[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 559, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.forbes.com/sites/christopherelliott/2018/10/20/what-to-do-when-not-just-any-travel-insurance-will-do/#31ab743976dd'][B]What To Do When Not Just Any Travel Insurance Will Do - Forbes[/B][/URL] To celebrate her 60th birthday, Andrea Shelly booked a trip to Tanzania and Rwanda through Butterfield & Robinson, a luxury tour operator. She planned to bring her adult children on the two-week adventure. But with a $130,000 price tag, Shelly knew that ordinary travel insurance wouldn't do -- and she was right. A few months before her planned departure, one of Shelly's sons got a promotion and the family decided to postpone their African safari. "It didn’t feel like it was appropriate to take so much time off as a newly-minted associate," explains Shelly, a real estate investor from Irvine, Calif. Had Shelly bought a garden-variety travel insurance policy with named perils, she'd be out of luck. A work promotion isn't covered by most travel insurance policies. She'd be on the hook for tens of thousands of dollars in nonrefundable charges. [/QUOTE]
