Can anyone share the name of their travel insurance company or a great travel insurance broker? Thank You!

Rbc or your credit card if you booking with it will often have insurance, or your employer

Thank you Debbie! I did look into our RBC westjet MC. A lot of the insurance (health) is covered for free, but only for 14 days....which was good to know! We'd like to travel longer than that so it would require a top up,along with the trip cancellation/interruption.

Nicole rbc will top it up. And no I dont work for them! Lol

I book with CIBC. In August I was in a jet ski accident and my leg was broken. They were phenomenal to deal with. Sent me the forms while I was talking to her and reimbursement was quick. Best part was I could choose my own hospital. Many tell you where to go. They even covered the damage to the jet ski. I won’t buy from anyone else.

Where were you please Terra?

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

I used AMA.

Dealing with this right now! I have emergency travel with my employee benefits , Alberta Blue Cross, but remembered I thought I also had it with RBC Visa. Didn't think about any of it, until I took myself and kids to Mexico, and we were delayed coming home because of a medical emergency with my son. ABC covered everything except my daughter's flight home. When I called Visa, they said I also had Travel Interruption insurance, and they'll be covering my daughter's flight (and would have covered all the medical if I didn't already submit with ABC). Definitely recommend checking with your credit card company, they were excellent to deal with, very helpful, empathetic and trying to get me covered for any expenses they could.

Look at Costco insurance. Their travel insurance is thru Manulife.

Blue cross!

Johnson travel insurance!

Nicole....I have used Nicole for two years..she can also give you insight on what her knowledge is of those companies who are slow to reimburse, etc....AND, she's very pleasant and effective...

Thanks Kevin

I am a broker and would be happy to help. PM me if you would like.

Primelink insurance we used for years. Never had any troubles with claims.
Recently switched to world nomad for longer trips but haven't dealt with claims yet.

RBC travel insurance

world nomads hands down

Manu life is good with their prices. I can help if you want

If you call your local atb financial they have great plans.

Allianz - compare all rates and give best value.

Costco does Manulife.

I use credit cards to book flights and get the free travel insurance that comes with it...

Yes the best I know is Shelagh from [email protected]. Her phone number is 250 581 0058. She will research what is best for you, whether it be adding onto your work plan, your house insurance plan, a new carrier, and will get you the best coverage even if you have a preexisting condition. Quotes are free

I second this!

We really like world nomads

My hubby sells it thru SunLife (the co we work for) & it’s with ToGo. Pm me if your interested & I can give you his work # (it can all be done over the phone)

I have dealt with Cindy Golany at Broker Link. She was awesome. 403-251-1700. Cindy handles all our insurance needs as well as arranged for medical travel insurance when my daughter was in Australia for a second year.

If you have a credit card check with the. I know royal backs visa and westjet master card you get Two weeks free and it’s cheaper to add weeks on

only till age 65!

Kathy depends on cc. I have the Scotia Visa Infinite. Covers me for 10 days after age 65

Carol mine is the RBC westjet and it only covers for 3 days after 65 ... before 65 it was 2 weeks

Kathy yup, I have that one as well. The Scotia one also gives more perks. I get 6 free visits to vip lounges in a year

Carol interesting ... guess I need to do some investigating .... just turned 65 and finding out all about getting older .... does it have an annual fee? Thank you for the info

Kathy yes, $139 with 1 extra card no charge
