This is actually a great point for OP. Interruption differs from cancellation.

I suggest that you read the policy language carefully. If you bought a policy for events that clearly differ from what happened to you, then you have a weak case. But if your circumstances are in a gray area of the policy language where it is not clear, then you have a fighting chance. The policy language governs.

OP, did you get a credit from your airline when you cancelled your flight? For your hotel, did you get a refund after you cancelled your reservation? If yes, you are fighting for what you actually lost, which likely excludes refunds and credits received.
