    AIG Travel Guard Direct Standard Plan

    AIG was very responsively quick in processing my claims for baggage damage and missing baggage cover. No hassle and no fuss and the claims were reimbursed promptly (less than 5 days). What is even more significant is that my claims were easily submitted online. Very user friendly submission process.

    AIG Travel Guard Direct Basic Plan

    [Claims Process] Came back injured from my trip and the claim process was smooth and easy. 1st claim was made to me within one day via Paynow. Subsequent claims took more than one day, due to the amount, however didn’t take Long either. [Customer Service] CS was prompt and helpful to assist on the information I requested.

Hi Jill, I was actually in a very similar situation as you ever since the COVID-19 virus outbreak has taken over the world. Let me explain how I handled it, hopefully this helps in one way or another! Step 1: Head over to Expedia This link here: https://www.expedia.com.sg/service/#/myTrips/25623 You will find that you can select from a drop down menu to see whether your flight is available. ! I can find the KLM airlines there so you can select that. Step 2: Read the KLM Terms It does seem like they allow refunds and exchanges here: https://www.klm.com/travel/usen/preparefortravel/uptodate/flightupdate/index.htm However, because you booked through an Online Travel Agent (OTA) it is better if you go through Expedia for the refund Step 3: Submit a refund request At this link here: https://www.expedia.com/customersupport/travel-alert-refunds Get ready your Travel Itenary number and booking number with your flight. - Submitting a cancellation request does not guarantee a full refund. Cancellation policies differ depending upon the airline and if you wish to cancel, not all airlines allow for full refunds at this time. - If your airline does not offer a full refund, our customer support team will contact you to advise you of your options prior to cancelling your booking. - We will aim to confirm to you the amount of your refund within 7 business days.
