Travel is inherently risky, and so insurance can safeguard you from certain financial losses that often occur while traveling. If you have to cancel your beach rental for a covered reason, for example, trip cancellation/interruption benefits can reimburse you for your non-refundable, pre-paid trip costs (up to the amount of your plan limits). If your snowboarding gear gets stolen during your winter vacation, baggage loss/damage benefits can reimburse you for the loss. Depending on the plan you choose, travel insurance also can reimburse eligible medical costs in case of a covered medical or dental emergency; reimburse you for losses caused by a covered travel delay or baggage delay; protect you from paying for rental car damage or loss; and help in other situations as well.
When you’re renting a car, even a tiny fender-bender can get really expensive. You may have to pay the deductible on your own collision insurance, as well as a loss of use charge from the rental car company — not to mention the higher insurance rates following an at-fault accident. The OneTrip Rental Car Protector can cover costs up to $50,000 if a car you're renting is stolen or is damaged in a covered accident or while it's left unattended. There’s no deductible and no need to file a claim with your car insurance company. You also get trip interruption benefits and baggage loss/damage benefits up to $1,000.
(The OneTrip Rental Car Protector does not include liability insurance. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. Please see your plan for full details. Benefits/coverage may vary by state, and sublimits may apply.)
Non-refundable costs include pre-paid trip deposits/payments that would be lost if you had to cancel for a covered reason prior to trip departure. Some examples may include vacation rental costs, campground fees; rental car fees; tickets for tours or events; and hotel and airline ticket costs. Be sure to consult your travel suppliers to determine which costs are non-refundable for your particular trip, as cancellation policies vary.
Depending on the plan you choose, travel insurance can provide benefits for a number of situations that may occur before or during your trip. These benefits may include:
For definitions of these terms, please click here.
Note: Not all plans include each benefit listed here. Please see the Certificate of Insurance/Policy for terms, conditions, and exclusions.
That depends on your budget, your destination and your specific situation. If your biggest worry is protecting your vacation investment in case of a last-minute cancellation or trip interruption, then you need a plan with trip cancellation/interruption benefits. If you’re more concerned about mishaps that occur while traveling — such as baggage loss or delay, or trip delays — look for a plan with post-departure benefits. And to protect yourself in case of a medical emergency while traveling, we recommend a plan that includes emergency medical and emergency medical transportation benefits.

Your travel insurance plan covers only people who are named insured — that is, named in the plan. Family members and/or travel companions are not covered unless they’re named in your plan documents. If you purchase the OneTrip Prime or OneTrip Premier plan, kids 17 and under are covered free when traveling with a parent or grandparent (not available on policies issued to Pennsylvania residents). The AllTrips Premier plan also can cover an entire household on a single plan.
Your travel insurance benefits do not cover pets. However, we include service animals (as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act) in our definition of “family members,” so any benefits that apply to family members would also apply to service animals. Emotional support animals or therapy animals are not considered service animals by the ADA.
Travel insurance from Allianz Global Assistance does not cover losses resulting from normal pregnancy or childbirth, except as expressly covered under Trip Cancellation Coverage. Specifically, if you find out that you are pregnant after purchasing your travel insurance plan, that can be considered a covered reason for trip cancellation.
While normal pregnancy and childbirth are not covered, unforeseen pregnancy complications may be a covered reason for trip cancellation or interruption. The medical condition you’re experiencing must be disabling enough to make a reasonable person cancel their trip, and a doctor must advise you to cancel it. If your plan includes emergency medical benefits, your insurance may reimburse you for the cost of emergency medical care that you received for those covered complications while traveling.

Before traveling overseas, it’s wise to ask your health insurance provider if your coverage travels with you. Medicare generally does not offer coverage overseas, and hospitals in other countries often require cash payments up front. Also, very few health insurance companies pay for your medical evacuation back to the United States, as the U.S. Department of State explains. This is why it’s so important to have travel insurance with emergency medical and emergency medical transportation benefits.

Trip cancellation benefits can reimburse your prepaid, nonrefundable trip payments if you have to cancel your trip for one of the covered reasons stated in your plan documents. If a hurricane floods your beach house; if a family member falls ill right before your vacation; or if you fracture your ankle right before your golf getaway, those all can be covered reasons for canceling your trip and getting reimbursed.
Other examples of covered reasons may include: sudden covered medical emergencies; the birth of a family member’s child; the death of a travel companion or family member; financial default of a covered airline, cruise line or tour operator; legal separation or divorce; or jury duty. Some reasons for cancellation aren't covered, such as changing your mind about taking a trip or other things not named in your Certificate of Insurance/Policy.
If you cancel your trip for a covered reason, you must notify your travel supplier(s) within 72 hours of the cancellation. Not all plans include trip cancellation benefits. Please see the Certificate of Insurance/Policy for terms, conditions, and exclusions.

