 Travel Insurance…a small fee most worthwhile

Posted by Zuriana on January 28, 2012

 
Sandals La Toc in St. Lucia

Travel insurance for honeymoons, vacations, and for guests attending a destination wedding is money well spent. I recommend it especially if you are traveling out of the country.

A travel protection plan provides you with a full refund in the event you need to cancel a trip for any reason right up to the originally scheduled flight departure time. Your entire trip is covered, including airfare regardless of ticketing penalties or airline regulations, if canceled prior to departure. You money will be refunded minus the cost of the travel insurance plan.

A Travel Protection Plan covers you for the unexpected like:

• Trip Interruption: Reimburses the unused, non-refundable portion of your land/sea arrangement plus the cost of additional airfare or change fees to original airfare to return home or catch up to your trip should you need to interrupt your trip due to an illness injury or death to yourself, a traveling companion or covered family member.
• Medical Expenses: Up to $5,000: Reimburses you for doctor and hospital charges should you become ill or injured during your trip.
• Baggage/Personal Effects: Up to $800: Reimburses you should your baggage or personal effects become lost, stolen or damaged while traveling.
• Bag Delay: Up to $100: Reimburses you for the purchase of necessary personal items should your bags be delayed by the airline for more than 24 hours during your trip.

Travel insurance typically runs $49 to about $178 per person and should be purchased at the time you place a deposit on your vacation or within 7 days of your deposit.

I have had to use my travel insurance a couple times for the unexpected. Travel insurance was especially valuable for vacationers in August 2011 when Hurricane Irene was headed for the East Coast. I was touring the three Sandals Resorts in St. Lucia and I chatted with a number of couples who were not able to fly home to the New York and New Jersey areas due to Hurricane Irene.  They spent a day or more extra in St. Lucia at an unexpected cost.

 Unique Gift Registries

Posted by Zuriana on January 2, 2012

I am a big fan of doing things a bit differently and being unique.  For your wedding set up some unique gift registries for your guests.

Honeymoon Registry
Through a honeymoon gift registry, your guests can give you portions of your honeymoon or destination wedding as a wedding gift. Some things guests can give include a “romantic honeymoon dinner”, an excursion, or help with an “upgrade to a honeymoon suite” as a wedding gift. You will also receive a free wedding website, a guest message board, bridal shower games and more. One of my honeymoon couples’ guests loved the honeymoon registry and were very generous.

Charitable “I Do” Gift Registry
When you register with partner stores you can raise charitable contributions. Up to 10% of your guests’ gift purchases will be donated to the charity of your choice.  You can also make a charitable donation in lieu of wedding favors.

Gift Card Registry
A Gift Card Registry allows you to share with family and friends a complete list of your most desired gift cards from your preferred retailers. You’ll find a wide selection of gift cards from popular retailers like Williams Sonoma, Macy’s and Best Buy.
