Best Travel Insurance for Delayed Departures & Adverse Weather for UK!

After posting a question on the Friends of Fair Isle Facebook group about travel insurance, Ann Croucher recommended LV Insurance (Liverpool Victoria).

I have been trying to find travel insurance for Fair Isle and I was finding it extremely difficult to find someone who covered for delay, due to adverse weather conditions. I even spent nearly 60 minutes on the phone to the British Insurance Brokers Association, who after putting me through to 'Manor Insurance Brokers' was told that no one would insure for delays due to adverse weather in the UK.

I have only ever visited Fair Isle in the Spring, so this wasn't really an issue then, but I know that things can go wrong in the Autumn with fog stopping the Airtask planes from departing and Northlink Ferry leaving late because of rough seas etc. So, it was more important to find the correct travel insurance this time. Huge thanks to Ann, as LV Insurance do cover for adverse weather delays and connections! You have to choose their "Premier" Insurance though, but even so it was still only £20.64!!!
