The best way to beat the winter blues and enjoy family time is with a trip somewhere hot. With March and spring breaks fast approaching, many Canadians will soon be flying south for a well-deserved getaway. But before you relax on the beach, it’s important to have the right coverage so you can truly unwind and enjoy your vacation worry-free.

Travelling abroad is exciting – it’s an opportunity to try new things and make valuable, life-long family memories. However, whether you’re abroad or at home, the unpredictable can happen and take you by surprise.

Any of these have the potential to add unforeseen costs to your trip:

  • Food poisoning
  • A fall on the slopes
  • Boating or swimming accidents
  • Broken bones or sprains
  • A car accident

 

Unlike when you’re at home in Canada, medical costs can be very expensive in other countries. MSI might not cover expenses you or your family members incur, especially if you have to be urgently flown back to Canada. Luckily, you can avoid unexpected expenses and protect you and your loved ones with travel insurance.

You’re spending a lot of money on your vacation, so you should enjoy it to the fullest. Plan ahead to make sure you leave your vacation with nothing but happy memories. Talk to a MacLeod Lorway broker today about travel insurance coverage tailored to your unique needs.
