✈️ I’ve Already Left for My Trip — Can I Still Get Travel Insurance?

realizeGreat question! If you're already on your trip and realize you forgot to buy travel insurance — here’s what you need to know:

*

🚨 Can You Still Purchase Coverage?

In most cases, yes — but with limitations.
You can still purchase travel insurance up to 48 hours after departing from your home province.
However, if it’s been more than 48 hours since you left, you won’t be eligible to purchase a policy.

Coverage may also have restrictions depending on the insurer and type of plan.

*

⏳ What Happens If You Buy After Departure?

You won’t be covered for anything that’s already happened or ongoing (e.g., an existing illness or injury from before the policy start)

Trip cancellation benefits are not available after departure
