Buy Trip Insurance Separately From Your Trip Provider
Check out this article I just read on Clark Howard's web page:
Buy Trip insurance separately from your trip provider
Trip insurance policies should always be purchased when you are taking a cruise, a tour or traveling on a trip that requires pre-payment of thousands of dollars.
Such policies are designed to protect consumers by giving them refunds in the event of illness to the traveler or an immediate family member. They also provide a refund in the case of company, tour operator or airline default.
Consumers should always purchase a policy independent of the cruise, tour or vacation planner. Never purchase the trip protection plan from the trip organizer. Those types of policies are designed to protect only the company and not the consumer!
At Insurance Services of America, we know that you should buy your travel insurance separately from your trip provider. Otherwise, if your trip provider goes belly up, your Trip insurance does too! The Round Trip plan from Insurance Services of America is specifically designed to protect your client's financial investment and cover them against default by the airline, cruise line, tour group etc. There is even an optional 'Cancel for Any Reason' benefit! In addition to protecting your client's vacation plans, there is coverage for lost baggage and personal effects, and emergency medical expenses including repatriation. 
So do what the experts suggest and give us a call. We'll get you set up to help your clients get comprehensive coverage and still leave them with plenty of spending money to bring you back a souvenir!
