Summer travelers are on the move and a lot of them have vacation rentals and travel insurance on their mind. According to the Summer Travel Guide* from the travel insurance comparison website InsureMyTrip, 18% of respondents plan to stay in a vacation rental this summer and “concerns over coverage for a vacation rental” ranked as a top issue mentioned by travelers speaking to InsureMyTrip agents.
These are some of the top concerns and travel insurance needs of travelers that researched or purchased travel insurance from InsureMyTrip, according to the Summer Travel Guide, and the ways CSA Travel Protection’s Guest Protect Plan could help your guests in each situation:
| Travelers’ top travel insurance needs | Guest Protect Plan Coverage and Service Solutions from CSA Travel Protection |

| Concerns over coverage for a vacation rental | CSA’s Guest Protect plan is specifically designed to provide coverage for stays at vacation rentals. Reservation cancellations can disrupt your inventory flow and upset guests if they lose their non-refundable payments. The Guest Protect plan can help reinforce your cancellation policy, and, since you offer your guests the travel insurance plan, you can help save the day! |
| Health Issues before or during a trip | Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, Travel Delay and Medical and Dental coverages could apply. Also, On Demand Medical Care services can provide immediate access to on-call physicians, medical advice, and even referral to a nearby physician using CSA’s designated provider network of 30,000 physicians and 850,000 service providers worldwide. |
| Hurricane or bad weather affecting travel plans | Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption and Travel Delay coverages could apply. |
