Mexico Travel Insurance Basics

Traveling to Mexico can present rewarding and memorable experiences. However, regardless of your exact destination or how seasoned you are as a traveler, accidents and other mishaps can occur. With this in mind, you and other members of your party should take time to assess risks and exposures and secure appropriate loss control measures, such as travel insurance.

What Is Travel Insurance? 

As its name suggests, travel insurance is a type of policy that can address many risks and possible incidents that may occur during a person’s trip to Mexico. Whether traveling south of the border for business purposes, relaxation or adventure, these trips often represent significant financial investments and must be covered accordingly.

What Does Travel Insurance Cover?

Like many types of policies, travel insurance can be customized to suit your unique circumstances, including the details of your trip and subsequent coverage needs. You may also be able to personalize your insurance based on your budget and risk tolerance. In many cases, adequate travel insurance may include coverage for the following:

• Cancellations—If you have booked specific experiences during your travels that are unavailable, this part of travel insurance may help you recoup losses related to nonrefundable deposits and fees.

• Delays—Should your travel plans be delayed, you may incur additional costs, such as staying at a hotel near the airport or paying for restaurant meals. Travel insurance may help cover these costs.

• Luggage—This part of travel insurance may provide compensation if your luggage is lost, damaged or stolen during your trip.
