Hurricane season 2019 is officially here. With summer vacations upon us, one of the most important steps to staying safe is by purchasing a travel protection plan. While travel protection solely to guard against the disruptions caused by a hurricane is not available from Travel Insured, purchasing a plan with coverage that can help protect against many of the inconveniences that hurricanes can cause can be helpful.
It’s hard to forget the record-setting hurricane season we had in 2017. Though we hope such a severe hurricane season won’t happen again this year, it can serve as a reminder that the weather isn’t something we can control or predict. Your travel plans could be disrupted by a storm, and that’s why travel insurance is a good idea for any travel plans, especially during the summer months.
Winter is on its way and as we all know, it can be one of the most difficult times of year to travel. In the winter months, it is important to take certain precautionary steps if you are traveling including being prepared for cancellations and delays, as well as keeping you and your travel companions safe. We wanted to provide you with some helpful tips to ensure you will have the most holiday travel season as possible no matter the ice, snow, or sleet that may show up unexpectedly during the upcoming months.
With hurricane season in full swing, we wanted to take a moment to recommend the following tips to protect your home and family and minimize costly damage from potentially dangerous storms and hurricanes.
A storm can put a damper on your travel plans. When a devastating hurricane hits, people tend to hear about messy travel delays and cancellations, but as time passes they forget about that impact on travel plans. Though science tries to predict what each hurricane season will be like, it’s still mostly unpredictable, which is why a travel protection plan can be useful!
It’s the beginning of hurricane season once again, starting June 1st and ending on November 30th. You can’t predict if a hurricane will ruin your travel plans, so it’s important to travel prepared. This is especially important since hurricane season lasts for half of the year and falls during the busy summer travel season. Luckily, travel insurance can help to protect your travel plans. Here are some tips on how travel insurance could help you during hurricane season.

At the last minute, a trip you planned months ahead of time can be delayed due to some unforeseen circumstances such as inclement weather, an accident, or losing some of your most important personal belongings. Avoiding these mishaps is sometimes impossible, but that doesn’t mean you have to be stuck in an airport and miserable with no place to go and nothing to eat. Being delayed is not only stressful, but can also be expensive when you are thrown off track and often have to make arrangements you wouldn’t have otherwise had to such as meals, accommodations and alternative transportation costs. Luckily, trip delay travel coverage can save the day and provide the opportunity to be reimbursed up to a certain percentage of unexpected costs you end up paying for when your trip has been delayed.
