Want to travel, but concerned about all the trip delays you're hearing about in the news? You're not alone. A recent CAA Club Group survey found that 72 percent of Members worried about travel delays. Those ongoing service disruptions at home and abroad mean travel insurance is more important than ever. Kellee Irwin, CAA Club Group vice president, provides insights on when, and why, to make sure you're covered before you set out.

When is the best time to purchase travel insurance?

For most of us, taking a trip is a big investment. By purchasing travel insurance at the time of booking the trip, you can feel confident that you and your family are protected.

What is the biggest misconception surrounding travel insurance right now?

That all types of travel insurance are the same. Since the emergence of COVID-19 , many providers have excluded certain coverage related to the virus, while others require travellers to purchase specific COVID-related policies. CAA has not restricted its travel insurance due to COVID-19. In fact, our core coverage has been enhanced to ensure everyone can travel confidently, knowing they're protected.
