American Express Travel Insurance
Although American Express is a well-known brand in the credit card industry, you are not required to have an American Express credit card to buy travel insurance from the firm. American Express Travel Insurance offers customizable coverage as well as the Basic, Silver, Gold, and Platinum package options.
The Basic, Silver, or build-your-own plans are this company's most affordable choices. The Basic plan offers up to $1,000 in travel cancellation or interruption coverage, $5,000 in medical emergency coverage, up to $750 in dental emergency coverage, and $250 in lost baggage coverage. Unfortunately, this ordinary plan does not pay out for lodging, food, or missed connections due to travel delays. It also does not cover travel accidents that result in death or dismemberment.
The Silver plan offers coverage for up to 100% of the cost of the trip in the event of cancellation or interruption, as well as up to $25,000 for medical emergencies, up to $100,000 for emergency evacuation and repatriation, up to $50,000 to $100,000 for protection against travel accidents (depending on the type of accident), $500 for lost luggage, and up to $150 per day for costs associated with a delayed trip.
You can choose the types of coverage you want with the "build-your-own" package. Choices include emergency medical and dental coverage, emergency evacuation, trip cancellation, delay, and interruption, and luggage protection.
- Average cost of travel insurance across sample trips: $329
