I called and asked Dan for insurance on my entire trip, not just the scuba diving, and said I was especially concerned with the possibility of cancellations or restrictions due to Coronavirus.
I was told that the entire trip was automatically covered, including the non-diving portion. However most travel insurance, including Dan, excludes anything the WHO considers a pandemic. Some Coronavirus related problems would be covered, some would not, and I would have to talk to the claims department to get details. Unfortunately, their claims department is completely overwhelmed with Coronavirus calls, and it is impossible to get through with less than an hour wait.
I thought it would be a good idea to create a thread and share what we know, since it is not easy to get this information.
I sent an e-mail to their claims department, and will post the response when/if I get an answer.
