Trip Cancellation Insurance
This type of coverage is not included in the price
of the program but provides protection against trip cancellation or
interruption due to death, serious illness, or injury. Although we
don’t include this type of coverage nor do we sell these policies, we
recommend to everyone to look into the benefits it provides. Access America
provides this type of coverage. There are many other companies that do
this at similar rates. Their phone number is
1-800-284-8300. |
