How Travel Insurance Paid My Client $200 When Her Flight Was Canceled ✈️


My client paid $130 for travel insurance. When her flight home was canceled, $200 landed in her app almost instantly. Here’s what happened and why I recommend Faye Travel Insurance to every client.


A Bucket-List Trip to Spain 

My client just returned from two weeks in Spain. She traveled by train from Barcelona to Valencia to Madrid, filling her days with tapas, sangria, and Gaudí. 🍷


Her first flight home went smoothly. Then her connection from Charlotte to the West Coast was canceled.

Before she had time to panic:

  • American Airlines rebooked her on a new flight
  • Faye Travel Insurance deposited $200 into her in-app wallet 🎉

Why I Recommend Faye 📱

Faye is a newer travel insurance company that uses an app to make coverage and claims faster and simpler. I recommend it to my clients for its pricing and its smooth claims process.

Choose Your Coverage

Faye offers three tiers of coverage, plus add-ons for whatever you’ll be doing on your trip, like adventure sports or rental cars.

My tip: at a minimum, add Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage. Buy it soon after you book your trip, because there’s a time limit on adding it.

Let the App Do the Work


After you buy your policy, download the Faye app and enter your flight details. From there, the app:

  • Sends real-time flight alerts, sometimes faster than the airline
  • Offers lounge passes during long delays 🛋️
  • Deposits money into your Faye Wallet for eligible cancellations and delays

Help When You Need a Doctor 🩺

Another client got sick while traveling in Switzerland. Through the Faye app, she booked an in-person doctor’s appointment within two hours.

The Bottom Line

We all hope every trip goes smoothly, but when it doesn’t, travel insurance saves you time, money, and stress. My client’s $130 policy paid her back $200 on her way home.
