Protect Your Trip, Your Wallet, and Your Peace of Mind
When planning a vacation, it’s easy to get caught up in the fun parts—choosing destinations, dreaming about excursions, and counting down the days until departure. But there’s one essential step many travelers overlook: travel insurance.
It may not be the most exciting part of planning a trip, but skipping travel insurance is one of the biggest mistakes travelers can make. Here’s why this small investment can save your entire vacation—literally.
1. Trips Are Expensive—Protect Your Investment
From flights and hotels to tours and transportation, the cost of a vacation adds up quickly. If you need to cancel due to illness, injury, work conflicts, or unexpected family emergencies, you could lose thousands.
Travel insurance with Trip Cancellation coverage helps reimburse your non-refundable expenses so your hard-earned money doesn’t go down the drain.
2. Medical Emergencies Can Happen Anywhere
Your health insurance at home may not travel with you—especially internationally. Even when it does, deductibles and out-of-network charges can be steep.
Travel insurance provides Emergency Medical and Medical Evacuation coverage, which can save you from staggering bills.
Consider this: a medical evacuation from the Caribbean to the U.S. can cost $20,000–$50,000+. With insurance, that burden isn’t on you.
3. Lost or Delayed Luggage Is More Common Than You Think
Airlines are improving, but lost bags still happen—and delayed luggage can derail the start of a trip. Travel insurance can reimburse you for essential items and clothing so you’re not stranded without what you need.
4. Weather Can Change Everything
Hurricanes, winter storms, or even unexpectedly rough seas can cause delays or cancellations. If a storm shuts down your trip, insurance helps cover extra accommodations, meals, and transportation—or reimburses your prepaid trip expenses.
5. Travel Delays Are Inevitable
Missed connections, mechanical issues, or airline strikes can leave you stuck.
Insurance with Trip Delay coverage can reimburse extra meals, hotels, and other unplanned expenses while you wait to get back on track.
6. Peace of Mind Is Priceless
Vacations are meant to be relaxing. Knowing you’re covered allows you to enjoy every moment without worrying about “what ifs.” Travel insurance takes away the stress and lets you focus on making memories.
