Summer travel season is herd you may have noticed. Mord welcome back it is time for consumer watch weekend segment. Summer travel season is here and you may notice more in life and travel Companies Offering insurance at the time of purchase. Is it worth it. It turns out the most cases probably not. She expected it would be smooth sailing when she and her husband booked a cruise through her husband, moderate cal berkeley. Unfortunately bob died unexpectedly before they were able to take the trip so she asked the coveney for a refund. When my husband passed away it should not be any question that full refund are being made. She says cal Discovery Travel was only willing to refund half of the payments and told her if she wanted to more one in which he should have tried purchased travel insurance. They will try to connect it to a preexisting condition. Most basic policies do not cover cancellations due to Health Issues when travelers have a preexisting condition. They would of likely found in bobs case. Though she says in some cases, specifically with of trips both well in advance the right kind of travel insurance can pay off. Travel insurance can be a good investment. If you want protection for medical issues, civil unrest, bad weather or because you change your mind, you need to we the fine prince a get a policy including the specific coverages which are often more expensive and kincaid warns be cautious of travel waivers often pitched by coveney says the type of travel protection, waivers are not the same as insurance and do not come with the same protections.

Com. Travel industry contends only one in five travelers who spares medical emergencies have trip insurance implying maybe more people should get it but of course we know it does not always pay off so joining us today is amy of you not is the policy holders to guide us through the in and out of travel insurance. Becky for being here. Thank you for having me ask you have an expert in at the consumer advocate first things first, one is it worth it to buy travel insurance . Well, certainly if you are booking an expensive trip well in advance, things happen. Right. If you are going to a new area where there has been civil unrest and theres a possibility it could boil up again. Or terrorist alert. Or booking with a new company that does not have a lot of experience and may not have anticipated something could go wrong, those are conditions. Maybe a new travel company or someone doing a group trip. Right i think the more you spend on the trip, the stronger the case is to buy it. But like with all insurance, there are a lot of limitations you want to look out for in your situation. So one place you can buy it, ive seen airlines lately when i bought a ticket on delta it says do you want travel insurance and asks are you sure and i thought i wonder how much that really pays off. Should you buy insurance like that and if not, where should you buy travel insurance . There is a lot of really useful permission on sites specific to letting you compare travel policies. Likely encourage people not to buy Car Insurance at a dealership, for example, because we want people to have options and you will not get options if you buy at the delta site. They have one relationship you want to go to website that allows you to compare. Or brokers they can help. Absolutely. And with any insurance product, travel insurance can be tricky but there are specific things you want to watch for with travel insurance, pre existing conditions, extent of coverage and posing as insurance that are not insurance. Lets start with the extensive coverage, how should you be concerned about how much insurance want to get . The amount, have enough to cover the cost of the trip itself and Airline Tickets if you have to cancel like the story. One of the most valuable things that travel insurance could help with is if you get injured, sick. And the cost of getting your back. And getting your medical care. Do they cover that because there are exclusions, is that one . Preexisting condition inclusion is a big one. If you have a condition and you do not you can buy a waiver or an addon, im sorry, that can cover your preexisting condition but you have to be educated enough to know to look for it and pay for it. And you mentioned with plans, warranties, waivers which are not actually insurance so you dont have the same protections under California Law as you would for actual insurance plans. Regular joining us today. Thank you make. I have a gift for you, travel kit to keep you going on your adventures. Thank you. We will be back.
