‘Tis the season for winter travel especially for anyone who wants to escape the cold and head to a warmer, sunnier climate.
But one thing that many of us forget about before we take off is travel insurance.
Lauren Reimer with Expedia.ca says make sure you purchase travel insurance and have it handy in case you need it.
“If something happens to you or your kids, this is the first number you’re going to want to refer to. So this is always something I pack in my wallet and I make sure I locate it before I leave,” she notes.
Although many employers provide travel insurance to their employees, Reimer adds most do not include travel cancellation which is important to have in case any emergencies arise.
