General Questions
Travel protection insurance helps protect your prepaid, non-refundable trip investment from unforeseen circumstances that could cause you to cancel, interrupt, or delay your trip. It provides financial reimbursement for covered losses and expenses.
One in six travelers experience unforeseen circumstances that can result in a cancelled or delayed trip. Travel protection provides peace of mind and financial protection for your vacation investment, covering over 30 different types of unforeseen events.
Coverage is available for USA residents traveling domestically or internationally. International residents can access coverage through a separate process. CFAR (Cancel For Any Reason) coverage is not available to residents of New York.
Coverage Questions
Standard Coverage provides 100% reimbursement for over 30 specified covered reasons, such as illness, weather, job loss, or family emergencies.
CFAR Coverage includes everything in Standard coverage PLUS the ability to cancel for ANY reason and receive 60% reimbursement, even if the reason isn't covered by the standard policy.
Covered reasons include: sickness, injury, or death of you or a traveling companion; weather-related disruptions; hurricanes and natural disasters; flight cancellations; job loss; death in the family; road closures; family pet death; medical emergencies; accidents; terrorist incidents; and many more. See your policy for the complete list.
Yes, both Standard and CFAR coverage include medical emergency coverage, which can reimburse medical expenses for injury or illness during your trip, provide emergency medical evacuation, and help locate appropriate medical facilities. 24/7 travel assistance is also available.
Group coverage protects up to 20 travelers in your party with a single policy at one low price. You don't need to list all travelers individually - the coverage automatically applies to everyone, making it convenient and affordable for families and groups.

The no cost pre-existing medical conditions waiver also requires purchase within 14 days of booking.
