Protecting your honeymoon
Most happy couples planning a honeymoon seem willing to invest significantly in the trip. Couples should, however, be prepared for unforeseen circumstances that could hamper carefully made plans. Honeymoons are not only financial investments - they are emotional investments. Travel insurance can cost about 5 percent to 7 percent of the total cost of a trip, and for a comparatively small amount, provide priceless peace of mind.
Travel agents can be a great, independent source of information and can recommend insurance that best suits each traveler's needs. When purchasing insurance, ask about coverage that provides protection for:
- Airline, tour, cruise or other supplier bankruptcy.
- Trip cancellation and interruption for other reasons.
- Accidents before or during your honeymoon that might prevent traveling.
- Missed connections, travel or baggage delays.
- Concierge and emergency assistance.
For more information on travel insurance, talk to your travel agent.
