A travel insurance plan can provide coverage to protect your trip. And a group travel insurance plan is an easy way to procure and manage coverage for all of the travelers in one place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For senior tours, group travel insurance plans also are typically more affordable as the cost of a group plan for each individual is not based on age. When considering a plan, a group leader can offer each individual the same plan coverage terms and can manage the sign-ups and any changes on behalf of each individual.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In most cases, group travel insurance policies provide:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trip cancellation protection for unexpected illness, severe weather or acts of terrorism.<\/li>\n<li>24-hour medical coverage while on a trip, including medical evacuation and emergency medical coverage.<\/li>\n<li>Protection of personal property in the case of loss or theft of luggage and other personal items.<\/li>\n<li>Protection against cancellation fees, travel delays, or other circumstances that cause financial losses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Group travel insurance can also be useful in a number of scenarios, including:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Volunteer Groups <\/strong>\u2013 Church, school or community organizations headed out to lend a helping hand to those in need.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Organized Tours <\/strong>\u2013 These tours are great for those who don\u2019t have time to plan every detail of a trip, but don\u2019t forget to make plans to protect your travel investment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corporate Travel <\/strong>\u2013 Any work-related travel in which a number of employees are required \u2013 an offsite, larger conference or company-wide meeting \u2013 can also benefit from a group travel insurance policy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Family Gatherings <\/strong>\u2013 For a wedding, a funeral or a reunion, families often travel together.<\/li>\n<li><strong>School Trips <\/strong>\u2013 Did your little league team make the world series?
