Travel Insurance Reviews for WorldTrips Atlas Journey Premier

The biggest drawback to this plan is that practically speaking it is worthless when facing terrorism or threats from conflicts. There is no cancellation coverage until the State Department applies a “Level 4 Do Not Travel” rating, which they are not likely to do in many cases for diplomatic reasons, or until there is a terrorism incident within 30 days of your travel to a city on your itinerary. For example, even now, Israel is not rated at level 4, even with an ongoing conflict. So, you have to depend on your travel company to cancel the trip voluntarily and give you a refund. Also, bear in mind that many incidents that are terroristic are not labeled as such by our government for various reasons. They do not rate countries or classify behaviors with the safety of citizens as their first priority. Rather, they make ratings and designations for political or diplomatic reasons. This means that criteria such as these are not useful for determining if it is safe or psychologically comfortable to travel. In short, be aware you are unlikely to be able to alter you travel plans for these reasons, even when conditions are risky.
