WHAT ARE TRAVEL INSURANCE AND
TRAVEL ASSISTANCE SERVICES

The purpose of travel insurance is to provide protection for travelers against the unique risks associated with travel, before trip departure and during the trip itself. Many of these risks, such as trip interruption, are not generally covered by any other insurance available to travelers.

CSAWebDirect© products consist of insurance and non-insurance components bundled in a single, comprehensive package. Emergency Assistance Services are an example of a non-insurance component.

Although travelers probably don't want to think about it, the plain fact is that travel involves some unique risks. In fact, travelers would be surprised by some of the things that could happen. Ask yourself the following questions:

Without travel insurance, could my clients miss their trip and lose their vacation investment, too?

Unfortunately, for the majority of travelers, the answer is yes. If they have to cancel or postpone their vacation, they will probably lose some, if not all, of the money they have pre-paid. They may be able to reschedule the vacation, but will they have the money to pay for it?

Without travel insurance, could it cost my clients extra money if they're forced to come home early?

Yes! It will probably cost your clients extra to return home. They will be paying a premium for last-minute airline tickets or exchange fees for existing tickets, plus they won't get any money back for the unused portion of their trip. Many times, the cost of interrupting the trip can exceed the actual trip cost.

Should my clients be concerned about medical insurance when they're away from home?

Definitely. Their medical coverage may be limited away from home, or they may not be covered at all. Therefore, it's wise for your clients to check on their medical coverage before they travel. Also, how will they find adequate medical facilities when they're traveling?

Travel plans are not complete until your clients protect themselves - and protect their investments - against these risks by choosing CSAWebDirect©.
