Ski travel insurance plans are designed to help cover your adventures down the slopes. Whether you’re about to enjoy a New England winter or glide down The Alps, Travel Guard has plans to help cover your ski vacation.

If your ski vacation does take you out of the country, remember your U.S. health insurance plan may not cover you while traveling internationally.

What is a ski travel insurance plan?

Ski travel insurance plans provide travelers with coverage for ski vacations including baggage coverage for sporting or ski equipment that you are bringing with you. Typically ski travel insurance plans offer higher benefit limits for baggage knowing that you’re likely traveling with extra gear. It’s also important to make sure there are no extreme sport exclusions on your travel insurance plan, so you’re covered if you get injured while skiing.

What does a ski travel insurance plan cover?

Travel Guard offers customizable travel insurance plans for your ski vacation. Look for a plan that has the coverage and benefits limits you need. Popular plan features include:

  • Medical expense coverage – your U.S. health plan may not cover you out of country
  • Travel inconvenience benefit – a one-time payment for covered inconveniences you encounter on your trip like a closed attraction due to lack of snow (included with certain plans)
  • Emergency travel assistance – specialized representatives are available day or night to assist with unexpected travel issues
  • Lodging expense – coverage for certain reentry requirements into the U.S. (optional add-on coverage available on certain plans)

Do I need a ski travel insurance plan?

It’s smart to cover your travel investment on any vacation, and that’s especially true for your ski vacation. When you’re traveling to a snowy destination, inclement weather can become a problem for your trip whether you’re traveling in the air or on the roads. Plus, you’ll want to make sure you’re covered for certain medical expenses you may encounter on your travels – especially if your vacation is outside the U.S.

With a Travel Guard travel insurance plan your travel investment can be protected, and you have access to our specially trained representatives for 24-hour travel emergency assistance. A missed flight doesn’t have to mean missing out on skiing – our representatives will work to help you through any unexpected travel mishaps.

Which Travel Guard travel insurance plan is best for my ski trip?

Travel Guard has a variety of options to help protect your trip depending on the coverage you need. For ski vacations, having Travel Guard’s Adventure Sports Bundle is going to be important, and that coverage is available as an optional add-on with both our Deluxe and Preferred plans. Travel Guard’s Deluxe plan has the highest benefit limit for baggage coverage. If you’re bringing any ski equipment or gear with you, the higher limit might be a good idea.  

No matter which Travel Guard insurance plan you choose, you’ll have access to our specially trained representatives for 24/7 emergency travel assistance.

How much is a ski travel insurance plan?

Typically, a travel insurance plan costs 5-7% of your total trip cost, meaning that your overall cost will depend on the details of your vacation, including if you add additional coverage to your insurance plan. If you’re planning a ski vacation, you’ll most likely want to include Travel Guard’s Adventure Sports bundle to ensure you have coverage for more extreme activities.

What is the best travel insurance plan for families going on a ski vacation?

Travel Guard’s Deluxe Plan includes our highest benefit limits for our coverages including medical expense coverage, trip cancellation, trip interruption, missed connection and more. With add-ons like our Adventure Sports bundle, you’ll have even more coverage for the whole family on your ski vacation.

“I was riding a luge in Rotorua, New Zealand when my phone flew out of my pocket and landed in the lane of the next rider. It was crushed! My Travel Guard insurance paid $500 to help cover cost of my new phone. Very happy customer!”
