Trip and Baggage Insurance

Vacations can be major investments. They can also be risky investments. Blizzards can force flight cancellations, medical emergencies can postpone departure dates, or your baggage can be lost,
damaged or stolen.

With so many potential complications, it’s nice to know you can protect your investment with trip and baggage insurance.

Trip Cancellation & Interruption Insurance

TravelStar® Trip Cancellation & Interruption Insurance gives you peace of mind even before you start your trip. In the event that your trip is cancelled before your departure, Trip Cancellation provides coverage for items such as non-refundable airfare, pre-paid travel arrangements and any cancellation penalties. In the event your trip is interrupted after departure, Trip Interruption provides coverage for such items as transportation to rejoin tour groups or the cost of out-of-pocket expenses during longer delays (such as meals, accommodations, telephone calls and taxi fares).

Plus, you can customize your coverage with a range of upgrades - including adding coverage for your baggage to protect against loss, damage or delay.
