When Can You Buy A Travel Insurance Plan?

by Steve Dasseos, The Trip Insurance Guru on April 9, 2008

Since we’ve already paid our final payment can we still get a Travel Insurance plan?

Yes, you can get a travel insurance plan any time until the day before you leave on the trip. Many people get well after their final payment dates. The cost doesn’t change, either.

One thing you can’t do is wait until something unexpected happens and then rush out to buy a policy to cover that event. That’s because travel insurance only covers “unexpected events”.

It’s funny, but you’d be surprised how many calls we get from people when there’s some major bad weather forecasted. They ususally start with “I kept forgetting to buy travel insurance and now I want to order a plan for my trip starting in 3 days”. Of course, we tell them that that event won’t be covered.

Go here to learn what else is or isn’t covered.
