Life can be unpredictable. You may have just booked your trip and purchased a new luggage set, when you're suddenly faced with extreme weather conditions, unexpected illness, or worse - your new luggage set ends up thousands of miles away from your destination. These events can often delay or cause you to cancel your vacation outright.
While you can't count on your vacation going exactly as planned, you can count on Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance for peace of mind. Whether you're planning your first vacation, or you are an experienced globetrotter, it's important to pack this type of insurance.
What does Trip Cancellation Insurance Cover?
Imagine this – you’ve booked your next getaway and something unexpected happens that prevents you from travelling. Without Trip Cancellation coverage, you may not be reimbursed if you need to cancel your trip.
Trip Cancellation insurance covers events like:
- You lose your job
- You or an immediate family member gets ill and can’t travel
- You miss your connecting flight
- A new travel advisory has been issued and it postpones your trip
- The airline you’ve booked your flights with goes out of business
If these situations happen, you’re going to want to make sure you can recover expenses and avoid paying for the same vacation twice.
Why do I need Trip Interruption Coverage?
It's important to remember that Trip Cancellation Insurance coverage ends once your trip begins. Trip Interruption covers you if something goes wrong after you've left home. This type of coverage is important if your trip gets cut short and you need to return home, or if you need to stay at your destination for longer than anticipated.
Trip Interruption insurance covers events like:
- A return flight home due to a family emergency, such as death or medical emergency
- Meals and accommodation if you're forced to prolong your stay at a destination (involuntary stay)
