Cancellation policy

The percentages in the table above are of the full trip price, not of what you’ve paid at the time of booking.

Cancellations made within 48 hours of booking receive a full refund on all plans, including booking fees and insurance. After the 48-hour window, your refund depends on your selected protection plan and when you cancel. Core and Premium plans extend your cancellation rights beyond the Standard policy:

  • With Core, a covered reason gets you 75% of your trip cost back — even the day before you go.
  • With Premium, a covered reason gets you 100% of your trip cost back — and any other reason gets you 75%, right up to the day you leave.
What counts as a covered reason
  • Sudden illness or injury — yours, a travel companion’s, or an immediate family member’s, confirmed by a doctor
  • Death of a traveler or an immediate family member
  • A natural disaster affecting your destination or your departure point
  • A government travel advisory against travel to your destination

Changing your mind isn’t a covered reason. Premium is the only plan that covers that. Documentation is required for all insurance claims.

Everything the travel insurance covers

Both plans include travel insurance through Redpoint Travel Protection. Core insures 75% of your trip cost; Premium insures 100%.

Maximum per person:

  • Trip cancellation — up to 100% of your trip cost
  • Cancel for any reason — up to 75% of your trip cost (Premium only)
  • Trip interruption — 150% of the trip cost limit
  • Trip delay — $200 a day, $1,000 max
  • Itinerary change — $250
  • Single occupancy supplement — up to 100% of trip cost
  • Missed connection — $1,000
  • Travel inconvenience — $250 each, $750 max
  • Pet return — $1,000 per pet
  • Baggage and personal effects — $2,500, max $300 an item
  • Baggage delay — $600, after 12 hours
  • Baggage delivery — $100 per trip
  • Emergency medical expenses — $100,000
  • Medical evacuation and repatriation — up to $1,000,000

These are maximums. What a claim actually pays depends on what you can document and on the policy’s exclusions — pre-existing conditions and undeclared activities among them. We’ll send the full policy wording with your confirmation.

  • Escape the crowds—and your daily routine—with a day of cat skiing in the Callaghan, just outside Whistler! We’ll meet at Callaghan Country base before riding a heated snowcat 30 minutes into untouched powder bowls only accessible by cat. Guided by an ACMG-certified guide, we’ll ski a variety of terrain, from alpine peaks to glades, and enjoy a full day exploring remote lines. The adventure wraps up with a scenic ski back to the drop-off point and down the groomed road to base.

    • We start our day in the Callaghan base area at 8am, meeting the guide, reviewing the plan, checking gear, and signing waivers. At circa 8:30am, we hop in the snowcat for the ride into the mountains, arriving around 9:15 for a quick companion rescue refresher before skinning into one of the prime zones.

      From the snowcat drop-off at Callaghan Lake, we can ski tour peaks like Callaghan, Hidden, Telemagique, and Pump—or do a high-elevation traverse back to Rainbow, skiing a few lines en route. At day’s end, we usually ski back to the drop-off and down the groomed road to the base, though there are also tree-lined routes for a more natural descent. We’ll be back down at the Callaghan base area at around 4pm.

    • Liability waivers are a standard part of all guided outdoor adventures. Recently, the requirements have become a bit more rigorous for ACMG guides—meaning that you’ll need to agree to the signing of the waiver at the time of booking.
