Q We have a holiday booked for Portugal tomorrow. We can see the coronavirus case numbers are rising and understand Portugal is likely to be put back on the list. We will lose our jobs if we have to self-isolate for two weeks, so will have to cancel.

Do we have any options regarding using our travel insurance to claim part of our money back?
