Just looked at the policy document. Call HSBC asap. Tim Send a noteboard - 18/04/2010 07:16:20 PM
There was something about them making alternative travel arrangements for you. I'm not sure how much cover you'll have for something like this, but you should find out asap so that you know what trains/ferries you can afford to book, and also whether you can get them to do the work for you.

So, I am Volcano-stuck in Rome, but I want to be in Edinburgh Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:01:40 AM 1125 Views
Board-er Patrol, arrest that woman! AgentOrange - 18/04/2010 10:34:49 AM 800 Views
There are worse places to be stuck than Rome Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:40:29 AM 658 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 686 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 650 Views
You are really not being very sensible here. jh - 18/04/2010 10:48:34 AM 670 Views
Oh, I am being sensible. The wish to get home is really just a sham. Camilla - 18/04/2010 10:53:46 AM 697 Views
Can you even get Eurostar tickets anymore? Legolas - 18/04/2010 12:53:52 PM 655 Views
Yes. There are tickets on all trains on Tuesday. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:49 PM 636 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 655 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 280 Views
I had never heard of such a thing. What a fun idea!! Tashmere - 18/04/2010 03:54:15 PM 610 Views
It seems there may be hope for people in Calais after all! (Daily Mash link) Tim - 19/04/2010 09:32:42 AM 697 Views
Excellent! *NM* Camilla - 20/04/2010 07:11:13 AM 257 Views
I'm beginning to think I was lucky to get out of London so easily. Wibble - 18/04/2010 11:13:58 AM 633 Views

If you can get to Amsterdam, there are ferries to Newcastle. Spriteling - 18/04/2010 11:37:41 AM 764 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 259 Views
That is beginning to sound tempting. *NM* Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:11:04 PM 283 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 272 Views
Nothing is difinitive yet, but it looks like that is our best option. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:19:00 PM 592 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 634 Views
Here is the website for the ferry: Spriteling - 18/04/2010 04:27:30 PM 1057 Views
There is no room, sadly. It would have been a good idea. Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:35:41 PM 632 Views
There appear to be luxury cabins for £242. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 07:05:41 PM 267 Views

Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Tim - 18/04/2010 04:38:54 PM 1762 Views
Re: Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? Camilla - 18/04/2010 04:41:44 PM 628 Views
It's nothing to do with the card you pay with. Travel insurance is a freebie with the Advance A/c. Tim - 18/04/2010 04:50:08 PM 2309 Views

Unless there are further eruptions. Tim - 18/04/2010 07:02:27 PM 623 Views
Well, from what I heard, there was talk about decreasing pressure. jh - 18/04/2010 08:15:01 PM 580 Views
There's a volcano named Katla? That's awesome. Legolas - 18/04/2010 08:24:59 PM 659 Views
Well, typically, the name would refer to the dragon. jh - 18/04/2010 08:30:03 PM 576 Views
It's under a huge glacier. We really don't want it to erupt. *NM* Tim - 18/04/2010 10:05:52 PM 273 Views
