Why should seniors buy a travel insurance plan?

Allianz Global Assistance offers travel insurance plans for seniors aged 60 and older, providing medical coverage to protect against unexpected expenses and complications. Options are available online or via our call center.
  • Emergency health and medical coverage: Travel insurance covers eligible medical and dental expenses not included in your government health plan and unexpected costs if you fall ill or get injured outside your province.
  • Easy purchase: Plans are available for seniors online up to age 64. If you are 65 or older, we provide travel insurance plan options via our contact centre at 1-844-310-1578.
  • Pre-exisiting medical conditions: Eligible conditions stable for 150 days are covered for ages 65+. For ages 64 and under, stability must be 90 days. Coverage is up to the insured sum.
  • Booking window: Ability to purchase a plan up to 730 days from today's date.
  • Right to cancel: If you are not satisfied with your policy, you may cancel it within 10 days of purchase as long as you have not left on your trip and have not experienced an event that would cause you to submit a claim, before you have left on your trip.
  • 24/7 Emergency assistance: Access a Canadian-based call centre anytime, 365 days a year. The team helps locate accredited health care facilities and monitors your care, allowing you to continue your trip or return home for further treatment.

Tip: Be sure to complete the "Total Trip Cost" field when entering a quote in order to have trip cancellation benefits included in the quoted product options.
