Trip Cancellation Insurance

A trip cancellation policy will compensate you for your prepaid, forfeited, and non-refundable charges if you are unable to take a trip due to an unanticipated circumstance. Trip insurance covers costs associated with airline bankruptcies, flight delays, airline cancellations, tour cancellations, lost luggage, and lost hotel reservations.

Limited medical and health coverage is available with trip cancellation plans. Most people will purchase two separate travel insurance policies: one travel medical insurance and one trip cancellation insurance.

In addition, most trip cancellation policies are only available to U.S. residents traveling inside and outside of the U.S. Few plans are available to non-U.S. residents traveling outside of their home country that offer decent medical coverage.

Whether the basic trip cancellation coverage that comes with trip insurance, or the more expansive coverage that CFAR insurance offers, it’s wise to get some type of trip cancellation insurance, especially for the following reasons:

Expensive trips:

If you're going on an expensive trip, it's always a wise decision to insure yourself in case you need to cancel the trip. This will help you protect yourself against the financial loss that you might face due to cancellation of the trip.

Travel plans made in advance:

If you've booked your travel tickets far in advance of your departure date, the chances of an unforeseen incident may be higher.

Cruises:

It can be hard to cancel a cruise and still recoup prepaid expenses. Trip cancellation coverage would give you peace of mind, knowing that you're covered against unforeseen incidents.

Traveling with kids:

Kids can get sick unexpectedly. If you have to cancel your trip due to a child's illness, insurance can protect your investment.