The time required to process a claim depends on the type of claim, the circumstances of the claim and the documentation required. We'll begin processing your claim once we receive your claim form and all the required supporting documentation. If we have to request more documents or more information, then the claim processing time will be extended.
For the fastest service, please submit your claim and all documentation on our website or in the Allyz® TravelSmart app. Claims submitted by email, mail or fax may take longer to process.
The timeline for receiving payment for a claim depends on two things: the time required to process your claim (see above) and the payment method you choose. We recommend choosing debit disbursement (sending money to your debit card electronically) or direct deposit (sending money to your bank account electronically) as your payment option, if your claim is eligible.
If your claim is eligible for payment, debit disbursements may be received immediately, the next day, or within two to five business days, depending on your bank's processing times. Direct deposit takes two to five business days, based upon bank processing times.
We can also mail you a check if you'd prefer, but please note that it can take 10 to 14 days to receive it.
On the Required Documents page, select your claim type to see a list of the documentation that may be required to support your claim. For the fastest service, please gather these documents before you start your claim.

Whether you file a claim online or offline, you will have the option to select direct deposit/ACH or debit disbursement to receive your claim payment. On the phone, ask Customer Service to select debit or direct deposit for your reimbursement.
Depending on the nature of your claim, you'll see the payment originating from AGA Service Company or Jefferson Insurance Company.
Payments can only be made in US dollars. There is a $10,000 maximum limit for debit disbursements ($50,000 per month). If you select electronic payment and your refund is over the maximum limit, then we will mail you a check. Please allow 10-14 days for it to arrive.
We cannot make claim payments to a credit card or a prepaid card at this time. Additionally, we unfortunately cannot send claim payments to a business account or split claim payments among multiple bank accounts. The total claim payment will need to go to one personal account.
Email addresses are required for all electronic payments in order to electronically send your explanation of benefits. If you don’t have an email address, or choose not to provide it, we’ll mail you a check.
Even if you've selected electronic reimbursement, we may instead mail a check if:
Please call customer service at 1-866-884-3556. If your claim payment has not already been processed, we will happily update it for you.
To help us process your claim as quickly and efficiently as possible, please gather all the requested documentation and information before you begin filing your claim. You’ll need to describe what happened, provide exact dollar amounts for each of your losses, and include documentation, such as receipts or doctor’s notes, to support your claim.
Supporting documentation helps us to verify your claim, and it is required in order for us to assign your claim to an examiner. The documentation required depends on your claim type and reason. It may include photos, receipts, communications, and invoices from your travel suppliers, medical records, police reports, etc. To see examples of what might be required for your claim, please see the Required Documentation page.

We define a pre-existing medical condition as an injury, illness, or medical condition that, within the 120 days prior to and including your plan purchase date:
The illness, injury, or medical condition does not need to be formally diagnosed in order to be considered a pre-existing medical condition.
Yes. If your plan includes the Pre-Existing Medical Condition Exclusion Waiver, you may be covered for losses due to a pre-existing medical condition if you meet all the following requirements:
If you incur additional non-refundable trip expenses after you purchase your plan, you must insure them with us within 14 days of their purchase. If you do not, those expenses will still be subject to the pre-existing medical condition exclusion. Coverage limits may vary based upon your chosen plan. Please see your Certificate of Insurance/Policy for terms, conditions, and exclusions.
Even if you don't purchase protection that covers existing medical conditions, or if you don't meet the requirements for that coverage, you can still purchase travel protection; just be aware that any loss due to an existing medical condition will be excluded.
Some travel protection plans include supplier financial default as a covered reason for trip cancellation and trip interruption. This means a covered supplier — such as a tour operator, airline, or cruise line — ceases all operations due to its financial condition, with or without filing for bankruptcy. Coverage applies to non-refundable payments and deposits you made before your trip was canceled, less any published refunds you're entitled to receive.
Please review your plan's terms, conditions and exclusions to see if the financial default of a travel supplier is listed as a covered reason for trip cancellation and trip interruption. To be eligible, the following conditions must apply:
a. Your plan was purchased within 14 days of the date of the first trip payment or deposit;
b. The cessation of operations occurs more than seven days after your plan’s Coverage Effective Date;
c. Your plan was not purchased directly through the tour operator, airline, or cruise line ceasing operations, or an affiliate of that entity; and
d. The tour operator, airline, or cruise line was included in our list of covered suppliers on your plan’s Coverage Effective Date. A list of these covered suppliers can be found by clicking here.
