For most people planning the details for a cruise, honeymoon or dream vacation is part of the fun. Anticipation of the trip is usually on our minds as we pay the nonrefundable deposits for airfare, tours and accommodations. One detail that is often overlooked is what will happen to those deposits and prepaid trip expenses if you are unable to depart or have to come home early. Trip cancellation insurance protects the covered expenses in case of many unforeseen circumstances. For a fraction of the trip cost you can alleviate the risk of losing money if something unforeseen gets in the way. You may have skipped this coverage before but if you're paying out a lot of money upfront for an organized tour or airfare, if you have questionable health, or if you have a loved one at home in poor health, it's probably a good idea to get this coverage. Safe Travels Multinational Trip Protection covers the nonrefundable financial penalties or losses you incur when you cancel a prepaid tour or flight for an unforeseen reason. Some of our plans even cover if you have to cancel due to the death of a pet. Please note this is not a definitive list and you would need to check your documents to ensure your reason for cancellation is covered.
It's smart to buy your insurance within a week of the date you make the first payment on your trip, however, you can purchase the cancellation plan up until the day before you leave. |
