October 19, 2011 By Damian Tysdal

travelguard-tee-tour-travelA few travel insurance providers know that some folks travel for very specific reasons and they’ve designed travel insurance plans with unique coverage for those types of travelers. For example, Travel Guard offers a unique travel insurance plan specifically for gold enthusiasts: the Tee, Tour, & Travel plan.

This plan includes a number of coverages expected in a travel insurance package plan, including:

  • Trip cancellation up to 100%
  • Trip interruption up to 150%

  • Missed connection up to $250
  • Medical expenses up to $25,000
  • Emergency medical evacuation up to $500,000
  • 24-hour AD&D up to $10,000

This plan is also customized to cover the risks faced by travelers who love playing golf. It includes the following golfer-specific benefits as well:

  • Equipment and baggage delay (12-hour minimum) up to $750

Plus, children age 17 and under are covered by the plan at no additional cost with all accompanying adults purchasing this coverage.
