TRAVEL INSURANCE
We know that these are uncertain times, and we are here to help should travel be disrupted again in the future. For all 2021 programs that were impacted by Coronavirus, we worked closely with all of our travelers to reschedule or adjust their travel arrangements based on supplier policies. Many factors impacted final resolutions including date of cancellation, flight cancellations, travel restrictions, and more. We cannot guarantee that refunds will be available should there be a future disruption as so many factors are considered in these decisions. With this in mind, we strongly recommend all of our customers add on a travel protection plan with our company for added protection should a future disruption occur.
Our Classic with Cancel Anytime plan includes up to 100% reimbursement of your trip cost if cancelled for a covered reason. In addition, the plan includes up to 80% reimbursement if you cancel for a non-covered reason. Travelers will receive an insurance quote upon registration.
