 Many travelers feel that a vacation is a significant
financial investment, and it is vital to protect your trip and yourself.
There are certain circumstances that could arise at the last moment
causing you not to travel. There may also be situations arising at your
destination that can be inconvenient and costly. USA Student Travel
INCLUDES the basic Benefit Plan* for every passenger. We also recommend
that you purchase the additional Optional Benefits* to give you that extra
comfort level.
*Please review the Evidence
of Benefits for the
complete terms. Conditions, limits and exclusions of your
plan.
As a courtesy, the
optional USA Student Travel Protection Plan is automatically added to your
account. The cost of the plan is calculated based upon the total cost of
your trip and is separately identified on your invoice. USA Student Travel
highly recommends the purchase of "Optional Travel Insurance" to protect
your investment in your graduation trip. This plan, administered by Travel
Insured International, will reimburse you if you have to cancel your
reservation due to a medical situation. The added benefits also cover trip
interruption or delays, and lost or delayed luggage. Should you wish to
decline the coverage and take full financial responsibility, simply
indicate so in writing to our office prior to March 1 of the year you are
traveling. Coverage does not start until date of
purchase.
If you have questions about the benefits of The USA Student Travel
Protection Plan, please call our plan administrator, Travel Insured
International, at 1-800-243-3174. Be sure to identify yourself as a USA
Student Travel passenger.
 Because unforeseen
circumstances occur, it is wise to protect your money in case of a need to
cancel your trip arising from an emergency such as illness or death in the
immediate family. The majority of travelers invest in the small premium to
have the comfort and security of insurance protection. (USA Student Travel
or USA Educational Adventures) will include the cost ($29-$99 depending on
the price of your tour program) of the optional cancellation insurance
(offered by Travel Insured International) on your invoice as a courtesy to
you. If you do not want the insurance coverage, you may note that on the
return portion of the invoice by checking the denial box and the premium
will be removed from your invoice. You must do this prior to final payment
date. If the participant chooses to deny coverage, he/she will assume full
financial responsibility for the cost of the travel package price and will
hold USA harmless for any losses due to cancellation, lost or stolen
baggage, delays or any other unforeseen circumstances. If you do not deny
the insurance, the coverage will be activated after your next payment over
$150.00. An insurance brochure outlining all the coverage and limitations
will be
sent.
