Want to know more about our long-term travel insurance?

Get the scoop on our coverage to see how it’s built to help protect your entire trip.

A long-term trip lasts for more than a few days, such as a three-week vacation in Thailand or an entire summer spent in South America. But it doesn’t always have to take place outside of the U.S. — your long-term vacation could be just a few states away, whether you’re visiting family, escaping a cold winter, or traveling for work

Yes, travel insurance is worth it. It’s important to pack on every trip, but even more so on longer trips outside of the U.S. Because when you travel for longer and in another country, there are more chances for you to face a travel incident.

If you’re injured on your trip, have a personal belonging stolen, or need to rebook a missed flight, you could end up paying expensive bills on top of your trip’s original cost. Thankfully, travel insurance for long-term travelers can help provide reimbursement in these situations and much more. This way, an unexpected eligible reason doesn’t have to ruin your trip or your finances — or mean you need to cut-short your trip.

We can provide coverage for vacations up to 180 days* (yes, that’s about six months!) on our Ultimate plan. This plan is packed with our most inclusive and customizable coverage, so you’ll be getting more than just coverage for long trips.

Only traveling for one month? You can still choose our Ultimate plan if you want all the bells and whistles, but our Essential and Advantage plans might be more affordable options for trips up to 30 days long.

Looking for long-term travel medical insurance? You can choose our Ultimate plan for trips up to 180 days*, or our Travel Med Go plan, which can provide coverage for trips up to 60 days. Both plans offer additional benefits like trip interruption and baggage and personal effects coverage.

Think you only want flight coverage with your travel insurance for long-term travel? Our Flight Insure and Flight Insure Plus plans can provide coverage for up to 180 days*. If you want a bit more than flight insurance, you can get a few extra benefits with Flight Insure Plus, like emergency medical expense and emergency evacuation coverage.

When you spend more time away from home, there are a few key benefits that can come in handy on vacation.

Medical expense coverage

If you’re searching for long-term travel medical insurance, you can feel confident about our plans with emergency medical and dental expense, emergency evacuation, and accidental death and dismemberment coverage. Our Ultimate, Advantage, Essential, Travel Med Go, and Flight Insure Plus plans all offer different levels of medical coverage.

Why is this coverage so important? Your individual health insurance plan often doesn’t cover you outside of the U.S., and it may not even apply in certain states — meaning you could be paying your pricey medical bills on your own. Our long-term travel insurance can help reimburse you for eligible expenses to give your wallet some relief.

Plus, our included 24/7 emergency assistance services can help you find a nearby doctor or schedule a telehealth appointment, arrange your emergency medical evacuation, and more.

Lost, stolen, delayed, or damaged luggage protection

Even when you're extra careful, there's still a risk your stuff could slip away while you’re on the move. And if something does happen to your belongings, it can derail your trip — leaving you without the essentials you need. Our long-term travel insurance could reimburse you for the cost to replace your items up to your plan’s maximum amount. This way, you could be supported with financial relief during a stressful situation.

Trip cancellation and interruption and travel delay coverage

Sometimes our vacations don’t run smoothly like we planned, whether a storm delays your flight or you get sick and need to cancel your trip. If you need to call off your trip or cut it short because of inclement weather, a serious injury, work-related reasons, and more, your Travelex policy can help provide coverage for eligible costs. Plus, if you’re delayed for at least five consecutive hours, we can also reimburse you for your eligible hotel stay, meals, and local transportation you need while you wait to continue your trip.

Helpful reminder: Our plans each offer unique benefits and coverage amounts. Visit our travel insurance plans page to learn more or call our award-winning customer service team at 1-800-228-9792 for questions about our long-term travel insurance. 

Usually not, which is why it’s important to look into long-term travel medical insurance.

The longer you’re on vacation, the higher the chance of something going wrong that requires a trip to the doctor. Whether it’s an eye infection or a twisted ankle, without coverage that applies overseas, you can’t have your out-of-pocket costs reimbursed. We’re here to help ensure those urgent medical bills don’t fall entirely on your shoulders. 

You can, if you buy our Ultimate plan and meet a couple requirements! Just purchase the plan within 21 days of your first trip payment, insure your entire trip cost, and be fit to travel when you buy your policy.

Then, our pre-existing condition exclusion gets waived — meaning you can have protection for your chronic illness if something unexpected pops up during your long-term vacation. 

Yes! If you’re bringing along your prized possessions on your extra-long vacation — like jewelry, watches, or other high-value items — our plans can help safeguard them. Most items are eligible for reimbursement up to $500 each if they’re lost, stolen, or damaged during your trip — but our base plans don’t offer coverage for electronics.

Want extra protection while you’re away from home for weeks or months at a time? With our optional baggage upgrade, you can increase the benefit limit and add coverage for devices like your cameras, smartphone, and laptop, up to $1,500 combined. Just be sure to keep receipts for anything over $250 to make filing a claim simple. 

If you’ve already left home, you won’t be eligible for any of our plans.  

The latest you can buy our coverage is through our Travel Med Go plan. It’s available up until the date of departure, as long as you haven’t started your trip yet. 

Yes, we can extend your coverage if you meet the following:

  • The original policy you bought insured your entire original trip.
  • Your return is delayed by unavoidable circumstances beyond your control.

If you meet the requirements, we can extend your coverage until either the date you return home or seven days after your original scheduled date of return. With the ability to extend your travel insurance coverage on a Travelex policy, we’re here for you if something goes wrong and your vacation lasts longer than you anticipated.

Remember: We can only extend your coverage if something unexpected keeps you on vacation. We can’t extend coverage if you want to lengthen your trip by choice.
