LET’S TALK TRAVEL INSURANCE BY: THALIA EDWARDS

While our drive for adventure may make us feel invincible, travel insurance provides a safety net. With pesky viruses running amuck, travel insurance is needed now more than ever.

Here are some options to consider:

TRIP CANCELLATION & INTERRUPTION: Before you go, for reasons beyond your control. Death in the family, sickness, or legal obligations are only some of the possible incidents covered in standard policies.

INTERRUPTION: While travelling, for reasons beyond your control. Sickness, terrorism, or weather are a few of the reasons to interrupt your travel.

MEDICAL: This covers you only while you are travelling. Many companies offer senior and youth rates however, seniors normally must complete a medical questionnaire.

ALL-INCLUSIVE: This popular option offers coverage for trip cancellation and interruption, flight accidents, emergency medical and loss of baggage and personal effects.

NON-MEDICAL: If you have a great medical plan, this option gives similar coverage to an all-inclusive, but without emergency medical.

Insurance provides peace of mind when you travel.
