    When booking packages pursuant to the Norwegian Package Travel Act, the guest may take out cancellation insurance/protection such that he/she is entitled to cancel the booking without charge. Cancellation insurance/protection enables the guest to cancel the booking as a result of sudden or serious illness, accident-related injury or death in the guest’s own household or immediate family (spouse, cohabitant, child, parent, parent-in-law or sibling) that prevents him/her from travelling or makes it irresponsible to do so.Cancellation entitlement also applies if one of the above circumstances affects a travelling companion and it is therefore unreasonable to require you to undertake the package travel without the person in question. The qualifying circumstance shall be documented no later than within one month of when it occurred by providing a doctor’s certificate on a form approved by the Norwegian Medical Association and the Norwegian Travel Trade Association. The premium paid for cancellation insurance/protection is not refunded. If the booking and the price are based on two or more people sharing the same room, the cancellation insurance will cover any additional charges that would otherwise be incurred as a result of the guest being unable to travel as planned.The cancellation insurance also covers events that are of a sudden and serious nature, and of which the customer neither was nor should have been aware when the contract was entered into, and it is not reasonable to require the customer to undertake the trip. Examples of such circumstances include serious damage to property. The qualifying circumstance shall be documented by means of a police report or certificate from the insurance company.
