Travel is expensive, especially tours and cruises. Once you’ve paid your deposit or full payment, what will happen if:

  • you or someone in your immediate family unexpectedly becomes ill, injured or dies and you can no longer take or continue your trip?

  • your tour operator, airline or cruise line stops operating?

 

A cancellation or interruption of your trip can cause you to lose some or all of your prepaid trip expenses.

 

In the event of a covered hurricane or other unforeseen severe weather, travel insurance may cover any expenses or delays under the Trip Cancellation and Interruption coverage. If your trip is cancelled, you may receive a refund for the full trip up to the limit of coverage. In case of an interruption such as an illness, you may be reimbursed for the remainder of the trip.

 

In addition to trip cancellation and interruption, the more comprehensive travel insurance plans available today may also cover emergency medical expenses; emergency medical transportation, when ordered by a doctor, to the nearest adequate medical facility; reimbursement for accommodations and expenses incurred due to travel delays; reimbursement for the purchase of essential items if baggage is delayed; and coverage against lost, stolen or damaged baggage

 

You're involved in an accident while on a summer trip to Europe with your family and adequate medical treatment is not available. Who will help arrange and pay for a medical evacuation? If you have travel insurance, this isn't a problem.

 

Many travel insurance policies do not cover terrorism, or only cover terrorist acts that occur on foreign soil. Travel insurance through Travel Guard can cover terrorist incidents both in the United States and abroad.
