Programs for U.S. Residents Traveling Internationally or Domestically
What is the Educational Travel Program?
This program is designed to offer innovative trip protection for travelers on educational trips. This includes students, faculty, staff, and chaperones.
As most schools already have travel medical and evacuation coverage, this program helps close the loop and provides robust protection for the financial investment inherent in domestic and foreign educational trips.
The program can accommodate trip lengths of up to 365 days. In addition, business travel for institutions and educational tour organizations may be permitted.
This program is particularly innovative because tuition may be included as an insurable trip cost.
What is included?
Common coverages include trip cancellation, trip interruption, baggage, and delay benefits.
The popular optional coverages Cancel for Any Reason (CFAR) and Interruption for Any Reason (IFAR) are available in most states. Additional terms and costs may apply to these optional coverages, and not all travelers will qualify.
What trips can be insured?
Our plans can accommodate trip lengths of up to 365 days. While our focus is primarily on educational travelers, staff, and chaperones – business travel, like conferences, for faculty and educational tour organizations may be permitted.
