When you’re laying out your (or your parents’) hard-earned cash for a non-refundable airline ticket and a hotel room in Mexico, Florida, or wherever you’ve planned to spend your spring break, you might want to spend a few extra bucks to protect your investment, as well as yourself and your belongings, while traveling away from home.
NEW YORK--(COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Feb 12, 2001--Travel protection is a growing industry in the United States, because more and more people lose money when they need to cancel a trip. For instance, the traveler or a family member becomes seriously ill and the trip needs to be cancelled. In most cases, the money invested in the trip is lost.
One of the industry leaders, Access America, has devised a complete travel protection program and priced it particularly low for travelers under the age of 30. For just $25 dollars, you can cover a trip that costs up to $500, while $34 covers a trip that costs between $501 and $1,000, and $42 a trip of $1,001 to $1,500.
Called Travel With Ease, Access America’s coverage includes: trip cancellation/interruption protection; emergency medical and dental coverage while you’re away (up to $10,000); emergency medical transportation (up to $20,000), if you’re injured or get ill while away and you have to be evacuated and then flown back home; lost baggage coverage ($500); delayed baggage coverage ($200); travel delay coverage ($200) and missed connection coverage ($500).
Access America is a division of World Access Service Corp., a member of the Mondial Assistance Group, the world`s largest travel insurance and assistance company. World Access provides travel insurance products and emergency assistance services through the nation`s top travel agencies, credit card issuers and insurance companies. The company protects more than 100 million Americans every year, as they travel on both domestic and international trips.
