Why Buy Travel Protection?

Travel protection is designed to cover your travel arrangements, your belongings and, most importantly, you against a variety of unforeseeable reasons that may affect you or your travel plans.

Emergencies happen when you least expect it. The World Nomads Travel Protection Plans include coverage for Trip Cancellation or Interruption, Missed Connection and Travel Delay, Medical Emergencies; Baggage (loss, damage or delay) and much more. Plus, we also offer our exclusive One Call 24-hour Traveler Assistance Service to help you with emergency situations that arise during your trip.

Many travel products are non-refundable, and the best airline and cruise deals usually come with few options if you can't actually take your trip. Last week the airline joyfully booked your flight. This week it declared bankruptcy. Last month you reserved space on a tour. A few weeks later a family member became critically ill.

Baggage/Personal Effects Loss

You've heard it before, leave your valuables at home! But sometimes an expensive camera or formal suit taken on the trip is lost or stolen. Your homeowner's policy may cover only a small portion of the total loss.

Medical/Dental Coverage

Does your health or dental insurance cover you away from home? Many plans offer little or no coverage for on-trip medical bills. Our plans cover on-trip medical expenses and also provide coverage for medical transportation costs if you must be medically evacuated for appropriate care.

Trip Cancellation or Interruption

Do you want to protect your prepaid trip costs if you must cancel or interrupt your trip? Trip Cancellation and Interruption protects the financial investment you’ve made in your travel arrangements against a variety of unforeseeable reasons, both medical and non-medical, that may affect you or your travel plans.

Terrorist Incidents

Terrorist Incidents that disrupt travel plans are an unfortunate reality. If your trip is affected by an unforeseen Terrorist Incident, we have plans to help minimize the financial loss that you may incur.
