Travelex has its strengths & quibbles:

Why Buy It?

Quibbles

The Travelex Plus has $500,000 and the TraveLite has $50,000 Primary Emergency Medical & Emergency Medical Evacuation / Repatriation.

The Emergency Medical coverage ends when you return to the USA if you're traveling outside the USA

Advance payment will be made to a Hospital, up to a maximum of $5,000, if needed to secure Your admission to a Hospital because of a covered Sickness or Injury which first occurs during the course of the Covered Trip.

The Rental Car CDW / LDW coverage is only valid when "the Rental Vehicle rented through the Travel Supplier with whom You booked Your trip and for which You declined a collision damage waiver" is the vehicle you are covering.

Travelex's pre-existing conditions' waiver and supplier financial default requires you to buy the plan within 21 days of your initial trip deposit date. Read the Evidence of Coverage for complete details.

The maximum pre-existing condition waiver amount for Medical Expense is $30,000 per person for the TraveLite plan & $50,000 per person for the Travel Plus plan.

Both Travelex plans have a 90 day Lookback Period for pre-existing conditions

Emergency Medical and Medical Evacuation / Repatriation is a combined limit per person.

The lowest trip cost you can cover is $0

Using a $0 trip cost makes the policy effective date the later of 12:01 am of your departure date or 12:01 am of the day after your purchase date.

The TraveLite plan is available to residents of any US State.

The Travel Plus plan is not available to residents of Kansas and New York.

TraveLite's maximum trip cost is $30,000 per person & Travel Plus' is $50,000 per person

The Maximum number of non-family members you can cancel or interrupt your trip for is limited to Four (4) people. See the travelling companions' definition for more information

You don't have to insure your full trip cost to get the pre-existing conditions' waiver

Travelex's Family Member definition says "provided the Family Member resides in the United States, Canada or Mexico"

You have a 10 day Free Look Period

Supplier financial default requires you book your trip through a third-party

Trip interruption is 150% of the covered trip cost.

 

Travelex's maximum trip length is 180 days.

 

Children under 16 are covered at no additional cost (except for optional plan add-ons) when accompanied by a covered adult. The children must be a Family Member of the primary insured.

 

If your travel supplier cancels the covered trip, you are covered up to $150 for the reissue fee charged by the airline for your tickets. You must have covered the entire trip cost of the covered trip including the airfare.

 

You can upgrade your TraveLite's Emergency Medical Benefits up to $150,000 each

 

If You purchased Your TraveLite or Travel Plus Insurance coverage within 21 days from the date You paid the initial deposit on Your Covered Trip, you can add the optional Cancel For Business Reasons Upgrade for $28 per person

Note this important wording on the Travelex Confirmation of Coverage (not in the Evidence of coverage): "The Maximum Waiver Amount for Medical Expense is $30,000 per person for the TraveLite plan" or "... $50,000 per person for the Travel Plus plan." What this means is that if you are buying a Travelex plan in the 21 day waiver period, your Pre-Existing Condition maximum limit is reduced to $30,000 per person for the TraveLite plan or $50,000 per person for the Travel Plus plan.

Here's How Travelex's Cancel For Business Reasons Upgrade Works:

If You purchased Your TraveLite or Travel Plus Insurance coverage with Trip Cancellation / Trip Interruption and within 21 days from the date You paid the initial deposit on Your Covered Trip, and insured 100% of your prepaid non-refundable trip cost and at the time of purchase included the Business Upgrade, You will receive:

1) Flight Accidental Death & Dismemberment coverage of $500,000; and

2) Additional Trip Cancellation/Trip Interruption coverage for the following unforeseen business/military reasons:

  • Direct involvement in an acquisition or merger by Your/Their employer, provided You/They are an active full-time employee of Your/Their employer at the time of such acquisition or merger;

  • Your/Their business location being unsuitable for business during Your Covered Trip by fire, vandalism, burglary or Natural Disaster. Natural Disaster means a disaster resulting from natural causes including flood, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, volcanic eruption or blizzard;

  • Other than military, You/They are required to work during Your Covered Trip. Proof such as a notarized statement signed by an officer of Your/Their employer must be provided;

  • Revocation of military leave that was granted prior to the purchase of this upgrade, or, military re-assignment after the purchase of this upgrade.

Their, They means Your spouse and/or Your Traveling Companion who has purchased the same Business Upgrade as You have.

Note: For any child to qualify for benefits under the Business Upgrade, coverage must be purchased and paid for each child covered.

The "Business Upgrade" includes ability to Cancel for Business Reasons and $500,000 Flight Accident Coverage. Its cost is $28 per person on the same policy.
