Travel is a time for exciting adventures, rest and relaxation, and exploring the world. On the flipside, it is not a time for stressing about unexpected medical bills. That’s where travel insurance comes in!

As Canadian travel habits shift in 2025, fewer Canadians are venturing south of the border. With a weak loonie, high inflation, and unstable US-Canadian relations, many travellers are shifting their focus to explore Canada or the rest of the world instead. But whether your plans take you across the country or abroad, one thing is certain: protecting your travel investment is crucial.

It can be a daunting task to go through travel insurance claims, especially if you’re just recovering from a medical emergency. Luckily, TuGo offers convenient claims submissions online through myTuGo, so you can easily upload documents and keep track of your claim status instead of having to call customer service or mail documents in. 

When we think of travel insurance, most of us picture a safety net for medical emergencies. But did you know that the same travel insurance can also cover the return of your pet or vehicle if need to be airlifted back to your home province? Return of vehicle and pet while travelling are lesser-known, but handy benefits that TuGo’s Emergency Medical Plan covers.
