Travel Insurance

We highly recommend the purchase of travel insurance at time of booking to cover against any unexpected events, namely trip cancellation, loss of, or damage to baggage, and insurance to cover medical costs abroad. By declining insurance, you acknowledge you understand the risk of being exposed to financial losses ranging from the price of your trip (if cancelling) to any additional unknown costs with Trip Cancellation, Travel Delay and out of province medical care.


COVID-19 UPDATE

Due to the impacts associated with the spread of COVID-19, the general conditions of your booking may change and be different from what was originally discussed or what is currently printed in your travel brochure. We encourage you to consult your travel professional or refer to the suppliers’ websites for the most up-to-date information and conditions.

Full information regarding travelling conditions and requirements in respect to airports, airline travel and upon arrival in destination can be found here;

Should your trip be cancelled by the supplier due to COVID-19, the value of your trip may be protected by a Future Travel Credit rather than a refund. Some suppliers may also allow you to cancel your travel arrangements, depending on your departure date, and will provide you with a Future Travel Credit. Your credit will be valid for at least 2 years from the date of cancellation. There may also be additional Elgin Travel service fees associated with re-booking or cancellation of travel arrangements due to COVID-19.

Travel insurance for trip cancellation and interruption and emergency out-of-province medical insurance is highly recommended. Please note that most travel insurance may limit coverage for claims caused by COVID-19 as it is now a known event. As well, travel insurance does not cover cancellation claims where a future travel credit has been issued as this is not considered a financial loss.
