Insurance: our Covid-19 steps

Our microlights have not moved for 2 months. Practically no claims have therefore been reported during this period.

We have therefore approached our insurers to obtain for our members:

• A refund of the part of the premium corresponding to the In-flight Damage cover taken out through our federal broker Air Courtage.
• A refund of the part of the premium corresponding to the In-flight Liability cover taken out through the federation.

The insurers have noted our requests and have undertaken to take a concrete position as soon as flights have been able to resume throughout France.

Their current approach is as follows:

• The damage insurers plan a credit note to be deducted individually at the annual renewal of contracts for professionals and organisations.
• The liability insurer plans to promote flight safety through an allowance for policyholders who undertake a Return to Flying (REV) when lockdown ends. The amount and terms of this allowance should be set within a week.

We welcome your comments ahead of the close of these negotiations.

Next week, we will finally be able to give you all the information on the measures obtained!
