Cancellation or curtailment of trips due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak |
The information below is to help colleagues understand the insurance position for claims arising from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Due to the rapidly evolving situation regarding coronavirus-affected countries, the University as a general rule is not permitting any travel, international or domestic, for staff or students on University business. If you feel you have exceptional and business-critical reasons for travelling, you must contact the Executive Dean of your faculty directly who will consider your circumstances and escalate accordingly. The University is reviewing its travel restrictions on a monthly basis and working with Key Travel to cancel upcoming travel bookings and progress refund requests. Currently any travel bookings made before 1st July that are scheduled to take place before end of November 2020 will be cancelled. If your travel booking was made after July 2020 this is assumed to have gone through Executive Dean approval and will remain in place. If you need to amend or cancel a travel booking made after this date please contact Key Travel directly by phone 0161 819 8911 or email leeds@keytravel.com
Please note that the University’s travel insurance will not cover cancellation or curtailment of travel as a consequence of Covid-19 for trips booked from 29th September 2020. (Note: travel insurance cover only applies to international trips and not to travel within the UK.) |
