Compare Travel Insurance
Travel insurance in Canada generally covers emergency medical expenses, trip cancellation or interruption, lost or stolen baggage, and flight delays. Some policies may also include coverage for sports or adventure activities.
Travel insurance is not mandatory for travel abroad, but it is strongly recommended. It offers financial protection against unforeseen circumstances that may arise before or during your trip, saving you from potentially high costs.
To choose the right travel insurance, assess your specific needs such as trip duration, destination, planned activities, and your health status. Compare insurance policies for coverage, exclusions, deductibles and reimbursement limits. Read user reviews and consult expert recommendations.
Trip cancellation in a travel insurance policy covers non-refundable expenses if you have to cancel your trip for covered reasons, such as sudden illness, death in the family, or a business emergency. This can include airline tickets, hotel reservations, and prepaid tours.
In the event of a medical problem abroad, contact your insurance company immediately for specific instructions. Keep all receipts and medical documents, including diagnoses and prescriptions. If possible, pay medical expenses with a credit card to have a clear record of expenses. Follow your insurer’s claims procedures upon your return to Canada to obtain reimbursement.
You can purchase travel insurance online, by phone, or directly through your insurance broker. Take the time to compare the different travel insurance contracts before you decide, to get the best price.
