International Travel Insurance

International travel insurance provides travelers with coverage around the globe. International travel insurance plans often have higher coverage limits to account for the increased cost of international travel. Otherwise, international travel insurance works just the same as most domestic travel insurance plans – covering you in case of certain unexpected costs while traveling. Our article on how travel insurance works has more details on how to use your travel insurance plan.

Travel Guard offers customizable travel insurance plans for your international trip. Look for a plan that has the coverage and benefit limits you need. Popular plan features include:

• Medical expense coverage – your U.S. health plan may not cover you while traveling internationally
• Trip cancellation coverage
• Baggage coverage
• Car rental coverage
• Lodging expense – coverage for navigating reentry requirements into the U.S. (optional add-on coverage available on certain plans)
• Cancel for any reason (optional add-on coverage available on certain plans)
• Travel inconvenience coverage – a one-time payment for covered inconveniences you encounter on your trip such as a closed attraction, runway delay, or cruise diversion
• Emergency travel assistance – specialized representatives are available day or night for unexpected travel issues
• Adventure sports bundle – planning extreme activities on your international trip? Be sure and add this optional bundle so you’re covered!

For any vacation it’s smart to cover your travel investment, but it’s even more important with an international trip. Often international travel is more expensive, so there’s more of your investment at risk if something goes wrong. That’s why Travel Guard’s Deluxe Plan with higher coverage limits is a smart option for international travel insurance. All of Travel Guard’s travel insurance plans come with access to our specially trained representatives for 24/7 emergency travel assistance. Imagine navigating the healthcare system in a foreign country all on your own – it can be overwhelming! We have experts and translators that can help you with medical and travel emergencies so you’re not alone.

Travel Guard’s Deluxe Plan is a great option for international travelers because it has higher benefit limits and additional coverage options to cover your international vacation. With optional add-ons like cancel for any reason or Travel Guard’s rental vehicle damage coverage you can create the plan to fit your needs.

Your U.S. health insurance plan may not cover you while traveling abroad. It’s important to have travel medical expense coverage while traveling internationally for this reason (and some countries even require it). Having access to specially trained representatives who are experienced in assisting international travelers is a valuable benefit to your international travel insurance plan, so you won’t be left to navigate travel mishaps alone.

Travel Guard’s Deluxe Plan includes our highest coverage limits for both travel medical expense and emergency evacuation, which can be a huge help for traveling seniors. If you purchase your Travel Guard travel insurance plan within 15 days of your initial trip payment, you’ll also have early purchase benefits which include our pre-existing medical condition exclusion waiver – which makes it possible to be covered for certain medical expenses on your trip despite your pre-existing medical conditions.
