FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who benefits most from buying annual travel insurance?

Annual travel insurance is ideal for individuals who travel frequently throughout the year, such as business travelers, digital nomads, or vacationers taking three or more trips. It provides year-round medical and evacuation coverage without requiring a new policy purchase for every departure.

Does annual travel insurance cover trip cancellation costs?

No, multi-trip annual plans such as TravelCare Expedition do not include Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, or Travel Delay benefits. If you need protection for prepaid non-refundable trip costs, a single-trip plan like Elite Protect is recommended.

Are there state restrictions for buying annual travel insurance?

Yes, state availability depends on your state of residence. For example, TravelCare Expedition annual multi-trip coverage is not available to residents of New York, Washington, or South Carolina.

What medical limits are provided on an annual travel plan?

UnderTravelCare Expedition, covered travelers receive up to $500,000 for Emergency Accident and Sickness Medical Expense paid as primary coverage, along with $500,000 for Medical Evacuation per trip. Always review policy terms for specific state variations and coverage details.
