Over the past several months, thousands of travellers have faced baggage delays and losses all over the world. I myself experienced the frustration of landing in Rome without our checked luggage—which didn’t arrive until 2 days later. When you don’t have your personal belongings with you, it’s not a relaxing start to what’s meant to be a relaxing vacation!

Whether you’re heading out on a spring break road trip or planning a summer getaway to take advantage of economical domestic flight options, travelling within our own nation is a wonderful and rewarding experience. But many Canadians aren’t aware that having travel insurance coverage to do so is still very important.

We all know by now that travelling without travel insurance is never a good idea. However, if an incident causes you to use your insurance, it may sometimes feel daunting and confusing how to start the process.
