You may think that travel insurance is only for cancellations; however it does cover many other things while you are traveling.  Some insurance policies such as Medicare and Medicaid do not offer you protection if you travel outside of the US.  All insurance policies and protections are different.  Although we are not insurance agents, as travel agents we can provide you with information and advise you about the different policies offered.  Each insurance policy is different; some cover pre existing conditions, some have cancel for any reason policies and some don’t cover airfare at all.  Each provider also has different policies for reimbursement and coverage levels.  Please ask about the options for insurance so you can make an educated decision regarding what type of coverage you should purchase.

​

Most travel insurance policies provide reimbursement for:

1)      Trip cancellation due to injury, illness or death of a family member or traveling companion.                  

2)      Trip interruption such as a missed connection or travel delay due to weather or mechanical problems.

3)      Baggage loss or delay

4)      Medical or dental bills you incur on the trip not covered by your primary medical insurance.

5)      Emergency medical transportation if you need to be transported home for surgery (do you want your broken leg set in a foreign country?)

6)      Collision/ loss damage to a rental car.

We recommend that you purchase travel insurance if your trip is very expensive, if it is planned long in advance, or if you have any reasons that would keep you home – would you still go if a child or elderly parent were very ill?   It is worth the peace of mind.

Travel insurance is very reasonable.  In many cases the price is a set amount based on the cost of your trip.  Other providers base the price on your age and the price of your trip and give you slightly better coverage.
