Summary of travel insurance

Travel insurance helps protect your trip investment when the unexpected happens. Coverage can include trip cancellations, delays, or interruptions, as well as lost or delayed baggage and emergency medical expenses while traveling. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or an international vacation, Allstate helps to make it easy to safeguard your plans and travel with peace of mind.

What is travel insurance?

Travel insurance may help reimburse you for unforeseen events while traveling. Depending on the type of plan you choose, it can help cover you domestically or internationally, and whether you’re traveling on a cruise, by plane or car.

Who needs travel insurance?

Travel insurance is suitable for anyone who wants protection in case a trip is canceled, luggage is stolen or a family member gets sick or injured on vacation. Travel insurance can be especially useful if you’re traveling outside the U.S., where your normal health plan might be limited. Hotels and activities are often paid for in advance, so having coverage in case plans fall through unexpectedly can help you to worry less and focus on your trip. And less worry is key when it comes to enjoying your vacation.

What does travel insurance cover?

Travel insurance can help cover those unexpected events that might interrupt, disrupt or cancel your trip. Depending on the protection you choose, travel coverage can help reimburse you for:

  • Trip cancellations
  • Trip interruptions
  • Stolen baggage or personal belongings
  • Baggage delays
  • Travel delays (including COVID quarantine)
  • Stolen sports or business equipment
  • COVID-related sickness or quarantine
  • Medical evaluation
  • Missed connecting flights
  • Rental vehicle damage

With travel insurance, you’re protected when the unexpected happens. Covered events include trip cancelations, medical emergencies, lost baggage and bad weather. Let us take care of the unexpected so you can focus on making memories.

Trip interruption

If your trip is cut short for unforeseen issues like bad weather, illness, or travel company mishaps, your policy may help reimburse you for resulting expenses.

Missed flight connection

If you miss a connection due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances, your policy may help cover extra transportation and meals needed to get to your destination.

Delayed, lost or damaged luggage

If your bag is delayed, your policy may reimburse you for personal items you need to purchase until your bag returns. If your bag is damaged, lost or stolen, your policy may also pay up to a certain amount to replace luggage and clothing.

Emergency medical coverage

If you experience a medical emergency while on vacation, your policy may cover expenses such as medical, dental and transportation to a facility. For major injuries, your policy may also cover an airlift transport and hospital stay.

Travel insurance plans

Allstate offers a variety of travel insurance options to make sure you are protected from unforeseen trip interruptions. Coverage options include trip cancellation insurance, senior travel insurance, cruise travel insurance and annual travel insurance plan.

How much does travel insurance cost?

The cost of travel insurance ultimately depends on factors such as your age, the total cost of your trip, and the type of protection you choose. However, travel insurance is generally affordable considering the coverage it provides. Below are some types of protection plans along with their starting costs.

Trip cancellation insurance starts at $8 and reimburses you for prepaid and non-refundable payments if your trip is canceled for any of the covered reasons mentioned above.

The Priority Plus plan starts at $20 and offers a wide range of coverage for unexpected interruptions or cancellations due to COVID. It also includes coverage for road closures caused by weather or natural disasters, such as:

  • Primary emergency medical coverage
  • Trip cancellation
  • Trip interruption coverage
  • Sickness coverage

Cruise travel insurance is a flexible, pre-existing plan that starts at $20. You have the option of increasing your baggage and travel delay coverage limits to $2,500 each for an additional cost. This includes delays related to COVID quarantine.

A multi-trip insurance plan may be good if you have multiple trips planned for the year. It’s an annual plan that starts at $81 and offers between $1,000 and $10,000 of trip cancellation coverage, plus a full list of other standard benefits. Upgrades include protection for:

  • Baggage coverage and baggage Delay
  • Rental car damage¹
  • Travel delay (including COVID quarantine)

When should I buy travel insurance?

It's typically a good idea to buy travel insurance when you begin booking flights and hotel accommodations – because unexpected things can come up before you even depart. If you want to include a waiver for pre-existing conditions, your policy may need to be purchased within 14 days of making an initial trip payment, depending on the plan.

And when you do buy a policy, make sure to have the following information handy:

  • Legal names and birthdates for all travelers
  • Your US address
  • Dates of travel
  • Destination
  • Total trip costs
  • Initial trip deposit date

No one wants to think about anything going wrong while on vacation. But having protection in place may make a difficult situation easier to handle. Get a quote and find travel protection tailored to you and your wallet.
