If your Trip is Canceled or Interrupted, Your Travel Investment is Protected
If you are like a lot of people these days, you don't just look forward to your vacations, you need them. A vacation is your opportunity to rest, relax, and recharge your
batteries. Or to catch up with friends and family. Unfortunately, many
things happen that might cause you to cancel your travel plans or cut
them short. Illness or injury. The death of a family member. The worst
part is, without adequate protection, you can lose your travel
investment. The Explorica Travel Protection Plan protects your
travel investment if your Trip is canceled or interrupted for a covered
reason such as injury, illness or death of you, a Family Member,
a Traveling Companion, a Business Partner, or due to a Terrorist Incident.
If you must interrupt
your Trip or return home early for a covered reason, the plan will
pay (up to the original cost of your Trip) for your unused land or
water Travel Arrangements, less any refund paid or payable, plus
the Additional Transportation Cost to return home or rejoin your Trip.
Medical Expense and Emergency Assistance Benefits Could Be a Real Lifesaver!
If you have a serious illness or injury,
the last thing you want to worry about is getting the care you need. The Explorica Travel Protection Plan gives you
peace of mind with benefits that cover, up to the plan's limits, everything
from medical expenses (incurred during your Trip) to special transportation (such as an air
ambulance) required for medical reasons.
Travel Delayed? You're OK!
You’ll be reimbursed up to $100 per day
(to a maximum of $500 total) for meals and accommodations if your Trip
is delayed for more than 12 hours for a covered reason.
Baggage Lost or Damaged? You're Protected!
It’s a traveler’s nightmare. You
arrive at your destination, but your baggage has disappeared. Or has
been stolen or damaged. What do you do? If you’re protected by the Explorica Travel Protection Plan, you’ll be reimbursed up to $2,000 to replace
or repair your lost or damaged luggage and personal articles.
Baggage
Delayed? Need Clothes and Toiletries? Count on us!

to help cover the cost of clothing, toiletries and/or personal items
if your baggage is delayed for more than 24 hours while you are on
your Trip.
