Thomas Cook & SOTC: Visa Rejection Cover

Mumbai, Apr 20 (PTI) Thomas Cook (India) and its group company SOTC Travel on Monday announced the launch of trip cancellation due to visa rejection cover, in collaboration with ICICI Lombard.

Under this cover, if a customer's visa application (other than an immigrant or employment visa) is rejected, the company will indemnify the insured for non-recoverable advance payments toward accommodation and travel, including applicable official cancellation charges, Thomas Cook (India) said in a statement.


"In today's ever-evolving global travel environment, financial protection has become a critical element in travel planning. Visa decisions remain beyond a traveller's control, and a rejection can have significant financial implications.

"Our Visa Rejection Cover has been thoughtfully designed to address this gap by providing structured protection against non-refundable losses," Abraham Alapatt, President and Group Head '“ Marketing, Service Quality, Value Added Services and Innovation, Thomas Cook (India) Limited and SOTC Travel said.
