It's a good idea to purchase a travel insurance plan as soon as you’ve made the first payment for your trip. The earlier you purchase, the sooner you have trip cancellation coverage in place to help protect your trip investment.

We want you to travel far and see the world, then come home safely. That’s why our travel insurance can cover you in all domestic and international locations without OFAC sanctions. (Countries with OFAC sanctions likely aren’t safe for visitors, so we’d rather you chose another destination.) We also can’t cover any countries listed on our blocked destinations page.

Yes. We know you want to travel with your favorite items, so we want to help protect them.

If your baggage, personal effects, or travel documents are lost, stolen, or damaged, we can reimburse you for replacements up to the limit shown in your policy.

The cost of your travel insurance policy can depend on many different details that are unique to you and those traveling with you. For example, your trip cost, state of residence, trip length, and age. Each of our plans and upgrades also have different pricing based on the coverage they provide. 

Lots of credit cards include travel insurance, but the coverage often has lower benefit amounts than you’ll receive directly from a travel insurance provider like us. They also often include special conditions you must meet to activate your coverage.

Your U.S. health insurance likely won’t cover medical treatment in other countries. You’ll have to pay out of pocket if something happens while you’re away from home, and medical care can be costly overseas.

Travel insurance can reimburse you for unexpected costs from eligible travel mishaps. For example, if you have a Travelex policy and you have an eligible travel delay, you can recoup the expenses for things needed during the delay, like lodging and meals.

We can’t cover absolutely everything that may go wrong on your trip. For example, we won’t cover events that were known at the time of plan purchase or were predictable. You also need to have taken steps to reduce risk during your vacation. Each of our plans is different, so it’s important to check the exclusions in your policy before departing on your trip.
