TuGo launches new ******** insurance for Canadian travellers

RICHMOND, B.C. — TuGo is the latest travel insurance provider in Canada to announce ******** insurance for Canadians planning to fly abroad during the ********.

Its newest insurance product covers ******** ********* medical care and quarantine expenses up to $500,000, if the traveller tests positive for and is diagnosed with ******** while on their trip. It also offers a Trip Interruption benefit if the Government of Canada’s current Level 3 ‘avoid non-essential travel’ advisory changes to a Level 4 ‘avoid all travel’ during the trip and the travellers chooses to come home early.

“While we recommend following the Government of Canada’s Level 3 travel advisory, TuGo also recognizes that family, business or other reasons may require some Canadians to travel abroad during the ********,” said Brad Dance, TuGo’s Chief Customer Officer and the Travel Health Insurance Association’s Past President. “For those planning to travel, they should take time to research the various ******** insurance options that have come to market in recent weeks, to ensure they best fit their needs.”

Over the past few weeks, several insurance providers have launched similar *****-related coverage plans including Manulife, Blue Cross, Allianz Global Assistance and more. Top suppliers ranging from airlines to hotels and tour operators are also providing their own insurance plans, including **********, WestJet, Sunwing, Transat, ACV, Hola Sun, Palladium Hotel Group and Sandals & Beaches Resorts.
