How much does travel insurance cost?

Travel insurance typically costs 4-10% of your total trip cost. For a $3,000 trip, this is $120-300. The cost depends on your age, destination, trip length, and coverage amount.

What affects the cost?

Your age, trip cost, destination, trip length, and the level of coverage affect the premium. Medical coverage and evacuation coverage add to the cost. Cancel-for-any-reason coverage costs more.

How can I save money?

Compare quotes from multiple providers and choose only the coverage you need. Buy insurance early to maximize benefits. Consider an annual policy if you travel frequently. Skip unnecessary add-ons.
