Travel Insurance Information
Tour members...
Whenever a person travels on an international trip especially, now in the time of the Covid virus, there are possibilities for unforeseen situations to occur. We at Volleyball Tours take every precaution to plan and prevent these problems. However unforeseen issues could happen. The most common need for the travel insurance is due to an injury or illness to the traveler. Each year… we have 2-3 players / parents who become ill or injured just prior to our departure. Their doctor will not let them travel or play. With travel insurance; the traveler can be reimbursed for their loss, without travel insurance… they are not covered.
Volleyball Tours require that all travelers have a cancel for any reason travel insurance policy in place for refunds.

Why Travel Insurance....?
International travel can mean encountering the unexpected, ranging from the inconvenient to truly serious. Travel protection plans offer comprehensive benefits to meet the challenges of travel and help you enjoy a worry-free trip.
Not sure you need travel protection? We have compiled the Top 10 to highlight the importance of purchasing a plan before you depart on your trip:
1. "I’ve become ill and don’t feel well enough to travel"
When you purchase a plan that offers trip cancellation/ interruption coverage within a specified period of your initial trip deposit, you are eligible for waiver of pre-existing medical conditions. That means you can cancel your trip for an unforeseen sickness - and be reimbursed for any non-refundable expenses relating to your trip.
2. "We missed our connection because of a flight delay"
You arrive in your connecting city but your flight is long gone and the next flight is not until tomorrow morning. The travel delay offers coverage for accommodations and meals.
3. "I arrived but my luggage didn’t"
Whether your bag is lost or merely delayed, you can be reimbursed for the purchase of clothing and personal articles so you can enjoy your vacation.
4. "We were on our way home when the airline went on strike"
The trip delay benefit covers.
5. "My wallet – with my cards and passport – has been stolen"
Emergency assistance services will assist you in reporting your lost documents and make arrangements for an emergency cash transfer should that be required. As well, the baggage benefit provides coverage for loss due to the unauthorized use of your card.
6. "My father-in-law fell and injured himself – I normally care for him"
The illness or injury of family members is also included under covered reasons to cancel. It’s important to remember that even if you are fit to travel, other events may make departing on your trip unthinkable.
7. "I think my daughter has an ear infection – what’s "ear infection" in Italian?"
Plans offer 24-hour worldwide assistance. Call toll-free to access our 24 hour medical assistance helpline to receive advice or get information on English-speaking doctors in your area.
8. "We were traveling when I suddenly developed chest pains"
When a medical emergency happens far away from home and from proper medical facilities, you want to ensure you receive adequate care. Our medical evacuation benefit will cover emergency transportation for you to the nearest facility or back home.
9. "A terrorist act has occurred in a city through which my flight will be connecting"
Both domestic and international terrorist acts are covered reasons to cancel your trip provided the act occurs in the insured’s city of destination and you must be scheduled to arrive in that city within 30 days following the terrorist incident.
10. "My travel supplier just declared bankruptcy"
Common carriers with financial difficulties are becoming increasingly common. Purchasing trip cancellation/ interruption coverage from a third party can protect you and your trip investment against such an occurrence.
