Travel Insurance - Make Sure You Can Be There

2010-03-16T17:09:00.000-07:00

We recommend travel insurance for all wedding guests. This is an important trip, and you want to make sure nothing stands in your way.

This is only a brief summary of the coverage offered. Please read the suggested documents for more information.

RBC Deluxe Travel Insurance covers your emergency medical needs; doctor visits, tests, hospitalization, etc. This plan also covers cancellation, interruption and trip delays, flight accident, travel accident, delayed baggage & personal effects and damaged baggage.

RBC Non Medical Travel Insurance covers cancellation, interruption and trip delays, flight accident, travel accident, delayed baggage & personal effects and damaged baggage. There is no medical coverage included.

Anyone over the age of 73 will be required to remit a medical questionnaire prior to booking to ensure the coverage will be permitted by RBC.

We will add everyone to the group travel insurance policy at the time of deposit. The premium will be paid with the final payment. As the provincial taxes vary, those amounts will be determined at payment time.

Travel Health Advice

2010-03-15T06:32:00.000-07:00

When booking clients to various sun destinations, I am often asked about whether vaccinations are required and other health risks. As everyone's health situation is individual, your family doctor or a travel health clinic are the best people to advise you on what is right for you. I suggest the JEMA International Travel Clinic in St John's at 709 738 5362. I do suggest all clients visit the government of Canada's informational web site for Travel Health Advice before traveling.
