Do I need a senior travel insurance plan?
Every traveler is unique in their travel insurance need, and seniors are no exception. Whether traveling across the country to visit grandkids or taking the trip of a lifetime overseas, having the right travel insurance plan is important. In addition to customizable plans, all of Travel Guard’s travel insurance plans come with access to our specially trained representatives for 24/7 emergency travel assistance. Our representatives can help with anything from rebooking missed flights to finding quality medical care while you’re traveling – so you can focus on making the most of your vacation time.
Which Travel Guard travel insurance plan is best for my vacation as a senior?
Travel Guard’s Deluxe, Preferred and Essential plans all include our pre-existing medical condition exclusion waiver if you purchase your travel insurance within 15 days of making your first trip deposit. With the waiver, you can be covered for certain pre-existing medical conditions that otherwise may have been excluded. Our Deluxe Plan offers the highest benefit limits for coverages like medical expense coverage, baggage and trip interruption, which may appeal to you based on the trip you’re taking.
Do I need a senior travel insurance plan if I have Medicare?
Usually, Medicare does not cover health care while you’re traveling outside of the U.S., so a travel insurance plan that offers medical expense coverage can be a good idea if you’re leaving the country. In addition to medical expense coverage, Travel Guard’s travel insurance plans offer trip cancellation and 24/7 emergency travel assistance so you can travel with greater peace of mind. It’s always best to check the coverage details of your specific Medicare plan for complete coverage information.
How much does a senior travel insurance plan cost?
Pricing for our travel insurance plans is calculated using several different individual factors, ensuring that you have the proper coverage that you need for your trip. For this reason, the price of travel insurance plans can vary. If you have a rough idea of your trip details, get a quote now to see how much a travel insurance plan could cost for your trip.

Reviews and Testimonials
“Thank you again for all your help and for getting us the refund for our trip.”
We had to cancel our trip since my husband’s 93-year-old aunt had to be hospitalized and was in very critical condition. My husband has power of attorney for her health care, so we couldn’t go on our trip as planned. We always use Travel Guard when we travel and have always been very pleased with your service. When I contacted you that we needed to cancel our trip, the representative made it easy and clear what was expected from me to substantiate my claim request. The claim was processed very quickly. I will always use Travel Guard for all of our travel insurance needs and will continue to recommend you to our family and friends. Thank you again for all your help and for getting us the refund for our trip. You’re a great company to work with!
