Thank you, Debbie<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hi Debbie, <\/p>\n<p>If you need to interrupt your trip after it&#8217;s started, you make all the arrangements on your own &#038; get reimbursed from the insurance company as part of the claims process after you are home.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you get hit by a cement truck on your trip. Get to a medical facility so there&#8217;s proof of the incident (and that you are taken care of). It&#8217;s likely that after you get out of the hospital you&#8217;ll be coming home early, too.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a change of travel plans after your trip has started, like a bad weather delay causing you to return home a day later, or, if you&#8217;re still in the hospital from the cement truck accident, you are still covered by your travel insurance policy until you get home.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you decide to stay longer or come home early without a covered reason, your travel insurance policy will expire on your original return date.<\/p>\n<p>Along these lines, if your travel dates change before you leave on your trip, call us at 1-888-407-3854. This happens often due to airline schedule changes. It&#8217;s immportant for your travel dates to match you policy coverage dates. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe here If I needed to interrupt my trip due to a covered reason or change my travel plans after my trip has started because of covered reasons, do I make these revised travel arrangements myself and then work out the details and expense with the insurance company afterwards, or do they get involved in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ask-steve-dasseos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3471"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3471\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tripinsurancestore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
