先来看下有关“expediting expenses”的定义：

定义一：

The monetary costs for attaining the desired result as quickly as possible. In fast tracking repairs or replacement of a lost or damaged asset, overtime, express transport, prioritizing will each likely cost extra. Insurance planning for coverage could cover these expenses, which are not usually covered under a normal insurance policies.

定义二：

Expenses incurred in order to speed up repair or replacement so as to reduce the amount of loss by a peril covered in a policy. Most commonly used in connection with Business Interruption and Boiler and Machinery Insurance. Expediting expenses are generally covered if they do reduce the amount of the loss that the insurer would otherwise have to pay.

字面意思就是加速费用，也就是保险标的因保险承保的风险遭到损失或损坏而需被保险人加速进行维修或更换产生的费用，通常包括加班费、快递费用或其他运输工具费用等。
