Travel Insurance
Look for travel medical insurance coverage. This type of insurance does not usually cover pre-existing conditions. Check your policy if you are looking for that type of coverage.
Your age increases the price on most plans. Not on the one we suggest below.
You can search for the plan that you like.
You may have annual travel medical insurance coverage through an employee plan. Check with your employer.
This is the company we recommend if you do not have one that you like better. Everyone that has had to claim has been successful in their claim, both for hospital and bag loss. The plans include travel medical and more. However, trip cancellation insurance is not included. This is an add-on.
The trip cancellation insurance also came through for someone who had to cancel for medical reasons. We have never purchased it but if you are concerned you might feel safer with it. Be sure to cover your airfare as well as the land package when you purchase unless flight is refundable.
BASIC TRAVEL MEDICAL PLAN $30.00
1 - 30 day trip covered
ANNUAL PLAN $79.00
This plan covers unlimited trips for a year. Each trip up to 180 days. It is great for those who travel overseas more than 3 times during the year. It also covers some COVID related expenses.
Trip Cancellation Insurance
If you want with most plans you can add trip cancellation insurance. However read the small print because not every situation is covered. One site said the cost is 5% of the trip cost. I haven’t ever purchased it. Up to you if you feel anxious about trip cancellations.
