I read thru the link for the Travelex policy kindly provided by Steven Ting and I found not one word about reimbursement for maintenance fee coverage in the event that you are ordered to evacuate. If it isn’t described I could easily see the carrier denying the claim. Your experience suggests otherwise. For those of us that drive to our destination resorts, flights, hotels, baggage claims mean nothing. That seems to be the bulk of the coverage. Please elucidate. Thanks.
Quotes from 2019 policy:
Trip Interruption Benefits: The Company will reimburse the Insured up to the
Maximum Limit shown in the Schedule for Trips that are interrupted due
to the Unforeseen events shown above for:
(a) Unused portion of non-refundable pre-paid insured
Trip Cost and/or
property upgrades to the Trip, and
(b) additional transportation expenses incurred by the Insured, either
(1) to the Return Destination; or
(2) from the place that the Insured left the Trip to the place that the
Insured may rejoin the Trip; and
(c) additional transportation expenses incurred by the Insured to reach the
original Trip Destination if the Insured is delayed and leaves after the
Departure Date.
However, the benefit payable under (b) and (c) above will not exceed the cost
of economy airfare or the same class as the Insured’s original ticket, less any
refunds paid or payable, by the most direct route.
Definition of
Trip Cost:
“Trip Cost” means the
amounts paid to the Property Management Company
and/or the Travel Arranger for the Trip. Trip Cost also includes pre-paid, nonrefundable
airfare and rental car charges booked independently of the
Property Management Company and/or Travel Arranger.
Any
Maintenance Charges (1) accumulated or deposited from previous years
prior to purchase of the Plan; or (2) borrowed from future use-years or use
rights; are not covered, unless the Insured is
enrolled in a Policy for each
specific use-year or use rights term desired and premium has been received by the Company.
