Reservation Rewards - Trip Delay Protection

No matter how much planning goes into a trip, unexpected delays can pop up -- a lost or stolen passport, a sudden illness, or a carrier delay, for instance. No matter what the cause, these delays can add to your costs -- whether it's a hotel room if you're stranded away from home or simply a long-distance call to let your family know you're okay.

In the event you're delayed 12 hours or more, you can be reimbursed for qualified necessary emergency expenses -- up to $500 per trip and up to $500 a year! You should make every reasonable effort to minimize or avoid these additional expenses, but know that you're protected. Use the links below to make a claim and see the full terms and conditions for this benefit.
