InsureMyTrip.com Advises Travelers to Plan Ahead This Hurricane Season
Warwick, RI June 1, 2005 -Today marks the official beginning of the 2005 Hurricane Season and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has predicted another very active season. NOAA predicts there will be an estimated 12 to 15 named storms this season, with 7 to 9 of these becoming hurricanes; 3 to 5 of these could be major hurricanes. InsureMyTrip.com, the leading online provider of travel insurance, advises travelers to plan ahead with the purchase of travel insurance to protect their vacation investments against these unforeseen events.
"From total cessation of travel due to a hurricane, travel delay due to airport closures, and to your actual destination being made uninhabitable due to a storm, the perils and consequences are all very real for travelers," commented Jim Grace, President of InsureMyTrip.com. "It is extremely important to plan ahead as trip cancellation protection is based on unforeseen events. Once a tropical storm or hurricane is identified in your destination area, you will not be able to purchase coverage for trip cancellation and travel delay that may result from that particular storm," said Grace.
"Another very important reason to plan ahead is to maximize the complete complement of benefits offered by trip cancellation policies," said Grace. "These policies provide a grace period from 7 to 21 days of your initial trip deposit date. When purchased within this time frame, policies include financial default protection and pre-existing medical conditions. Bottom-line, buy early to get the best of all benefits," exclaimed Grace.
