Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need travel insurance?

Travel insurance can protect your financial investment (up to the amount of your policy limits) should your trip be cancelled or interrupted for a covered reason, as well as provide additional benefits like baggage protection and emergency medical and dental.

What is included under non-refundable costs?
Non-refundable costs can include your trip deposits/payments that would be lost if you had to cancel for a covered reason prior to trip departure. Some examples may include cruise, tour and airline ticket costs. Be sure to consult your travel coordinator to determine what costs are non-refundable for your particular trip as cancellation policies vary.

What does travel insurance cover?
Travel insurance can provide benefits for a number of situations that may occur before your during your trip, including:

  • Trip Cancellation Protection
  • Trip Interruption Protection
  • Emergency Medical/Dental
  • Emergency Medical Transportation

What will the 24-hour Hotline Assistance do for me?
The 24-hour hotline is staffed with multilingual specialists who can help you with all types of situations from anywhere in the world, from reporting lost baggage to getting emergency medical treatment. They can also help you replace passports, refer you to legal assistance, secure cash from home in case of emergency and guarantee payment to gain admission into a hospital in many cases.

If I cancel my trip, do I get my money back?
Trip cancellation protection provides cash back for prepaid, nonrefundable payments if you have to cancel your trip for one of the reasons covered by your plan. Some reasons include sudden covered medical emergencies, financial default of a covered airline, cruise line or tour operator, employer termination, terrorist incidents, and jury duty. Some reasons for cancellation aren't covered, such as changing your mind about taking a trip or other things not named in your policy/certificate of insurance. Not all plans include trip cancellation. Please see the Certificate of Insurance/Policy for terms, conditions, and exclusions.

If you cancel your trip for a covered reason, you must notify your travel supplier(s) within 72 hours of the cancellation.
