How do I know how much insurance to purchase?

Before purchasing Travel Insurance, you should first determine how much insurance you should purchase. This policy is based on 2 factors; the age of the insured at the time of travel and total cost of the travel program being insured.

For example, a traveller 30 years of age taking a trip with a value of $2000 can secure all of the coverage shown above for only $77. That same traveller would pay $151 for a trip valued at $4000.

Total the cost of all of the trip components you are purchasing: Airfare, hotels, car rentals etc.
(If you purchased a Build-Your-Own Vacation cruise of 5-nights or longer from Friendly Planet, you do not need to add in that cost as the cruise includes insurance coverage at no additional cost.)

Once you have the total cost of your trip, proceed to the Insurance Purchase Page and follow the instructions. Access America will forward you all of the necessary information regarding the policy being purchased.

Existing Medical Conditions Exclusions & Coverage:

Your plan may provide Existing Medical Conditions Coverage if you, a traveling companion or family member has an Existing Medical Condition. An Existing Medical Condition is an illness or injury that exhibited symptoms or was treated for any time 120 days prior to purchasing this plan.

Coverage for an Existing Medical Condition is excluded unless:

1. You purchase your coverage within 14 days of making your first trip payment or first trip deposit
2. You purchased coverage that covers the full cost of all non-refundable trip components
3. You are a U.S. resident and are medically able to travel on the day you purchase the coverage
4. The total cost of your trip is $20,000 per person or less.
5. All other contract terms and conditions apply.

Supplier Default Coverage:

Supplier Default coverage covers situations where a carrier, cruise line, tour operator or other travel entity goes into financial default.

Supplier Default coverage is provided when:

1. You purchase your coverage within 14 days of making your first trip payment or first trip deposit
2. The financial default occurs more than 7 days after the plan's effective date
3. The travel supplier is listed as a covered supplier by Access America

BizPack Coverage:

With the Classic Plan, clients who have to cancel or interrupt their trip due to business reasons are covered for their loss when they purchase this optional coverage. Covered reasons are: required to work, business/ company merger, and business unsuitable due to fire, natural disaster or burglary. Coverage must be purchased within 14 days of the initial trip deposit/payment to make this feature effective.
