Travel insurance is designed to cover out-of-pocket expenses relating to an unforeseen disruption to your trip. The majority of policies sold through Squaremouth are comprehensive and offer coverage for trip cancellations, medical emergencies, significant delays, and mishandled or lost luggage.
Comprehensive travel insurance usually costs between 5% to 10% of your insured trip expenses. Factors like your trip cost, age, trip length, and coverage needs can impact pricing. You can lower your premium by comparing plans and choosing policies that don’t include cancellation coverage.
There’s no one-size-fits-all policy when it comes to travel insurance. When comparing plans, you should consider the following:
Yes, many comprehensive travel insurance plans cover cancellations for reasons like sudden illness, injury, death of a family member, natural disasters, or unexpected work obligations. Policies with Trip Cancellation benefits usually offer 100% reimbursement for prepaid, non-refundable trip costs.
Travelers can purchase travel insurance directly from providers, through a comparison site like Squaremouth, or directly through a travel supplier when booking. Credit cards and travel agents are other sources to consider. Choosing the right travel insurance company can take time. We recommend comparing plans from at least 3-5 providers before buying.
Travel insurance is not typically required when traveling overseas. The majority of travel insurance customers purchase their plans voluntarily for peace of mind and financial protection. With that said, some destinations or organized tours may require proof of international health insurance that lasts for the duration of your trip.
Yes, the majority of travel insurance plans provide reimbursement if your flight is canceled and your travel plans are significantly delayed. You may be eligible for coverage through your policy’s Travel Delay or Trip Cancellation benefit depending on how soon you’re able to be rebooked.
Travel insurance acts as a financial safety net as you explore the world. Since most U.S. healthcare plans don’t extend coverage overseas, travel insurance can act as an international health insurance plan that protects you from unexpected medical expenses you may face during a trip. While rare, certain destinations or tour operators may require proof of travel insurance that lasts for the duration of your trip.
It depends. Many travel insurance plans exclude coverage for pre-existing conditions, but some offer wavers, if you purchase within 14-21 days of your initial trip deposit. Check your policy details carefully to understand the specifics.
Single-trip travel insurance covers you for one specific trip and is the most popular choice. Annual Travel Insurance on the other hand, covers multiple trips within a year. If you travel frequently, an annual plan can be more cost-effective and convenient than buying individual policies for each trip.
