Do I Really Need Travel Protection Insurance?

Do I Really Need Travel Protection Insurance?

Would you purchase a home and not carry homeowners insurance?  Of course not.  Then why would you purchase a vacation without insuring your investment? Many people feel that travel protection insurance is a waste of money.  Others have the attitude that nothing is going to happen to make them cancel their plans.  The reality is that you never know when something will happen so you need to reduce your risk of losing your money that you have spent on your vacation.  Travel protection insurance not only covers cancellation of your trip, it also covers trip interruption.  If you are on your vacation and something happens that would require you to return home suddenly, the insurance covers extra expenses that you will incur to change your arrangements and come home early.  The policy also reimburses you for the unused portion of your trip.

In addition to trip cancellation and interruption, most policies offer benefits for the following:

• Missed Connection

• Itinerary change

• Travel Delay

• Change fee Coverage

• Reimbursement of Miles or Reward Points

• Accident and Sickness Medical Expense

• Emergency Evacuation/Medically Necessary Repatriation/Repatriation of Remains

• Accidental Death and Dismemberment

• Baggage and Personal Effects

• Baggage Delay

• 24-hour Worldwide Assistance Services

Travel Insurance is not expensive, so don’t risk your investment.  Travel with the peace of mind that if anything arises, you will be protected.
