Can I put non-family members on my plan?

Yes. Coverage can extend to non-family traveling companions as well.

A traveling companion is considered anyone with whom you have planned a trip and intend to travel. A group or tour leader is not typically considered a traveling companion.

How does trip cancellation and interruption coverage work?

It reimburses for forfeited, nonrefundable, unused payments or deposits if the traveler must cancel or interrupt their trip due to a covered reason.

How much does travel insurance cost?

The cost of travel insurance is based, in most cases, on the value of the trip and the age of the traveler. Typically, the cost is five to seven percent of the trip cost.

What else is offered with the purchase of a Travel Guard plan?

To boost travelers' confidence when traveling, Travel Guard has added LiveTravel® assistance, which provides 24-hour, "911" emergency travel agency-type services to all standard retail plans, in case a traveler has to change a flight or a hotel room. Travel Guard has also added assistance with emergency cash transfers, pre-trip consultation services (travel advisories, passport requirements, inoculation information, etc.), and live messaging, which will relay any e-mail or phone message to family, friends or business associates.

What happens if a traveler must cancel their vacation?

Often a traveler will lose nonrefundable deposits and prepayments that can add up to hundreds—or even thousands—of dollars. A comprehensive travel insurance plan through Travel Guard can provide trip cancellation coverage for the traveler's vacation investment—the insurance company reimburses the traveler for all prepaid, nonrefundable expenses for a covered loss.

Why should a traveler buy travel insurance?

Travel insurance gives travelers coverage for unforeseen problems, from a cancelled flight to a serious illness—or in rare cases, even an act of terrorism or the financial default of a travel supplier. If an illness, accident, or other covered unforeseen circumstance forces a traveler to cancel or interrupt their plans, they face two major financial losses—money invested in nonrefundable prepayments, and medical expenses that in many instances may not be covered by health insurance.
