Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What trip costs can be insured? |
Answer: Trip costs can include travel arrangements booked through this website and do not include arrangements made outside or independently of this website. |
Question: Why should a traveler buy travel protection? |
Answer: A travel protection plan gives travelers coverage for many unforeseen events, from a cancelled flight to a serious illness or, in rare cases, a terrorist incident or the financial default of a travel supplier. If an illness, accident, or other covered unforeseen circumstance forces a traveler to cancel or interrupt their plans, they may lose money invested in nonrefundable pre-payments. If a traveler is injured or becomes sick on a trip, they may incur emergency medical expenses that may not be covered by regular health insurance. A travel protection plan can help reimburse these costs. |
Question: How does trip cancellation and interruption coverage work? |
Answer: It reimburses for forfeited, nonrefundable, unused trip costs if the traveler must cancel or interrupt their trip due to a covered reason. |
Question: Is the financial insolvency of an airline, cruise line or tour operator covered? |
Answer: Coverage is available if the insolvency of the supplier occurs at least 14 days following the effective date. The plan must be purchased within 15 days of initial trip deposit to be eligible for this covered reason. |
Question: What happens if a traveler must cancel their vacation for a covered reason? |
Answer: Often a traveler will lose nonrefundable deposits and prepayments that can add up to hundreds or even thousands of dollars. A travel protection plan can provide trip cancellation coverage for the traveler's vacation investment and reimburse the traveler for pre-paid, nonrefundable trip costs due to a covered loss. |
Question: What other coverage is typically included in a travel protection plan? |
Answer: In addition to trip cancellation and interruption, travel protection plans available today may also reimburse for emergency medical expenses and emergency medical transportation, when ordered by a doctor, to the nearest adequate medical facility. |
