TRAVEL INSURANCE

CANADA trips.  NTSC and Tour Operators strongly recommended  to purchase travel medical and trip interruption insurance, either through our Tour Operators or another third party provider. You can purchase a travel insurance policy covering cancellation due to medical conditions, trip interruption due to flight cancellations or delays (e.g. overnight hotel cost if a connection is missed) and covering medical and trip-related expenses while you are away. You can also add on to this policy, "Cancel For Any Reason" insurance (CFAR) which allows you to cancel at any time, or for any reason. Trip participants who do not purchase travel insurance will be required to confirm they have other coverage or understand they are responsible to any costs associated with trip cancellation/interruption.

NEW THIS SEASON. USA and Europe trips. Participants are required to provide proof of travel medical insurance coverage. In the past, participants who did not have out-of-country medical insurance have placed an undue burden on Trip Leaders and Travel Committee Reps. Injuries do occur and it is unsafe and can be very expensive to not have out-of-country medical coverage. Trip interruption insurance is also strongly recommended.

Comprehensive Insurance coverage can also be added to a newly purchased policy. The premium is due with the deposit.

Further details are available on the website Travel Insurance page.

If you choose not to purchase any travel insurance, the tour operator, airlines, resorts and/or NTSC have no obligation to provide refunds or cover extra costs you may incur.  Please protect yourself!
