New Jersey Residents Urged to Consider Travel Insurance

(StatePoint) Department of Banking and Insurance Commissioner Ken Kobylowski reminded consumers preparing for summer vacation to consider whether they need travel insurance – which can cover such things as loss of non-refundable costs in the event of a cancellation or medical costs incurred while on vacation. “Consumers preparing for a summer holiday don’t always consider insurance coverage issues that might be connected to the trip,” said Commissioner Kobylowski. “Unfortunately, travelers sometimes have to cancel trips; vacationers sometimes become ill; baggage can be lost or damaged, rental cars can be damaged. Travel insurance can help protect consumers when these types of things happen.” The main types of travel insurance and travel related insurance coverage issues consumers should be aware of are trip cancellation insurance, medical emergency coverage and coverage for damage to baggage and rental cars. For consumers who decide to purchase travel insurance or other travel related coverage, Commissioner Kobylowski offered the following shopping tips: check existing coverage, understand the coverage purchased, read your policy carefully, review the full range of benefits, shop around for coverage and beware of fraud.
