Are more volcanic ash cloud travel delays possible this year?

22/08/2014

It’s rumbling in Iceland…

Remember Eyjafjallajokul? Perhaps, if that name doesn’t ring a bell, you may remember the spectacular ash cloud that disrupted travel for weeks on end back in 2010 when more than 10 million passengers were stranded due to cancelled flights…

Travel disruption possible - Icelandic volcano

Eyjafjallajokul isn’t the only volcano in Iceland – there are quite a few active ones and currently there is a lot of seismic activity around Bardarbunga. The Icelandic Met Office has issued a warning that Bardarbunga is likely to erupt. 

Areas around the volcano are being evacuated and there is a real risk of an eruption. The last time Bardarbunga erupted was in 1902/1903.

We always recommend travel insurance, of course, but if you have a flight booked in the near future, this will be a good time to check that your insurer covers you for volcanic ash. Here at Travelinsured we include cover for volcanic ash as standard on some of our policies, as an option on others. Just ask us for details.

And now the most incredible Iceland volcano picture you are ever likely to see...
