Traveling domestically within the United States can be an exciting adventure, but unforeseen circumstances can quickly change all your travel plans. Travel insurance can help ease your mind and provide protection in the event of unexpected emergencies, such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, or lost or stolen luggage. With reasonable travel protection plans available from AXA, domestic travel is a smart choice for anyone looking for adventure. 

Is travel insurance necessary for domestic travel? 

Travel insurance for domestic trips is a wise decision, as it provides crucial coverage and protection against unforeseen events that could otherwise spoil your trip.  
 
Here are some common benefits of travel insurance for domestic travel: 

• Trip Cancellation and Interruption: If your trip is canceled or interrupted due to eligible unforeseen circumstances such as a natural disaster, illness, or death in the family, travel insurance can help provide reimbursement for non-refundable expenses such as flights, hotels and tours. 
• Medical Emergencies: If you get sick or injured during your domestic trip, travel insurance can help cover medical expenses such as hospitalization, emergency medical evacuation, and repatriation. 
• Travel Delays: If your flight is delayed or canceled, travel insurance can help reimburse for expenses such as meals, accommodations, and transportation until you are able to reach your destination. 
• Lost or Stolen Luggage: If your luggage is lost, stolen, or damaged during your domestic trip, travel insurance can help provide reimbursement for the value of your belongings. 

Vacation Stories: 

Sarah had always been an adventurer, and she was excited to explore the beautiful mountains of Denver, Colorado. She had carefully planned her trip, packed her gear, and set out on her hiking adventure. As she was hiking in a remote area of the mountains, Sarah suddenly slipped and fell, injuring her leg. She tried to continue hiking, but the pain became unbearable. Realizing she needed medical attention, Sarah called her provider and they immediately arranged for her to be airlifted to the nearest hospital. Luckily she had an AXA plan with benefits for the cost of her medical treatment and the emergency transportation, saving her from thousands of dollars in expenses. 

Is travel insurance expensive? 

A policy usually costs just 3-6% of your trip costs, and the total cost doesn’t go up much for each additional person. 1 Whatever amount of coverage you choose, the knowledge that you are covered in a variety of circumstances is priceless! 

Cancel for Any Reason Coverage 

If you are concerned about having a trip canceled or interrupted by circumstances outside of those generally covered, “Cancel for Any Reason” coverage may be right for you. Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) is an optional, add-on benefit that allows you to cancel your trip for any reason, with reimbursement. CFAR is there for when you need to cancel your trip more than 48 hours ahead of time: it can give up to 75% back of your prepaid trip arrangements.   
CFAR is available exclusively to AXA’s Platinum plan.
