Academic HealthPlans, a Risk Strategies Company (AHP) is the third-party program manager for the travel protection plans offered by EF. It is not within AHP authority to make benefit exceptions or to process plan cost refunds based on special or unique circumstances that are not allowed by the plan.

Please note: it is not necessary for you to speak to AHP prior to cancelling your tour or filing a claim, unless you have questions after reviewing your plan’s coverage details.

Due to the nature of the information being shared and to provide you with a searchable reference, email is the most efficient means of communication. Please email AHP at [email protected] and include the traveler’s name, date of birth, and include your questions and/or a description of your circumstances so agents can better assist you.

Please call EF Tours directly to cancel your tour. If you are unable to reach a representative you may use the call-back option, or the chat function on the EF Tours website.

Yes. Please contact EF to cancel your trip before filing a claim. If you file a cancellation claim without cancelling your trip, it will be denied as there will be no loss on file in which to pay.

First, contact EF Tours to review your options for rescheduling or obtaining a voucher for future travel, or to formally cancel your spot on the tour. EF will review what is refundable based on the Booking Conditions of your tour. The remaining unrefunded amount is what you may file a claim to recoup. You do not need to contact AHP before canceling your tour. Do not file a claim until you have formally canceled your tour.

*Do not contact AHP to cancel your tour, amend your coverage dates, or make changes to your trip itinerary.
