Middle East Conflict

We are closely monitoring developments regarding the conflict in the Middle East, which began February 28, 2026. This is a concerning and evolving situation for people throughout the Middle East region and around the world. Our highest concern is the safety and well-being of our traveling public. 

The majority of our travel protection plans exclude coverage for losses resulting from hostilities between nations and acts of war. However, coverage may vary depending on your specific travel protection plan, so we encourage you to review your plan documents for details on how your coverage may apply. 

If you are currently in the Middle East and impacted by the conflict, we encourage you to reach out to our 24/7 non-insurance assistance provider
1‑800‑494‑9907 (Toll-Free US/Canada)
1‑603‑328‑1707 (Collect Outside US/Canada)

We and our partners understand the nature of your situation and are here to provide assistance. Our ultimate goal is to help our customers navigate through this very serious situation.

We will continue to provide updates as the situation evolves.

 

Mexico
Our plans may provide benefits that can be triggered by a violent event as is occurring in Mexico. Coverage can vary by policy or State, so you should review your plan document for possible benefits under Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, Missed Connection, Trip Delay or Non-Medical Evacuation as these coverages may provide protection for losses in certain circumstances. Since this event is no longer unforeseen, plans issued on or after February 22, 2026 will not cover this event.
