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. At no additional cost, the Atlas
Series now adds coverage for Acts of Terrorism, Complications of Pregnancy and Incidental
Trips home to the industrys leading travel medical insurance plan. State of the art
travel and emergency medical assistance services are part of every Atlas Series plan. In

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.
