A multi-destination trip: how to choose insurance

A cross-country trip through many provinces poses different needs from a single-destination trip. Insurance must cover the entire duration and scope of the journey.

Choose a plan for the longest span of the whole trip, from the day you leave home to the day you return. Do not let any leg fall outside the coverage period.

If you travel by several different modes, check whether benefits apply to all. Some plans differentiate by transport type.

Note the itinerary clearly and carry a soft copy of the policy. Where signal is weak, an offline copy lets you check your benefits anytime.
