RECONSIDER TRAVEL INSURANCE…..
Monday, November 30th, 2009RECONSIDER TRAVEL INSURANCE..IT IS NOT EXPENSIVE AND YOU NEVER KNOW…..
Travel insurance that safeguards a trip is a good idea for anyone, but even more so for families with young children.
When your kids are small, you never know what the day many bring: for example, chicken pox, the day before you’re leaving on a holiday.
Types of Travel Insurance
Trip Cancellation
If your seven-year-old gets chicken pox and you have to cancel your holiday, part or all of it may be non-refundable. Trip Cancellation Insurance will reimburse you for the non-refundable portions of your trip.
Trip Interruption
These policies reimburse you if your trip is cut short because one of the travelers has an accident or serious illness. You’re also protected if you have to fly home because of a serious illness, or death, in your immediate family.
Note:
- policies for these types of travel insurance must sometimes be purchased at the time you buy your air tickets, or within a few days of purchase
- trip interruption travel insurance is usually much cheaper than trip cancellation coverage
- Club Med guests are required to buy a “membership” when booking a holiday; the good news is that certain travel insurance protection is provided too
