Travel Guard Insurance Review

The Good: This is a good, affordable, standard travel insurance plan with loads of options that let you customize the coverage for your trip. Select and pay only for the coverages you want.

The Drawbacks: The coverage limits are relatively low when compared to other plans, so if you encounter a truly disastrous situation on your trip, the coverage may not be enough. Trip cancellation and interruption relatively limited without the purchase of the Additional Covered Reasons Upgrade.

The Bottom Line: This plan is basic affordable travel insurance that covers the expected things: cancellations, interruptions, delays, lost luggage, medical and evacuations without a lot of thrills included in the base plan. You can, however, choose the extra coverages you want without paying for a lot of coverage you don’t need.
