Travel Insurance
You've been looking forward to your vacation for a long time and now
you're ready to make plans. We strongly suggest the purchase of travel
insurance to protect yourselves and your vacation investment.
Access America Vacation Rental Protector provides protection against the
loss of your vacation rental deposit or payments if unforeseen circumstances
cause you to cancel or postpone your trip.
Why Vacation Rental Protector?
Think about the possibility of not being able to go on vacation, or having
to cut your trip short for some reason. It's not a pleasant thought but
neither is putting a significant amount of money in jeopardy. Access
America's Vacation Rental Protector with Sporting Benefits has been
specifically designed to protect most travel-related losses, stepping in
where other insurance benefits leave off.
When you purchase Vacation Rental Protector, your rental deposit and
nonrefundable fees are protected if your trip is cancelled, interrupted or
postponed for a covered reason.* You and your traveling companions will also
be covered for travel delays, baggage delays, and baggage theft and damage.*
Here are a few examples **:
- Your spouse becomes ill a few days before departure and you must
cancel the trip.
- You've prepaid lift tickets, rental equipment and ski/snowboard
lessons and must return early from your vacation.
- A member of your family back home passes away while you are away
forcing you to cut your trip short.
- You lose your job shortly before departure and must cancel your trip.
- You arrive by air but your bags do not.
