H1N1 Influenza - Protect Your Travel Investment

- H1N1 INFLUENZA, JOB LOSS, HURRICANES -

PROTECT YOUR TRAVEL INVESTMENT

Travelers need to take the proper steps to cover vacation travel plans during uncertain economic challenges, the upcoming flu season, and our current hurricane season.

Emergencies can happen before or during your trip.Don't forget to pack your travel insurance!

What if you lose your job due to involuntary termination or layoff?
What if you become too sick to take your trip, or need medical assistance while on your trip?
What if there's an emergency back home and you have to cut your trip short?
What if your luggage doesn't show up when you do?
What if you lose your wallet or identification?

Severe weather anywhere in the world- from thunderstorms and downpours to full-blown hurricanes, can frequently impact vacations at this time of year. Weather-related flight delays can lead to missed air connections and cruise departures. The best way to cover your vacation investment against the impact of severe weather is through a travel insurance plan that includes comprehensive trip cancellation, interruption and travel delay coverage, as well as 24-hour assistance and emergency travel services including emergency cash transfers, replacement of lost travel documents, coverage for emergency medical needs, and email and phone messaging to family and friends.

We strongly recommend that you purchase travel insurance for your upcoming trip.
We can provide you a quote in just a matter of minutes.

Travel Safe….Be Prepared

Travel Leaders is encouraging its clients to take common-sense precautions to help prevent the spread of Swine Flu and other viruses.

- Check if your health insurance plan will cover you abroad. Consider purchasing additional insurance that covers medical evacuation in case you become sick.

- Be sure you are up-to-date with all your routine vaccinations, including seasonal influenza vaccine if available. Consider seeing a travel medicine specialist or a doctor familiar with travel medicine at least 4–6 weeks before your international departure.

- Pack a travel health kit that contains basic first aid and medical supplies.

- Identify health-care resources in the area(s) you will be visiting.

- Wash hands frequently, cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing, and contact local health officials if you – or someone you come in contact with – begin to exhibit flu-like symptoms.
