Baggage Delay Coverage

Also visit: Baggage & Personal Effects Coverage and What do I need for Coverage?


Baggage Delay coverage is included in all of Travel Insured’s Worldwide Trip Protector plans. This coverage is offered on the outward portion of your journey only from your original trip departure point. The coverage does not apply on the travel portion to your final destination or place of residence, whichever marks the end of your trip.

What Baggage Delay Covers

Baggage Delay can reimburse your expenses for purchasing necessary personal effects up to the maximum benefit on your plan. The coverage will apply when your checked baggage is delayed by your airline or common carrier either 12 hours or 24 hours, depending on your WTP plan’s specified minimum time of delay. The length of delay is calculated starting from your arrival time at your destination. You must be a ticketed passenger of a common carrier for coverage to apply.

Sports Coverage Baggage Delay

If you have purchased Sports Coverage option with any Worldwide Trip Protector plan, you can be reimbursed up to the maximum limit of your Baggage Delay Coverage for rental equipment reimbursement if your sporting equipment has been delayed or misdirected by your common carrier.
