And if you don't buy the right kind of travel insurance more than your trip could be ruined.

Bet your wondering what can travel insurance help you with? It can help you with all sorts of things like cancelled flights, lost baggage and your medication is in it and you need to have an emergency prescription filled, your passport and wallet are stolen, and you need emergency cash and a replacement passport, medical evacuation (You are involved in an accident and adequate medical treatment is not available), trip cancellations due to illness or a terror incident that occurs in the city you're planning to visit, your cruise line, airline or tour operator goes bankrupt. You need your non-refundable expenses covered and to get to your destination, medical emergencies in foreign countries or a hurricane evacuation at your resort, hotel or cruise.
