Sparks Travel Insurance Inquiries
Travelers should first check corporate policies
 Most
corporations offer some level travel insurance for travelers - either
as part of corporate coverage or because coverage comes with corporate
credit cards, used as form of travel payment. Travel insurance can include
many products.
- Travel
delay
- Accidental
death
- Lost
luggage
- Baggage
delay
- Trip
interruption or cancellation
- Rental
car collision
- Medical
- Dental
- Emergency
evacuation
Some insurers
also offer flight insurance (a form of accidental death coverage while
flying only) and emergency evacuation insurance. Some companies allow
you to select individual coverage. Package policies may be available with
coverage for children at no extra charge.
These policies
are designed for travelers going on a single trip. They can be used for
cruises, tours, flights, house rentals, and many other kinds of travel.
