You must meet ALL of the following criteria to qualify for the Vacation Protection Plan:
• The booking origin, or travel agency, is based in either the United States or Canada
• Must pay for the reservation in US dollars
• Must have a United States address

The good news is that if you no longer qualify BUT you already booked a Vacation Protection Plan, it will still be honored on your existing reservation. If you choose to cancel your Vacation Protection Plan and live outside the United States, your Protection Plan cannot be re-added once removed.

The Vacation Protection Plan covers you under certain unexpected circumstances and emergencies both before and during your vacation. It is an optional add-on service that includes travel insurance benefits underwritten by Arch Insurance Company and a 24-hour helpline provided by CareFree Travel Assistance. Credits are valid for one year from the issue date and are not transferrable.
