Travel insurance & air space closure

[littlelaura]

can anyone recommend a travel insurance company that covers air space closure. many don't. we have always used the AA in the past, as they give really competetive rates, but when i phoned to see if they cover it they said 'no'. we did find one company that did, but the quote was over 5x the cost.
we are going in May, and while i know it is unlikely that the same will happen as last yr, its better to be safe than sorry.

I've taken out a policy with Direct Travel Insurance which includes additional "Natural Catastrophe Cover", which I assume includes for 'ash clouds' from volcanoes.

I used them last year and checked the policy and they were covering it. They still do, however they have added some terms and conditions into this. It is worth looking at the T&C's on their website but I will be using them again for this trip.
