We strongly suggest the purchase of travel insurance – not only to protect your investment in travel but also to provide medical assistance due to an emergency once on your trip. Please note that Cancel Anytime insurance MUST be purchased on the same day as making your initial deposit. Also, please note that in order to cover PRE-EXISTING conditions insurance must be purchased within 2 weeks of your initial deposit. You are welcome to use any insurance company of your choice, but many of our clients have found the Allianz product to be reliable & efficient. You can check quotes below or CONTACT US for assistance (and to compare with other providers such as Travelex, if interested).

From minor medical issues to life-threatening situations, Global Rescue’s critical services have been there when they were needed most. Travelers have trusted Global Rescue’s medical and security travel services since 2004. Global Rescue memberships start at $119 and feature the following benefits:
Additionally, Global Rescue and IMG have created one of the industry’s most complete travel insurance products, integrating Global Rescue’s advisory and evacuation services with the financial protection of a comprehensive travel insurance program. Signature Travel Insurance guarantees that a trip is covered no matter what happens.
Highlights:
With a Global Rescue policy travelers have 20 days from their initial trip deposit to purchase a “cancel for any reason” policy and to be eligible for the pre-existing condition waiver. A traveler can purchase their standard Travel Insurance policy any time prior (or even during) a trip if they would like, but would not have access to the pre-departure benefits and anything that occurred prior to the policy effective date would not be covered.
Escape to Shape recommends a Global Rescue Membership with Signature Travel Insurance for your next trip. Visit www.globalrescue.com/escapetoshape or call 617-459-4200 for more information.
