Trip Cancellation helps before your trip begins if you need to cancel for a covered reason. Trip Interruption applies after your trip starts—helping with costs if your trip is unexpectedly cut short due to a covered event. While both benefits offer financial protection, they respond to different timing and circumstances.
For example, Trip Interruption could help cover the additional costs to transport you to your originally scheduled return destination or catch up to a tour you’ve missed. Together, these benefits work to help protect your travel investment before and during your journey, giving you flexible support when plans change.
Your personal car insurance may cover rental cars, but coverage can vary, especially when traveling internationally. Our optional Rental Car Damage and Theft Coverage can help protect you from unexpected costs not covered by your own insurance. It’s important to check your existing policies carefully to understand if and how rental cars are covered. Rental car coverage as part of a travel protection plan can offer additional peace of mind.
Air travel is often a stressful part of a trip for people, with unpredictable delays and other airport issues.

Family trip insurance can provide a wide range of coverage to protect families from unexpected events before and during their travels.

Emergency medical expenses can be covered as well, providing reimbursement for unexpected medical treatment and hospital stays if a family member becomes ill or injured while traveling. Baggage protection can reimburse for lost, stolen, or damaged luggage and personal belongings.

Yes, our plans do cover trip cancellation due to a family member’s illness, as long as the illness is serious enough to prevent travel and meets the plan's terms and conditions. Typically, this includes sudden or unexpected illnesses that require medical attention and make it unsafe or impossible for you to travel. Coverage may also be available for an ill family member who is not traveling with you. It’s important to review your specific plan document to understand which family members are covered and what documentation, such as a doctor’s note, may be required to support your claim.

Many travelers think travel protection is worth it for a golf trip, especially if you have significant prepaid expenses, are traveling with valuable golf equipment, or are going abroad. It can protect you from financial losses due to trip cancellations, lost or damaged clubs, medical emergencies, and travel disruptions. Having coverage can provide peace of mind, allowing you to enjoy your golf getaway knowing you’re protected against many common travel risks.

Cruise insurance is worth it for many travelers because it provides valuable protection against a range of unexpected events, such as medical emergencies, trip cancellations, travel delays, and lost or delayed baggage—risks that are often not fully covered by standard health insurance or credit card benefits. Especially for expensive, non-refundable, or international cruises, having cruise insurance offers peace of mind and added financial security, providing you coverage if your plans are disrupted or if emergencies arise while you are at sea or abroad. Given the potential costs and complications that can occur, purchasing cruise travel protection can be a worthwhile decision for many travelers.
Yes. Travel Insured International offers travel insurance benefits that may help cover the cost of medical treatment while on a cruise, whether you need to see a doctor on board or require care at a medical facility during a port stop. Covered expenses may include diagnostic tests, prescription medications, emergency procedures, hospital stays, and follow-up visits. Medical benefits are especially important for international travelers, as many domestic health plans don’t extend coverage overseas. Plans also include access to our 24/7 non-insurance assistance partner, Robin Assist, who can coordinate care and help locate nearby facilities if needed.
The best time to purchase cruise travel protection is right after you make your first trip payment. Purchasing early can make you eligible for important time-sensitive offerings such as cancel for any reason coverage and pre-existing condition exclusion waiver. These early purchase windows are usually limited to 14-21 days from your initial trip deposit date. Enrolling during this window also allows for earlier coverage in the event that issues arise weeks or months before your trip. It's a beneficial way to secure both financial and service-related safeguards long before you depart.
Cruise travel protection plans typically cover a wide range of unexpected events, including trip cancellations, trip interruptions, travel delays, missed connections, medical emergencies, and baggage loss or delay. Coverage may also extend to medical evacuation, accidental injury, and certain emergency services. In addition to these insurance benefits, plans from Travel Insured International include non-insurance services like 24/7 access to concierge help or emergency coordination. Optional upgrades, such as Cancel for Any Reason (CFAR), may be added for increased flexibility and control. It's important to review the specific plan document for benefit limits and covered reasons.

Travel Insured offers an insurance benefit called “Baggage Delay.” If your checked luggage is delayed for a predetermined specific time period after you arrive at your destination, (typically 3, 6, or 12 hours, depending on your plan) you can be reimbursed for necessary items you need to buy while you wait. These include basics like clothing, toiletries, and other personal essentials. This benefit is especially helpful when bags don’t arrive on time, and you need to attend an event or continue traveling. Just keep your receipts for when you submit a claim.
Yes. If your baggage is damaged during transit – such as by an airline – Travel Insured International may cover the loss. You should first file a claim with the airline, as they are often responsible for the damage. After that, you can file a claim through travel insurance to recover any remaining costs not covered by the airline. This can include damage to clothing, personal items, or certain valuables. Remember, reimbursement is subject to your plan’s maximum benefit amount. For higher-value items, you may want to purchase one of our plans that offers an optional bundle for added coverage. (Additional cost and terms apply.)
Our solutions are not just to help out financially—we also include access to 24/7 non-insurance emergency assistance. That means you won’t have to handle a medical crisis alone. You can get help locating a doctor or hospital, help with translations, arranging emergency transportation, and even communicating with your family back home.
Normally, there is an exclusion of coverage for pre-existing condition, but our plans offer a waiver if certain criteria is met. The Pre-existing Medical Conditions exclusion can be waived if you purchase your plan within the time sensitive period (stated in your plan document) and you are medically able and not disabled from travel at the time of purchase. This waiver applies to medically related Trip Cancellation and Interruption reasons.
Please read the plan document for full details on this exclusion waiver.
Medical emergencies could be expensive, especially abroad. Travel protection can help you with medical expense costs and gives you access to 24/7 non-insurance assistance.

In some plans, coverage may also extend to pre-existing conditions if certain requirements are met.** You’re not just protected financially. You’re supported by a team that can guide you through emergencies as they happen.
**Losses due to, arising or resulting from pre-existing medical conditions are normally excluded. However, such losses can be covered if you qualify for the Pre-Existing Medical Condition Exclusion Waiver.
The amount of medical expense coverage you may want depends on various factors, including your destination, the length of your trip, and any personal health considerations. Travel Insured offers plans with varying levels of medical expense coverage, allowing you to choose the protection that best suits your needs.
