Does the Hurricane & Weather benefit cover tropical storms?

Yes, losses related to tropical storms can be covered by the Hurricane & Weather benefit.

The Hurricane & Weather benefit is included in most travel insurance policies under Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption. This benefit can reimburse your prepaid and non-refundable trip expenses if you purchased your policy before the storm was named and you meet one of the policy’s specific covered reasons.

Typically, covered reasons include the following:

• Your flight or cruise is delayed due to inclement weather
• Your hotel or other accommodations are rendered uninhabitable by the storm
• Your own home is rendered uninhabitable by the storm
• A hurricane warning for your destination within 24-48 hours of your departure
• A mandatory evacuation at your destination
