Can I Change My Travel Dates Later?

by Steve Dasseos on February 10, 2010

Steve, I’m planning another trip in August 2010 but I’m not sure as to the departure and return dates. Since my initial deposit will be in the next few days, I want to have the waiver of the pre-existing condition exclusion and Cancel for Any Reason coverages by buying now. May I use estimated dates and amend the policy later without losing these options? Tom

Hi Tom,

This is a great question that comes up often, so I’m happy to answer it here for you.

Yes, you can easily change the travel dates later if needed without losing the Pre-existing Conditions or Cancel for Any Reason coverage. It’s the same cost for up to 30 days trip length.

In addition, though you’re not asking this, if your trip cost exceeds what you insure, you just need to increase your policy’s coverage within 10 days of incurring those higher prepaid non-refundable trip costs to keep the Pre-existing Conditions and Cancel for Any Reason coverage.

I hope this makes sense. If you want the right travel insurance advice, call us at 1-888-407-3854 and we'll help you figure it all out.
