Traveling to the US..

[Froggirl]

I am going to Bellingham, Washington for a shopping trip and would like to get travel insurance but was wondering what is the best place to get it? I don't have BCAA but I have checked out the travel insurance there but wanted to see if there are any others that you have used. I did a google search but there are way to many.
Also is there any websites that I should visit to get deals? I have gone to the seattle premium outlets site and printed out coupons and the VIP coupon book.
Thanks

you need to try tripple a.. its more like this though aaa insurance its wonderful state site indurance and it should have an option for traverls insurance .. i just moved from the states what our your concerns really .. our you flying or driving ??

[2jacobusgirls]

also do you have an american express card.. though or any major credit card should let you claim anything you put on your card if there our issues.. that or they may even cover a traverls insurance if you call them

I think you can get travel insurance through BCAA without being a member......you can also get it through your bank.

Yes, BCAA is available for those who do not have memberships, as well as any bank or credit union in BC too..

You can get travel insurance from Blue Cross.It's reasonably priced and from my experience with them they do pay U.S. medical bills no problem.

i've used bcaa before... it's been super easy and fast!!

I have used CAA travel insurance and have actually had to use too! It cost $15 for the four of us for 8days --now this was 9yrs ago! And my son's hospital bill was $15,000!!!! And they paid it all--I never paid a cent

You can go to any travel agency and they can issue travel insurance for you.
Usually they offer RBC Travel Insurance - I use that all the time. Min is 4 days.
The best deal is the annual policy if you are frequently travelling to US

I am in the states several times a year since that is where my family and I are from. We have always just used the insurance provided by our bank. We bank with TD and they offer travellers insurance and it is not very expensive.

Thanks everyone for the replys. I think I am going to go with BCAA as I can get it online and I need it soon. Thanks agian.

You can visit Destination guide of ganeandmarshall.com for this purpose,..... it also includes do's and dont's of the destinations.... i hope this will work...

I get it from the Cooperators website. Just tell them how long you'll be gone and they charge you accordingly. I only paid like $16 for 2 weeks, I think.

It's the same kind of insurance that Manulife gives...up to $1million I think. But doesn't have the $50 price tag that Manulife does

Another thing to look into is if you have medical benefits these may cover you. Our plan at my work covers us well travelling in select areas, US being one of them.
