🛡️ Top 10 Reasons to Purchase Travel Insurance

There are hundreds of circumstances that could cause you to cancel your trip, return home early, or force you to seek emergency medical treatment while traveling. To demonstrate the critical importance of purchasing travel insurance and emergency travel services, here are 10 common examples of what could go wrong:

  1. It's 10 p.m. and you and your friends arrive at the airport for a connecting flight, only to find that your flight has been canceled. Who can assist you with finding new flights to get everyone home?

  1. Your bag was lost with your prescription medicine inside. You need help to locate your bag as soon as possible and have your emergency prescription filled. Who do you call?

  1. On your first visit to Rome, Italy, your passport and wallet are stolen. Where do you turn for assistance in obtaining emergency cash, and how will you get your passport replaced?

  1. You're involved in an accident and adequate medical treatment is not available. Who will help coordinate a medical evacuation?

  1. If your mother-in-law becomes seriously ill and you must cancel your trip, what happens to your non-refundable deposits or pre-payments?

  1. You arrive in Jamaica and your luggage doesn't. If it's lost, who will help you find it? If it's delayed, who will reimburse you for covered necessities? If it's stolen, who will reimburse you for its contents?

  1. Your cruise line, airline, or tour operator goes bankrupt. Who will pay for your non-refundable expenses? Who is able to assist in getting you to your destination?

  1. You're walking down a street in Chile and twist your ankle. Who is able to assist you in finding an English-speaking physician?

  1. Three weeks before your scheduled arrival, a terrorist incident occurs in the city you are planning to visit. Who will reimburse you if you want to cancel your trip?

  1. You are at a beach resort in Florida, and you are forced to evacuate due to a hurricane which has made your resort uninhabitable. Who can assist you in being evacuated? Who will reimburse you for your lost vacation investment?

Our Recommendation

For the most part, the answer to these questions is that you would either have to pay for it yourself or risk losing money on your trip investment. Don't let this take place. For the "what if" scenario, we advise all of our clients to purchase travel insurance. When purchasing one of our trip packages or travel in general, please give careful thought to travel protection coverage. Having insurance and not needing it is preferable to needing insurance and not having it!

Having travel insurance will protect your investment and give you peace of mind. Luxe Travel Tribe recommends purchasing Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) insurance. We recommend this because it will allow you to cancel for virtually any reason. We found during the COVID-19 pandemic that many standard insurance companies were not approving claims due to COVID-19; however, the CFAR insurance will allow you to cancel due to COVID-19 or any other reasons. This type of insurance will cost more than your normal policy; however, your investment will be better protected. Purchasing this type of policy is time-sensitive. You must STOP and make this a task immediately.
