The primary benefit of purchasing travel insurance is to protect against trip cancellations caused by medical/dental emergencies. For instance, if you become ill shortly before your trip and your doctor recommends against flying, trip cancellation insurance will reimburse your non-refundable deposits for eligible medical reasons.
Trip interruption and delays are also covered. If your flight is canceled or delayed, causing you to miss a connection, travel insurance can protect you from non-refundable penalties. It can also cover additional expenses, such as overnight stays.
If you fall seriously ill in a remote location and need hospitalization, trip insurance covers medical evacuation. Additionally, MedJet Assist offers policies allowing you to choose your hospital anywhere in the world.
Cancellation protection also applies if there is a death or serious illness in your immediate family, requiring you to stay home or return home early.
Our insurance partners provide adaptable policies and exceptional customer service. You can reach out to us for a quote or create your own and purchase travel protection online through our dedicated Travelex Insurance page.
Medjet complements travel insurance; it doesn't replace it. When you're hospitalized more than 150 miles from home, most travel insurance and credit card benefits will only transport you to the “nearest acceptable facility” for recovery. Medjet stands out by allowing you to choose to recover at home, in the hospital of your choice, with the doctors you know and trust. With medical transport costs ranging from $30,000 to $180,000, why take the risk? Medjet is the leading air-medical transport and travel security membership program for travelers. Accidents, illnesses, and safety concerns can occur anywhere. Medjet ensures you can get home even when you are over 150 miles away. Medjet is an excellent option for comprehensive coverage in security and critical medical situations. They specialize in emergency medical transportation, crisis response, and travel security services. Travelers with children particularly value the abduction and ransom protection features.
