower than what you have paid, we shall refund the difference;
9.2.1.3 if neither of the above alternatives is acceptable to you, we will make a refund or provide a credit in accordance with the provisions of 10.2 and we shall have no further liability to you.作者: 萨米 时间: 2011-11-18 11:16:07
I did see Air NZ flights tried to land several times but they failed so diverted, while jet star just decided not to go to QTN.
I admit that is bad luck... just do not happy about the insurance policy.

It means:
- if you didn't pre-pay for any accommodation - then no reimbursement
- if your travel booking is a return trip on the same day, meaning you go there today and coming back today, and flight is cancelled - then accommodation can be reimbursed...作者: Doodoo 时间: 2011-11-18 14:33:30
also also, email air nz, if you put it in writing, they will reply... with something...作者: slowboat 时间: 2011-11-18 14:37:03
