Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is a coverage designed to protect the traveller financially in the case of unforeseen travel interruption such as injury, illness, or death. It is usually purchased as an add-on provided by many travel providers or by the traveler themselves at financial institutions.

There are two main types of travel insurance coverage: travel medical insurance and trip protection insurance.

Our agent Artmiz was very knowledgeable and answered all of our hypothetical travel scenarios with ease. The premium savings were significant because Allianz offers "top-up" products to those of us who have existing coverage, but need more.

Sehar Bajwa helped me secure the additional top-up trip cancellation/interruption and baggage coverage (aka the non-medical package) for my upcoming vacation. She was knowledgeable, helpful, and quickly answered my questions. And when our call dropped she immediately called me back. It was a pleasure working with Sehar. She made shopping for and purchasing travel insurance simple and easy. Allianz (aka Alliance Income Services Corp) has the best value for travel insurance.

I was researching for a travel emergency medical plan for seniors. Allianz was on my list but I hadn't made contact as yet. I received a call back from Ummi Hanny of Alliance as a result of one of my queries and I'm delighted with the result. She listened and guided me through the process with great skill, knowledge and understanding. She forwarded a quote and afforded me time to consider the offer over the weekend and we would reconnect early the next week. This also gave me time to continue my research with a better understanding. which I much appreciated.We spoke on Tuesday and concluded the signing of the coverage offered through Alliance. It was the best plan for me, coverage wise, duration and financially. The fact that Alliance is a European based company is a plus as that is where I'm traveling as well as non U.S, based.Ummi's engaging style lead to these discoveries for me. She was attentive, knowledgeable, personable and genuine. She represents her organization extremely well and I would not hesitate to recommend Alliance and/or engage your service in the future.SincerelyJohn S. MacDonald

Why Do Canadians Need Travel Insurance?

We all love to travel, but are you prepared for the unexpected? Travel Insurance covers lost baggage, medical emergencies, personal item theft, and cancelled departures.

Depending on your Travel Insurance coverage, you will be partially or fully reimbursed for your unexpected travel related expenses. It is smart to purchase Travel Insurance as soon as you book your trip because you’re unlikely to find an insurer willing to provide you with a plan once you’ve begun your trip. Travel Insurance is vital, even if your trip is within Canada.

Types of Travel Insurance in Canada

There are Travel Insurance plans designed specifically for every possible travel related event which could lead to financial loss. You can mix and match these coverages, or you can purchase a Comprehensive Travel Insurance plan, which includes all coverages for complete peace of mind.

Medical Travel Insurance

Medical Travel Insurance covers expenses related to medical emergencies, injuries, and illnesses. There are two subcategories of Medical Travel Insurance: Single Trip Insurance plan and Multi-Trip Insurance plan.

Lost Baggage Insurance

Lost Baggage Insurance covers you in the event of lost and delayed luggage. The costs of replacement items and your suitcase will be reimbursed.

Trip Cancellation And Interruption Insurance

Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance protects you from costs due to cancellation fees and travel interruptions caused by bad weather, travel document hurdles, and family emergencies. With Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance, lost reservations, missed flights, and non-refundable tickets will no longer cause you significant financial loss.

All-Inclusive Travel Insurance

All-Inclusive Travel Insurance includes all of the benefits previously mentioned. Your premiums will be higher due to its extensive coverage.

How to Save Money on Travel Insurance?

We want to help you save your money. The best way to save money on Travel Insurance is to compare rates from multiple providers. This can be extremely time consuming. Luckily, Life Insurance Pro does all the hard work for you! By simply requesting a quote online through our website, we check what rates you can get from every major Canadian insurer.

Are You A Frequent Traveler?

Purchasing a Multi-Trip policy saves you money on your Travel Insurance if you travel at least twice per year.

Travelling With Family?

When you purchase Travel Insurance for at least 3 family members, you pay a reduced rate.

Are You A Snowbird?

It’s possible to receive reduced rates when you purchase your policy well in advance of your travels. Some insurers offer reduced rates in late summer and early fall.

Extending Your Trip

Rather than buying a new policy, contact your insurance issuer to top-up your plan.

More Travel Insurance FAQs

Travel insurance works similarly to other types of insurance. You will pay a premium in order to get benefits that will offset the costs of unexpected travel delays or emergencies.

Depending on your plan, your travel insurance will cover a portion or all of your expenses – from hotel reservation cancellation to non-refundable flight tickets to lost baggage.

Our travel insurance plan will vary by provider. However, travel insurance may cover a portion or all of the costs associated with travel emergencies and delays. These can include illness, ambulance services, lost belongings, tour cancellations, flight cancellations, delays due to weather, and more.

Travel insurance covers you and your belongings in the case of many issues or emergencies, including:

Injury
Trip delays
Lost baggage
Ambulance services
Illness
Trip cancellation
Medications
Medical emergencies

Like other types of insurance, rates will vary by provider and the type of coverage you need. Some factors that play a role in your travel insurance rate are:

Where you are traveling to
The kinds of activities you will be doing
How many people are traveling with you
How many past claims you have filed, if any
Your desired coverage

While some provinces have an arrangement regarding medical billing in case of out-of-province medical necessities, that’s not always the case. You’ll likely need to file a claim to regain your losses. Even in such a scenario, you may not be able to fully recover your incurred costs.

The reason is that the cost of medical procedures varies by province. Your provincial plan may cover a portion of your medical expenses, but still leave you with thousands of dollars that you need to pay out of pocket. You also won’t be covered for emergency transportation back home.

Taking all these factors into consideration, Travel Insurance can considerably reduce your expenses in case of medical emergencies even when travelling within Canada.
