Why do I want buy TRIP CANCELLATION & EVACUATION INSURANCE?

(1) Because many health plans will not cover you outside the US,

(2) because an emergency medical evacuation can cost $10,000+, and

(3) because many unforeseeable circumstances can cause the cancellation or interrupt your trip. For a description of what is considered a covered circumstance and what is excluded from coverage please se8e the terms and conditions of coverage on the web sites of the insurer.

Best to Purchase when you send / make your first Payment. 

We strongly recommend that travelers purchase Trip Cancellation Insurance within 7 days of the date on the payment for a trip. This date of first payment is important becasue many policies may waive the exclusions for pre-existing conditions if the policy is purchased with 7 or 10 days of first payment. It can be purchased later and the pre-existing condition exclusions will apply.
