As you know, I always strongly recommend travel insurance.

The truth is, only you can decide if it's right for you. My job is to simply make sure you have the information needed to make an informed decision.

When you book a trip, you're not just paying for a vacation. You're investing in memories, experiences, and time with the people you love. For many families, a vacation is something they've planned and saved for months - or even years.

Unfortunately, life doesn't always go according to plan.

What happens if you get sick before your cruise? What if a family emergency prevents you from traveling? What if your flight is delayed and you miss the ship? What if your luggage doesn't arrive when you do? What if you have a medical emergency while on your vacation?

These situations are rare, but they can and do happen. I can't prevent travel disruptions, but I can help you be prepared for them.

Many people assume their health insurance, credit card, or travel supplier will cover everything. Unfortunately, that's not always the case - especially when traveling outside the United States.

Travel protection programs are designed to help provide protection for certain unexpected events before and during your trip. Depending on the situation and policy terms, benefits may include trip cancellation coverage, travel delay assistance, baggage protection, medical coverage, emergency evacuation benefits, and more.

As your travel advisor, I never want fear to be the reason you purchase travel protection. I simply want you to understand your options and make the choice that is best for you and your family.

Personally, I view travel protection the same way I view car insurance or homeowners' insurance. We hope we never need it, but we're grateful it's there if we do.

My hope is that your trip is completely uneventful - in the best possible way! But if the unexpected happens, having travel protection can provide an extra layer of peace of mind.

You've worked hard to make an investment in your vacation. Let's protect it.
