Provided by Delta Vacations

  • The Cancel for Any Reason Waiver protects the cost of your vacation and protects you from most cancellation penalties. Also, you can cancel for any reason and have comfort in knowing that your travel investment is protected. You must cancel before your scheduled departure.
  • The Cancel for Any Reason Waiver is provided by Delta Vacations and is not an insurance benefit.

With this option, you receive all of the benefits with the Travel Protection Plan (listed in the chart above) PLUS you:

  • Receive the refund of the cost of your vacation package AND cancellation fees in the form of your original payment should you need to cancel your vacation for any reason (less the cost of the protection plan).

Please Note: 

  • If purchased, everyone on the booking must purchase the Travel Protection Plan. 
  • The cost of the Travel Protection Plan is only refunded for cancellations covered by the hurricane policy (or within the state required free look period).
  • Refer to Delta Vacations Cancellation & Change Policy for penalty and refund details. 
  • Certain restrictions apply to groups booked with our Group Department. 
  • Certain items may not be refundable, such as show or event tickets, theme park passes, etc. 
  • Airfare cancellation fees are currently being waived by Delta Vacations for a limited time and other non-air fees may still apply and will be covered under this plan.
  • When one or more travelers cancel off of a booking but the entire booking is not cancelled, the booking will be repriced to reflect the remaining number of travelers. This may reduce the refundable amount for the person(s) whose travel is being cancelled.
