Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection (BHTP) is committed to providing travelers with trip protection that is simpler and smarter than ever before. BHTP has an innovative claim platform that lets travelers initiate a claim with a simple picture from their mobile device. And, if that claim is brought to fulfillment, Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection works to get a traveler reimbursed faster.

About

When you purchase a plan from Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection (BHTP), you are protecting your trip with a comprehensive travel insurance plan you can depend on.

It’s hard to ignore BHTP’s commitments to the travelers who purchase their plans. BHTP communicates the way you communicate; whether that’s through social media, online chat, email, text or a phone call. BHTP is there for you, no matter the reason, in a way that best fits your busy life.

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection works hard to streamline the claims process to reimburse their travelers faster than ever. With the snap of a photo, your claim (such as a claim for a lost or stolen bag) can be launched through your mobile device.

If that claim, or any other, is approved, you’ll be waiting less time for that reimbursement – getting that money directly deposited into the account of your choice. Gone are the days of having to wait for a paper check that needs to be endorsed and deposited into your account. With Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection’s electronic payments, you can receive your money faster so you can get back to your trip.

The comprehensive benefits that are included, as well as optional coverages and upgrades available to most travelers, make the Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection plans an excellent choice for travelers. For instance, if you purchase the plan within 15 days of your initial trip payment, you’ll most likely be eligible to include:

  • pre-existing condition waiver
  • trip cancellation and interruption due to financial default

Still unsure? Every BHTP plan includes a 15-Day Free Look, meaning, you have 15 days to decide if the plan is the right plan for you and your trip.

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection (BHTP) is a registered trademark and a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company (BHSI), a leader in specialized casualty and liability insurance.

The plan seemed reasonable but since I had no issues with the travel and didn't need to file a claim, I can't comment on the value of the policy other than to say it was easy to purchase and I felt it gave the coverage I needed.

Our experience was incredibly frustrating—entirely unhelpful and slow with our claim. We traveled to Spain and Austria this summer for a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna, which was unfortunately canceled. Hoping to redirect our funds to a different concert, we tried canceling the trip in advance, expecting our travel policy to cover some costs. They told us there was nothing they could do, so we ultimately went on the trip but adjusted our itinerary slightly and ended up losing money. On our way home, our bags were delayed several days. We submitted the claim including for baggage delay in August but heard nothing until late October, when we finally received an email that said "see attached claim determination"—with no attachment. I replied, asking them to resend the attachment, but got no response. After two more weeks, I called and they finally sent the letter. Why did I even buy this policy?

We were lucky enough to not need to use our plan but we had in if we needed it.
