Who Is Eligible For Coverage

A person who has arranged to take a Trip, and pays the required premium, and is a citizen or resident of the U.S.A. or Canada.

When Coverage Begins

All coverages (except Pre-Departure Trip Cancellation and Post-Departure Trip Interruption) will take effect on the later of 1) the date the premium has been received; 2) the date and time you start your Trip; or 3) 12:01 A.M. Standard Time on the Scheduled Departure Date of your Trip. Pre-Departure Trip Cancellation coverage will take effect on the date your premium is received. Post-Departure Trip Interruption coverage will take effect on the Scheduled Departure Date of your Trip if the required premium payment is received.

When Coverage Ends

Your coverage automatically ends on the earlier of: 1) the date the Trip is completed; 2) the Scheduled Return Date; 3) your arrival at the return destination on a round-trip, or the destination on a one-way trip; 4) cancellation of the Trip covered by the Policy. Termination of the policy will not affect a claim for loss that occurs after premium has been paid.

All coverages under the policy will be extended if your entire Trip is covered by the policy and your return is delayed by unavoidable circumstances beyond your control. If coverage is extended for the above reasons, coverage will end on the earlier of the date you reach your originally scheduled return destination or seven (7) days after the Scheduled Return Date.
