I know there have been some questions about insurance based on the flight cancellations and delays during this recent situation. CSA covered all concerns for those that had purchased insurance prior to April 14 but any policies purchased after the eruption on the 14th were not covered for a volcanic eruption. CSA now considers the volcanic event which happened on April 14, 2010 to have ended on April 22, 2010, when Eurocontrol announced that air traffic had returned to normal levels. CSA now confirms that any future volcanic events occurring after April 22, 2010 will be considered new events and as such will be covered. Not sure how other insurance companies are going to handle this going forward.
