When we travel, we hope for the best but should plan for the worst. Whether you are travelling in Canada or out of country, there are many risks and insurance can provide a worry-free vacation and a back-up plan just in case things don’t go smoothly.
Insurance is available as a package policy, or individual options are provided.
Insurance policies include:
- Emergency Medical Insurance
- To be booked according to how long you will be away for. It will cover medical expenses you may incur.
- Cancellation and Interruption Insurance
- Should you need to cancel your trip or come home early for a covered reason, you can receive all or part of your money back.
- Baggage Insurance
- If your luggage is not covered under your home owners insurance, the value of your baggage can be protected.
- Rental Car Insurance
- If your auto extension policy does not provide rental car coverage, this will provide peace of mind while you are renting a car that you have collision insurance.
- Accidental Death and Dismemberment
- Should a serious accident occur, there is coverage for your severe trauma.
- Visitors to Canada Medical Insurance
We all travel for different lengths of time. Packages are available depending on how long you will be away for and how much you have spent on the trip. There are single trip and annual policies available, and there is also top-up coverage for group plans if you need extra security.
Your Galon Insurance Broker will help determine which insurance will provide you with the best coverage, and will discuss available options with you if you are over the age of 71, have per-existing medical conditions and/or are traveling for an extended period of time.
