Do I Need Travel Insurance
Do I Need Travel Insurance?
The answer is almost always YES, especially when traveling outside the United States. Even the best-planned trip can be disrupted by the unexpected. Illness or injury, flight delays and cancellations, lost or delayed baggage, severe weather, or an emergency back home can quickly turn a wonderful vacation into an expensive situation.
When traveling internationally, travel insurance can be especially important. Your health insurance may provide limited coverage—or no coverage at all—outside the United States, and emergency medical treatment or evacuation can be extremely costly. At Sue Smith Vacations, we strongly recommend protecting your vacation investment with travel insurance. You insure your home, your car and your health—your vacation is an investment worth protecting, too.
