Flu Season Prompts the Need for Travel Insurance Reports InsureMyTrip.com
(Warwick, RI December 12, 2004) - Online travel insurance provider InsureMyTrip.com,
Online travel insurance provider InsureMyTrip.com advises travelers to include trip cancellation protection in their travel plans during this busy holiday season. Traveler concerns over limited flu vaccinations and the medical community discussions of a potential near-term pandemic have flooded our call center with questions regarding coverage. Trip cancellation coverage, provided by travel insurance package policies, is the best way to protect your vacation investment.
"Every year at this time we respond to a multitude of calls from consumers concerned about securing coverage for their holiday travels," reports Jim Grace, President of InsureMyTrip.com. "This year travelers are very concerned about a possible outbreak of the flu. Calls have increased significantly, heightened by the limited supply of flu vaccines and predictions of a brutally harsh and cold winter."
From the flu to weather related delays and cancellations, the holiday season amplifies the perils of traveling. "One of the most important messages that we can relay to consumers is to purchase travel insurance within 7 to 21 days of their initial trip payment date." states Grace. "If you purchase in this period, you get the complete complement of benefits including the pre-existing medical conditions waiver and bankruptcy protection. The longer people wait to purchase insurance, the more likely an illness may occur which would not be covered at all," exclaimed Grace.
InsureMyTrip.com allows consumers to rate, compare, analyze and buy travel insurance from all the leading travel insurance companies, all in a completely secure environment. To learn more about these protection plans, call the InsureMyTrip travel insurance professionals at 800-487-4722 or visit them online at www.insuremytrip.com
