Angela Explains the Value of Travel Insurance

Angela recently spoke with Travel Weekly about the importance of comprehensive travel insurance coverage. After years of experience in the travel industry, she understands that anything can happen, so it's always best to be prepared.

Here's what she had to say:

“I train my agents to always offer travel insurance because I think everybody needs it; there are so many incidents that can happen – from the death of a loved one, to a heart attack, to dying on the trip – that makes having travel insurance benefits super important. A honeymoon couple in their 20s doesn't need what a 70-year-old needs, and there can be a difference when they buy it themselves versus buying it through the cruise line or tour operator. In some cases, the cruise lines’ waiver may not extend to an expensive pre- and post-package; it just applies to that cruise piece, not their air or the additional 10 days they added on. So, if they’ll be in Tanzania, they may want more evacuation coverage or extra rental car insurance in Europe.”

Travel insurance offers people the peace of mind that they will be taken care of in case of an unexpected emergency. Angela understands that this peace of mind is just one of the factors that can make a luxury travel experience that much better.
