Q:Is Pay-As-You-Fly a traditional annual aviation insurance policy?
A:No. You get all the benefits of a traditional aviation policy you just pay for in-flight cover when you need it. With a traditional aviation policy, you pay for in-flight cover when your aircraft is sitting on the ground. Our Pay-As-You-Fly policy provides comprehensive annual ground cover and 7 Insured Flying Days to use when you need in-flight cover. You have the option to purchase additional in-flight cover at a fixed daily rate when you have used the 7 included days. You can select and book Insured Flying Days through your FlyCovered account before you fly, even on the same day; it only takes a couple minutes from your Iphone, smartphone, tablet or PC, you can fly as many hours as you wish on these days.

Q:Is Ground Cover+ a traditional ground cover policy?
A:No. Our Ground Cover+ policy provides annual ground cover plus you can buy and add flight cover at a fixed daily rate on the days you need it. The ground cover section is protecting the aircraft insured under this policy when it is not in flight, for physical loss of or damage to the aircraft. Eg theft, malicious damage or storm damage. It also covers your legal liability to others arising when the aircraft is not in flight, including when you are moving the aircraft or running the engines. Unlike other ground cover policies you don't have to upgrade to an annual policy or call a broker to arrange flight cover, it's all done online. You can fly as many hours as you wish on the Insured Flying Days you buy and book.
