Travelex's coverage can offer travel security and evacuation services to help eligible travelers evacuate from a destination when a covered security event occurs.
Because conditions vary around the world, our security evacuation travel insurance isn't available in every destination.
Major armed conflicts and current wars in the world can disrupt travel and affect your Travelex travel insurance coverage.
Travelex does not provide coverage for losses caused by an act of war, whether declared or undeclared, unless you have purchased our cancel for any reason upgrade* before the conflict’s effective date.
Major current events in the world can disrupt travel with little warning, from disease outbreaks to plane crashes to landslides.
If an event occurs after you purchase your policy and it was not reasonably expected when you bought your plan, your travel insurance may cover eligible losses.
Once an event becomes foreseeable, however, new claims related to that specific event are no longer eligible for coverage.
The alerts below highlight significant current events in the world that may affect your coverage.
International and U.S. strikes can disrupt flights, cruises, rail service, and other travel plans. If your trip is affected by a labor strike, it may also affect your Travelex coverage.
If a significant labor movement begins after you purchase your policy and the event was not reasonably expected when you bought your plan, your travel insurance may cover eligible losses.
Once a labor strike becomes a foreseeable event, however, claims related to that specific strike are no longer eligible for coverage.
Floods, severe weather, and natural disasters can disrupt your travel plans and may affect your Travelex travel insurance coverage.
If a flood occurs after you purchase your policy and the event was unexpected when you bought it, your travel insurance plan may cover eligible losses.
However, once flooding becomes a foreseeable event, new Travelex policies purchased with new claims related to that flood are no longer eligible for coverage.
Both international and USA flight disruptions and airport closures can affect your travel plans and may impact your Travelex travel insurance coverage.
If your flight is disrupted after you purchase your policy and the event was unexpected when you bought it, your travel insurance plan may cover eligible losses.
