Your bags are packed and you’re ready to catch an early morning flight to a tropical paradise. You can’t fall asleep because you are so excited to have your toes in the sand and a drink in your hand in less than 24 hours. The phone rings and there is an unexpected emergency that puts an immediate halt to your long anticipated dream vacation. Do you have travelers insurance? If not, you will probably lose your entire investment in airfare, lodging, car rentals, and any other planned activities.

Vacations can also be ruined by much less dramatic events. Missing a flight connection or losing your luggage is a common occurrence that puts a sour start to what was supposed to be a relaxing, stress-free getaway.

If you are traveling internationally, an illness or injury can quickly become an expensive nightmare. Most countries will not accept your medical insurance from the United States. Many will require an upfront cash payment and some may even prevent you from leaving the country until your debt is fully paid. Medical considerations are especially important for adventure seekers or those with health issues. Air evacuations and emergency surgeries can rack up debt into the tens of thousands of dollars very quickly.

You spend a lot of time and money planning your vacation. It is always a good idea to be prepared in case unexpected events disrupt your vacation. The cost of insurance may seem like a hefty investment, but life is full of surprises that can change your plans in a moment’s notice. Give yourself a peace of mind and be prepared with quality travelers insurance that will meet your individual needs.
