The amount you've paid for your trip is nonrefundable. If you need to cancel your trip before you leave, or interrupt it while traveling you won't be able to get your money back.
If you purchase trip interruption/cancellation insurance, you'll be able to get your money back if you cancel/interrupt it for a covered reason. The primary reason people cancel is for a medical/death reason, either for themselves or their family. See below for all the covered reasons*.
