It's nothing to do with the card you pay with. Travel insurance is a freebie with the Advance A/c. Tim Send a noteboard - 18/04/2010 04:50:08 PM
Details are linked to below – on that page there's a link to the full terms and conditions.

Note that you're only covered if you live in the UK, and if the trip begins and ends in the UK and lasts no longer than 31 days. However, spouses and domestic partners are automatically covered along with the policy-holder if you live together. So make sure you tell them Tor still lives with you in Edinburgh – if you can't avoid showing that he flew to Italy from Norway, pretend he went to Norway first by ferry last week, or something :P.

There are worse places to be stuck than Rome Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:40:29 AM 783 Views
Tim said you were stuck in Rome. I wasn't sure if you were there or Norway. Alas. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:39:55 AM 819 Views

Nope. Not in Europe anyway. I suspect Lesotho might be too far to go to get it. Rebekah - 18/04/2010 10:43:31 AM 777 Views
You are really not being very sensible here. jh - 18/04/2010 10:48:34 AM 800 Views
Oh, I am being sensible. The wish to get home is really just a sham. Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:53:46 AM 825 Views

Not so fast. The dirty French have told him he's not allowed to rescue people. Tim - 18/04/2010 03:43:52 PM 781 Views

SNCF says about 1/3 of train drivers are striking, but there are extra international services. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:24:57 PM 347 Views
I had never heard of such a thing. What a fun idea!! Tashmere - 18/04/2010 03:54:15 PM 729 Views

If you can get to Amsterdam, there are ferries to Newcastle. Spriteling - 18/04/2010 11:37:41 AM 890 Views
And if you get to Newcastle, I'll pick you up if I can get the car from my sister in St Andrews. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 11:40:08 AM 326 Views
That is beginning to sound tempting. *NM* Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:04 PM 348 Views
Just saw your blog update about the bus to Germany. Are you definitely doing that? *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 04:16:23 PM 341 Views
Nothing is difinitive yet, but it looks like that is our best option. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:19:00 PM 708 Views
Oooh. I didn't know that. That sounds like it might be more sensible than Eurostar. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:10:33 PM 761 Views
Here is the website for the ferry: Spriteling - 18/04/2010 04:27:30 PM 1254 Views
There is no room, sadly. It would have been a good idea. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:35:41 PM 760 Views
There appear to be luxury cabins for £242. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 07:05:41 PM 339 Views

There's a volcano named Katla? That's awesome. Legolas - 18/04/2010 08:24:59 PM 778 Views
Well, typically, the name would refer to the dragon. jh - 18/04/2010 08:30:03 PM 689 Views
It's under a huge glacier. We really don't want it to erupt. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 10:05:52 PM 338 Views
