Please read the Benefits & Exclusions of this plan carefully before submitting your application.

The Atlas Series now automatically includes many new benefits, services and features that make it the best option for individuals and families who travel internationally. announ2.jpg (919 bytes) At no additional cost, the Atlas Series now adds coverage for Acts of Terrorism, Complications of Pregnancy and Incidental Trips home to the industry’s leading travel medical insurance plan.

globe3.gif (350 bytes) Why Buy Travel Insurance? 
The answer is easy. Whether you travel for business or pleasure, international travel involves risk. You may arrive at your destination to find that your luggage with personal items has disappeared. A personal emergency may necessitate your early return to your Home Country. A medical emergency may require hospitalization or even air evacuation. In most cases, your existing insurance will not provide adequate protection for these and other risks. Without appropriate travel insurance, you may be exposed to significant financial liability. The Atlas Series were specially designed to take the risks out of international travel, so you can have an enjoyable and productive trip.
